username and password for socket.http.PROXY

[rbourgeon]

Hello,
I want to connect to a proxy that requires a Basic authentication.

In my script, I wrote something like this:

Code:

socket.http.PROXY = http://username:password@proxy_ip:proxy_port

But it doesn't work.

However it seems that the proxy Basic authentication seems to be implemented in the luasocket library since August 24th 2015 (see here on GitHub)


does that mean that the luasocket version implemented in the LogicMachine is older than that?

• If yes, would it be possible to update it to a newer version in the next firmware?
  
• If no, what did I do wrong in my implementation?
  

Best regards
