HTTPoison proxy option not working
I have this curl request
curl -x "http://proxy-server.com:8001" -k "https://httpbin.org/ip"
The curl request is going through the proxy server and I’m getting at each hit a new ip address (which is the expected behavior).
But when I try with HTTPoison it’s not working as expected.
I tried these codes
HTTPoison.get!("https://www.httpbin.org/ip", [], [proxy: {"http://proxy-server.com"}])
HTTPoison.get!("https://www.httpbin.org/ip", [], [{:proxy, "http://proxy-server.com"}])
What am I doing wrong ?

The proxy option expects either a binary or a two-element tuple of {host, port}, so that first one is not going to work.
As for the second one, the URL doesn’t have a port specified like the one in the curl command does. Maybe that’s the problem?
It would be useful to get more detail on “not working as expected” - what happens (error message, stack trace, etc) when you attempt those HTTPoison calls? I don’t have a proxy server handy to test with, so I can’t see what you’re seeing.
