Docker behind corporate Proxy - using only http

General
1

Hi all,

Does anyone have idea how to fix the following problem:

I have a corporate proxy which looks like this:

https_proxy=http://company-proxy.abc.com:7443
http_proxy=http://company-proxy.abc.com:7443

I was able to set proxy for Docker itself and to most of my containers, but there is one container/app which vendor said that they don’t support https to http proxy (see top https_proxy example above). Their application needs to talk to https proxy.

Is there any way to tunnel traffic and trick application so it thinks that it talks to https proxy, but in reality traffic is forwarded to http proxy?

Thank you

Since the app would know about the proxy url, I guess you can only setup an HTTPS proxy locally or anywhere which forwards requests to the HTTP proxy
