WSL

WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) runs a Linux environment on Windows. This page covers pointing WSL at the proxy on the Windows host.

Configuration#

WSL uses the proxy through environment variables.

Read the host IP from /etc/resolv.conf and set the proxy environment variables:

export hostip=$(cat /etc/resolv.conf | grep -oP '(?<=nameserver\ ).*')export http_proxy="http://$hostip:7890"export https_proxy="http://$hostip:7890"

export hostip=$(cat /etc/resolv.conf | grep -oP '(?<=nameserver\ ).*')export http_proxy="http://$hostip:7890"export https_proxy="http://$hostip:7890"
