Errors when connecting via proxy about btcrpcclient HOT 7 CLOSED

Does
Proxy: "127.0.0.1:1080",
work?

from btcrpcclient.

No it doesn't. I'm getting;

parse 127.0.0.1:1080: first path segment in URL cannot contain colon

with that configuration.

from btcrpcclient.

http://127.0.0.1:1080

from btcrpcclient.

Getting;

Post http://192.168.1.10:8332: EOF

when prefixing the http:// scheme. Same as when prefixing with socks:// as the scheme.

Have managed to work around this by removing;

var proxyFunc func(*http.Request) (*url.URL, error)
if config.Proxy != "" {
	proxyURL, err := url.Parse(config.Proxy)
	if err != nil {
		return nil, err
	}
	proxyFunc = http.ProxyURL(proxyURL)
}

and instead overwriting the client.Transport with a new one where Dial() is provided by socks.Proxy{}. It kinda resembles the solution which is implemented for the websocket proxy configuration further down.

A little stuck for time, at the moment, but can test and submit a patch this weekend if it would be helpful.
