omniauth behind proxy

omniauth, ruby, sinatra

Solution

I figured it out, I think..

ue OmniAuth::Builder do
  provider :linkedin, "KEY", "SECRET", {:client_options => { :proxy =>\
 ENV["HTTP_PROXY"] || ENV["http_proxy"]  }}
end

Problem

I have a small app using omniauth and I'm testing it with LinkedIn provider (omniauth-linkedin). Unfortunately my test environment is behind a proxy. So I need to access linkedin through a proxy. How do I set the proxy address so the request to linkedin will succeed? It does not seem to be obeying the http_proxy settings.
