YARP behind a lan webproxy

[johanhallgrengiszeal]

I have used YARP for a while but now I have a new situation where the application must pass a lan proxy to reach internet.

Whithout any changes the yarp-app returns Bad Gatway (502)

I have tried to set the defaultProxy setting in web.config and it worked for a regualar ashx-page, but did not change the function in the yarp-app, it just returns Bad Gatway (502).

I found some information about WebProxy here in the soure code but no example that I understund and no example/information if it could be set in the appsetting-file.

Any help would be appreciated.

Yes, the WebProxy can be specified through the configuration file (we've just missed documenting it, sorry :)).

The proxy configuration is defined by WebProxyConfig and goes under the HttpClient config:

{
  "Clusters": {
    "cluster1": {
      "HttpClient": {
        "WebProxy": {
          "Address": "http://my-proxy"
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

Hey, can you share what issues you were hitting here before making it work? Is there anything we can do to make it easier in the future?

Yeah, the struggle is real... :)
I think a flag "UseSystemProxy" or "UseDefaultProxy" would be good...

Any insight on why you want to be special by ignoring all the "default" .NET proxy stuff?

I just typed wrong in the appsetting-file☹ But improved documentation would be great!
