Type of Enhancement

None

Describe the Feature/Enhancement

it would be nice to set a http(s) proxy for podcast downloading, esp. when ABS is hosted behind a firewall.

I am not sure about how to use EXP_PROXY_SUPPORT

  • set an http proxy uri, or
  • set TRUE and then set the actual proxy to environment variable http_proxy ?

here's my docker compose file trying to use a proxy

  audiobookshelf:
    image: advplyr/audiobookshelf:latest
    container_name: "audiobookshelf"
    environment:
      - AUDIOBOOKSHELF_UID=1026
      - AUDIOBOOKSHELF_GID=100
      - http_proxy=http://192.168.3.10:2080
      - https_proxy=http://192.168.3.10:2080
      - no_proxy=localhost,127.0.0.1,192.168.3.10
    restart: always
...

it did not work.

I have not try 'EXP_PROXY_SUPPORT' as I am not sure how to use it yet.

You can just add it as an environment variable.

audiobookshelf:
  image: advplyr/audiobookshelf:latest
  container_name: "audiobookshelf"
  environment:
    - http_proxy=http://192.168.3.10:2080
    - https_proxy=http://192.168.3.10:2080
    - no_proxy=localhost,127.0.0.1,192.168.3.10
    - EXP_PROXY_SUPPORT=1
  restart: always
...

Also AUDIOBOOKSHELF_UID and AUDIOBOOKSHELF_GID no longer do anything.

Works like a charm. Thanks.

@deanishe commented on GitHub (Jan 20, 2026):

I would also like to be able to use a proxy server, but configuring via the Dockerfile doesn't work for me because I'm using ABS on a managed server and have no control over the Docker image or configuration.

I can only configure ABS via the UI or the app config files.
