node.js set proxy for http,https and ws connections globally

Question

My problem is the following: In an app I am working on I need to use http, https and websocket connections all from behind a corporate proxy. All of these connections are established from submodules some of them thirdparty and with no option to specify a proxy server.

My question is: Is there a way to set a global proxy value that is honored by all submodules ?

Answer 1

Checkout this global-tunnel library . It might suit your needs.

To make all HTTP and HTTPS connections go through an outbound HTTP proxy

It may not work with websockets however.
