Using proxy socks5

[arsalanses]

Is it possible to config socks5 proxy with athens on servers that has not pure internet access?

Are you wanting to use SOCKS5 to access Athens or do you want Athens to use SOCKS5 when accessing VCS urls?

I want Athens to use SOCKS5 actually

The flow of communication here is that a Go client talks to Athens, Athens talks to a Go client on the Athens host, which in turn talks to Git which talks to VCS hosts.

There's two ways to achieve this that I can think of:

1. Set git config --global http.proxy socks5://<host:port>.
2. http_proxy=socks5://<host:port> go mod download -json.

The way to achieve 1 is by taking over Athens' environment on a virtual machine or container and adding a line that sets that parameter.

The way to achieve 2 is by setting http_proxy=socks5://<host:port> via GoBinaryEnvvars

Let me know if either of those work!
