[Bug] Missing HTTP Proxy Setting

[MovisLi]

Describe the bug
I notice the document metioned Proxy Network in User Settings & Enviroment Variables, but I can't find this setting in source codes anywhere. So is there some thing wrong in the document or the codes?

To Reproduce

1. Refer to other enviroment variables, I think HTTP_PROXY or HTTPS_PROXY should found in openbb_core/env.py. However it isn't.
2. Then I check the session definition file openbb_core/utils/client.py, there is a class named ClientSession, but it don't use proxies parameter durning initialization.
3. Then I check the request tool function amake_request, make_request in file openbb_core/provider/utils/helpers.py, it also doesn't use proxies parameter.

So, is HTTP_PROXY and HTTPS_PROXY deprecated?

Thanks for answering my problem.

Hi,

Thanks for the report. The issue arises from using both requests and aiohttp, and only requests reads the environment variables by default. I have added the necessary setting in the aiohttp.ClientSession initialization (#6640) to allow for the same behavior from all three HTTP IO helper functions - make_request, amake_request, and amake_requests - which should cover all HTTP requests throughout the library.

Note that the vast majority of requests will be HTTPS and not HTTP, but for full coverage define both addresses.
