I believe Michael Halstead is pretty much ready to roll that out, but before he does we need to make sure Toaster can still retrieve information via the REST API when we switch to https by default. 61390 1 elliot.smith 2016-04-19 11:24:05 +0000 Paul and Belen have tested this with Toaster. I've done a quick verification that urllib2 can access https sites (urllib2 is what we're using in LayerIndexLayerSource.update(), which fetches the layer index JSON). However, we have some code in LayerIndexLayerSource which looks up the http_proxy env variable and makes use of this. If Toaster is using https to access the layer index in an env with proxies, we will need to get the https_proxy instead, so we may need some code changes here. 61391 2 elliot.smith 2016-04-19 11:36:07 +0000 It looks like urllib2 automatically figures out the proxy settings; the code just looks them up for the purposes of printing debug output, so the code changes are minor. 61392 3 elliot.smith 2016-04-19 12:22:11 +0000 Submitted a patch to show https_proxy in error output: https://lists.yoctoproject.org/pipermail/toaster/2016-April/004469.html The code needs no additional changes, as urllib2 automatically uses any http_proxy and https_proxy settings in the environment. 63627 4 elliot.smith 2016-07-04 15:38:25 +0000 Submitted v2 patch: https://lists.yoctoproject.org/pipermail/toaster/2016-June/004904.html 63655 5 elliot.smith 2016-07-05 15:46:27 +0000 Michael is making changing in this area of the code, including better capturing of errors, so marking this OBSOLETE.
