Set a Proxy

In telegram.bot: Develop a 'Telegram Bot' with R

knitr::opts_chunk$set(
  collapse = TRUE,
  comment = "#>"
)

If you want to set a proxy, you can do it by passing an httr::use_proxy instance into the request_config parameter when calling the Bot object:

bot <- Bot(token = "TOKEN", request_config = httr::use_proxy(...))

Also, the same request_config parameter can be passed through the Updater object:

updater <- Updater(token = "TOKEN", request_config = httr::use_proxy(...))

The details for the proxy settings can be found in ?httr::use_proxy.
