RCurl default proxy settings

Question

I\'m working here behind proxy so I need to configure my connection. It works well with defining options list and calling getURL:

opts <- list(
  proxy            


        

Answer 1

I regret to hurry up posting question. The solution was really at the hand, at RCurl FAQ page. There is an option RCurlOptions which can be defined at the Rprofile.site file of R

But I'm still in trouble because RGoogleAnalytics library seems to overwrite this.

For completeness, here is the code:

opts <- list(
  proxy         = "http://****",
  proxyusername = "****", 
  proxypassword = "*****", 
  proxyport     = ****
)

options(RCurlOptions = opts)

getURL("http://stackoverflow.com")
