Using Proxy

Appknox client and CLI both supports HTTP and HTTPS proxy. While using the client, if you need to set-up a proxy then please follow the example below

from appknox.client import Appknox

client = Appknox(
        access_token="Your-Access-Token",  #  This is your access token which you can get from developer setting
        https_proxy="http://proxy.local",  # Use https_proxy by default since cloud server connects to https service
        insecure=True,                     # Use insecure connections, because proxies might have their own set of certificates which maynot be trusted
    )                                      # Insecure connections are not reccomended though

To use it in CLI example:

$ export HTTPS_PROXY=http://127.0.0.1:8080 
$ appknox --insecure login
Username:

Note: Please avoid using --insecure flag or setting insecure=True in client, this will allow an attacker to perform MITM attack, but this might be required for proxies to work alongside.
