Proxy auth

[marcoroganovic]

Hello, thanks for the convenient library.
I have one question regarding proxy usage, can I pass authentication for a proxy?

@marcoroganovic Sorry i'm afraid that i don't understand your mean. Could you give me an example? Or i guess you are saying the Authorization header?

@tokers Hey, thanks for replying.

Basically, I need to do next:

1. Connect domain to some VPS
2. On that domain setup OpenResty configs
3. Once someone hits those domains I need to set headers like host, authorization, user-agent
4. And then to forward that request through some dedicated proxy in order to not show servers IP

@tokers Hi, any opinion on this?

[tokers]

In my opinion, the process of authorization is not bound with lua-resty-requests, you can prepare these authorization related headers first and use them when calling methods provided by this library.

What I'm making is a small crawler and I need to change IP addresses, to avoid certain limits on a single IP, can this client library be used like that?
