Cannot submit on Windows using proxy

The Animal-AI Olympics
1

Hi,
I am on Windows behind a proxy and have env settings:

    http_proxy=http://proxy.xxx:8080/
    https_proxy=http://proxy.xxx:8080/

which allow me to communicate with outside world

When I tried to make submission by:

evalai push submission:latest --phase animalai-main-396

I got the following error:

evalai push submission:latest --phase animalai-main-396
Traceback (most recent call last):

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

I had the similar problem with my Dockerfile (see:
https://github.com/beyretb/AnimalAI-Olympics/issues/50)
which I resolved by adding ENV setting inside the Dockerfile:

ENV http_proxy "http://proxy.xxx:8080"
ENV https_proxy "http://proxy.xxx:8080"

I am sure that these two lines should be added somewhere in some config file and I need your help.

I tried to add http_proxy settings in .docker\config.json at several “default” Windows places without any success.
I needed the environment variables to be set automatically within the container when a new container was started. I achieved this by adding http_proxy settings to internal docker profile.

Thus the solution is:

sudo vi /var/lib/boot2docker/profile
export HTTP_PROXY=http://proxy.xxx:8080
export HTTPS_PROXY=http://proxy.xxx:8080
$ sudo /etc/init.d/docker restart

After that I was able to make a submission by evalai push <image>:<tag>
