How to disable a proxy when using the Guzzle HTTP client?

I'm trying to call a web service on a clients server using the Guzzle library - but the server have a proxy so I'm getting a 404 error in my code.

If I ssh into the clients server and try

wget http://www.mywebsite.com/mywebservice

I get an error 

Resolving proxy.theirdomainname.com (proxy.theirdomainname.com)... xx.xx.xx.xx
Connecting to proxy.theirdomainname.com (proxy.theirdomainname.com)|xx.xx.xx.xx|:80...
failed: Connection timed out.

But if I use

wget --no-proxy http://www.mywebsite.com/mywebservice

I get a result

Resolving www.mywebsite.com (www.mywebsite.com)... xx.xx.xx.xx
Connecting to www.mywebsite.com (www.mywebsite.com)|xx.xx.xx.xx|:80... connected.
HTTP request sent, awaiting response... 200 OK
Length: unspecified [text/html]

I can see an option to set the proxy in the Guzzle documentation - http://guzzle.readthedocs.org/en/latest/http-client/client.html#proxy

But how do I disable using a proxy altogether? Or will this be a server setting?

EDIT:

$request = $client->get($this->url(), array('proxy' => ''))
                  ->setHeader('Accept', 'text/xml');

$response = $request->send();
var_dump($response);

Result :

Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Guzzle\Http\Exception\ClientErrorResponseException'
with message 'Client error response [status code] 404 [reason phrase] Not Found [url] http://mywebsite.com'
in /vendor/guzzle/guzzle/src/Guzzle/Http/Exception/BadResponseException.php:44

If you are using Guzzlehttp6 :

  • if you want to specify a different proxy for a given type of protocol :

     $client->request('GET', 'your_url_here', [
'proxy' => [
'http'  => 'tcp://localhost:8125', // Use this proxy with "http"
'https' => 'tcp://localhost:9124', // Use this proxy with "https",
'no' => ['.mit.edu', 'foo.com']    // Don't use a proxy with these
   ]
]);

  • If you want to disable proxy for all your queries : 

    $client->request('GET','your_url_here',['proxy'=>'']);

    Link to the official documentation.

It's because Guzzle\Client auto-magically sets the proxy looking at your system environment variables. It doesn't matter if you're on Linux or Windows:

  280:         // Use the standard Linux HTTP_PROXY and HTTPS_PROXY if set
  281:         if ($proxy = getenv('HTTP_PROXY')) {
  282:             $settings['proxy']['http'] = $proxy;
  283          }
  284  
  285:         if ($proxy = getenv('HTTPS_PROXY')) {
  286:             $settings['proxy']['https'] = $proxy;
  287          }

So if you previously set your proxy using something like 

set HTTP_PROXY=http://your.proxy.local:8080
set HTTPS_PROXY=http://your.proxy.local:8080

then this proxy setting will be picked up.

You have to enforce an empty proxy like Marcell Fülöp said.
