Bug: External Needs Ignores Proxy

[hoe-jo]

Currently the Multi Repo Docs build fails behind a proxy server. It looks like the Proxy Settings are ignored. On my system a different port for the Proxy is configured but the build uses the HTTPS standard port:
HTTPSConnectionPool(host='eclipse-score.github.io', port=443)

Download the file via wget works as it connects through the proxy.

The Proxy is set via the Environment Variable HTTP(S)_PROXY

This should be 'hopefully' resolved by using the MODULE route. We will need a release of score to implement this.

If it's fixed easily let's go for it. However, generally we do not support proxy setups in S-CORE. This affects dozens of tools etc.

If this needs to be changed, that would be a new requirement for infrastructure. If this needs to be changed, let's address it in tech lead circle, due to the significant implications (effort).

This solution I mentioned above would basically be something we planned to support anyway. It was the 'bazel module' way of getting the needs.json so the 'release' version.

There could theoretically be a more 'bazel' way to get it via http_file, but I have not had luck getting that to work now, although have not put much time into it.

@MaximilianSoerenPollak then we close this ticket as won't fix?

[MaximilianSoerenPollak]

I would leave it open as for now, and if this won't work with the Module approach (which I would be very confused why it wouldn't) then I would close as no-fix as then it would require additional solution that wasn't intended so far.

Will be fixed by eclipse-score/docs-as-code#40

[MaximilianSoerenPollak]

This should be fixed today. Will implement the 'module' pathway into process once score has a new release.
