Hi,

How common is a setup where external resources requiring HTTP are used with Foreman behind a HTTP proxy?

I believe, this is very common in enterprise environments. Usually any internet access is blocked for security reasons and only connections via a proxy server are allowed. The proxy ususally does a MITM attack to be able to investigate encrypted traffic. While this does make sense in some cases, don't get me started why it does not make any sense in others.

Comments?

I think especially access to all the docker registries out there is something a corporate it-security team would want to go through a proxy server. Setting a proxy server on a server via environment variables (http_proxy) is quite easy with systemd unit files. However that may lead to problems when the client doesn't respect the 'no_proxy' environment variable and suddenly all requests to a smart proxy are routed via the http proxy. This is problematic when smart-proxy is on the same network and not reachable via the proxy server.
I personally prefer only to have an explicit option in a settings file.
