New issue 53 by pathensley: Patch to allow setting global proxy uri.
http://code.google.com/p/pywebkitgtk/issues/detail?id=53

There is an Ubuntu Launchpad ticket complaining about the inability to set
the Webkit proxy url in recent releases:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pywebkitgtk/+bug/424833?comments=all

I've created a patch which adds a "set_proxy" method to
webkit/webkitmodule.c. I'll submit it to the Ubuntu package maintainer as
well. Hopefully this solves the problem for some folks.

good job~

I use this code to setting global proxy uri::

{{{

import gtk, webkit
import ctypes
libgobject = ctypes.CDLL('/usr/lib/libgobject-2.0.so.0')
libwebkit = ctypes.CDLL('/usr/lib/libsoup-2.4.so.1')
libsoup = ctypes.CDLL('/usr/lib/libsoup-2.4.so.1')
libwebkit = ctypes.CDLL('/usr/lib/libwebkit-1.0.so')

proxy_uri = libsoup.soup_uri_new('http://127.0.0.1:8000')

session = libwebkit.webkit_get_default_session()
libgobject.g_object_set(session, "proxy-uri", proxy_uri, None)

import gtk, webkit; w = gtk.Window() ; s = gtk.ScrolledWindow() ; v =
webkit.WebView() ; s.add(v); w.add(s) ; w.show_all()

v.open('http://www.youtube.com')

}}}

Thanks for the code, jhuangjiahua, it works for me with minor changes in
library filenames. Is there a way to avoid hardcoding these filenames?
I'm afraid I will need to use this code until pywebkitgtk with the new
set_proxy method gets into Debian.

Is this ever going to get released? Or is pywebkitgtk a dead project? This
issue was patched almost 2 years ago and still not released as far as I can
tell.

i used the following code (PyGObject based) without problems in ubuntu
12.04:


from gi.repository import WebKit
from gi.repository import Soup

proxy_uri = Soup.URI.new("http://127.0.0.1:3128")
session = WebKit.get_default_session()
session.set_property("proxy-uri",proxy_uri)

That's using some other library. You get this library from "import webkit"
