web proxy support

Closed this issue · 9 comments

Notifier should be aware of system-wide HTTP proxy configuration or at least it needs a way to configure proxy directly.

I agree with you. It must be critical to people who need to use proxies.

I just implemented the feature and place an archive on the web. Please try it out.

Thanks hiroshi! I'll try it out and report you back as soon as I get to the office where I'm behind a proxy.

Looks like --proxy option is not passed to google-wave-notifier.rb.

When I call google-wave-notifier.rb manually from Terminal, everything is OK:
/usr/bin/ruby "/Applications/Unofficial Google Wave Notifier.app/Contents/Resources/google-wave-notifier.rb" login password --proxy host:port

I added a preference item, "Use Web Proxy Settings on System Preferences" in "Advanced" tab. If it is not checked, the app doesn't use proxy settings. Please make sure it is checked.
(However, I think I released the feature is ON by default....)

Yeah, it was ON initially. And I checked and unchecked and restarted the app several times -- nothing helped.

It would be nice to have SOCKS proxy support as well as just the straight HTTPS proxy.

I released version 0.5, which contains https proxy support.
So I close this issue.

Mike,
As for SOCKS proxy, sorry, but I created #13 to simplify issue tracking.
