Hello Joey,

I am thinking to add a "Proxy" info to an host, the same way the Apt.proxy (and HostAptProxy) is working so that all services can (optionnally) tap into this information to setup their need for a http[s] proxy (eg. R, WordPress or other CMS/webapp...).

My idea is to write a 'Proxy.hs' module containing just the few functions to set up the host information (let name it HostProxy), and use it throught a function withProxy taking as argument a function (HostProxy -> Property w) and will return a "Property w"

Is this a reasonnable way to handle the need ? If I code such a module, would anyone else be interested and would such a solution be accepted on the upstream ? Otherwise what would you advise ?

Cheers, and thanks for Propellor !

Serge.
