can't use rhsecapi from behind a proxy

[shingkong]

my server cannot access rhsecapi directly, tried using http_proxy but failed

Note from maintainer: since rhsecapi uses python's request module, this should be supported via environment variables

Hello @shingkong
That's a great point. We should totally implement proxy support.

Okay @shingkong ... You can actually accomplish this now with environment variables. E.g.:

$ export HTTP_PROXY="http://10.10.1.10:3128"

Or if your proxy requires HTTP Basic Auth, this should work:

$ export HTTP_PROXY="http://user:pass@10.10.1.10:3128"

If you're dealing with a SOCKS proxy, well, that's another story. Let me know.

thanks Ryan, i found that's my environment variables not correct, set https_proxy fixed this.

Glad to hear it's working for you now @shingkong
