The proxy at my workplace is specified in a PAC file which is applied to browsers, but not the command prompt/PowerShell. This means I can't use pip, virtualenv or Python libraries that need web access like requests.
I've tried running pip with the pip install package --proxy=username:password@address:port, where username:password are my credentials and where address:port is the last line of the PAC file. However, this still returns ProxyError('Cannot connect to proxy.', error('Tunnel connection failed: 407 Proxy Authorization Required',)
Is there a way to directly use the PAC file as the proxy, or something similar?
pip install package --proxy http://username:password@address:port
