php behind a proxy

// Setup proxy settings in PHP from code:

$auth = base64_encode('username:password');

$opts = array(

'http' => array (

'method'=>'GET',

'proxy'=>'147.67.117.13:8012',

'request_fulluri' => true,

'header'=> array("Proxy-Authorization: Basic $auth", "Authorization: Basic $auth")

),

'https' => array (

'method'=>'GET',

'proxy'=>'147.67.117.13:8012',

'request_fulluri' => true,

'header'=> array("Proxy-Authorization: Basic $auth", "Authorization: Basic $auth")

)

);

$context = stream_context_create($opts);

$result = file_get_contents($url, null, $context);

// See file installer.php for installing composer

First of all, download composer

$curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer > installer.php

and run

$php installer.php

// setup proxy from the environment settings (~/.bashrc)
