Change Intellij HTTP proxy from command line

According to our company policy we need to change password regularly, which means I have to update the proxy authentication password. I have a script that solves all of this, except for the Intellij proxy setting.

Therefor, my question is: Is it possible to change Intellij IDEA's HTTP proxy setting from the command line? The setting I'm refering to is Appearance & Behavior > System Settings > HTTP Proxy in Intellij.

I'm using IntelliJ IDEA 2016.2.4

No there is not. The password value is stored in the file .IntelliJIdea/config/options/proxy.settings.pwd but it is encrypted. Otherwise your script could modify it. You might be able to dig through the source code and see how the encryption works to see if you can replicate it in your script.
