Add proxy support for online plugins
Last modified: 2018-09-24 09:17:11 UTC
Some of the online media(youtube/flickr) can not be accessed directly, it is better to add proxy support for the online media. It's better to add a unified way to grilo. For example: grl-youtube-proxy=x.x.x.x:8080 grilo-test-ui
As Damien mentioned on mailing list, the proper way to do proxy support in general would probably be libproxy. However, this might not be what Joshua wants if he's looking for a special "youtube proxy"...
I think the use of libproxy would be the right thing. If you need to use a proxy to reach the web, then those settings should be used by grilo too. The libproxy API is rather simple (only 3 functions: init/use/free)
We actually just need to use a recent libsoup to get proxy support coming from the system configuration. I believe that works now. Are there particular plugins which don't work?
