NAME
LWP::Protocol::connect - Provides HTTP/CONNECT proxy support for LWP::UserAgentSYNOPSIS
use LWP::UserAgent;
$ua = LWP::UserAgent->new();
$ua->proxy('https', 'connect://proxyhost.domain:3128/');
$ua->get('https://www.somesslsite.com');
Proxy Authentication
If you pass the authentication within the userinfo string of the proxy url a Basic authentication header will always be generated and sent to the proxy.
$ua->proxy('https', 'connect://user:pw@proxyhost.domain:3128');
The more general way is to add the credentials of the proxy to the $ua object.
$ua->credentials("localhost:3128", "Squid proxy-caching web server", "user", "pw");
In this case the first request to the proxy will fail with a "407 Proxy Auth. Required". This will cause LWP::UserAgent to choose the right LWP::Authen::<method> module to add the authentication and retry.
DESCRIPTION
The LWP::Protocol::connect module provides support for using https over a proxy via the HTTP/CONNECT method.SEE ALSO
