I'd like to use the following code snippet to fetch the page, but an empty string was responded.

const { client } = require('request-compose');

client({
  url: 'https://google.com',
  proxy: process.env.https_proxy,
}).then(({ res, body }) => {
  // body is ''
  console.log('body:', body);
}).catch((err) => {
  console.log(err);
});
$ export https_proxy=http://127.0.0.1:8888

$ curl https://google.com
<HTML><HEAD><meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;charset=utf-8">
<TITLE>301 Moved</TITLE></HEAD><BODY>
<H1>301 Moved</H1>
The document has moved
<A HREF="https://www.google.com/">here</A>.
</BODY></HTML>


$ node .

For HTTPS you have to use a tunnel agent:

var tunnel = require('tunnel')
var agent = tunnel.httpsOverHttp({
  proxy: {
    host: 'localhost',
    port: 8888
  }
})

Then in your script you pass the agent instead:

client({
  url: 'https://google.com',
  agent,
})

Also you might want to suppress certificate errors:

NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED=0 node script.js
