Describe the feature you'd love to see

module.exports = {
  //...
   devServer: {
      proxy: {
        '/api': {
         target: 'https://other-server.example.com',
         secure: false,
      },
    },
  },
};

for the above config, my computer can not visit the target address directly, so I have to set a proxy for the target address.

In the Terminal, I can get the response by "curl" the target address with the below setting
export https_proxy=http://10.xxx.xx.xx:3128
export http_proxy=http://10.xxx.xx.xx:3128
export no_proxy="127.0.0.1,localhost,10...*"

But when I run "yarn start“, the API requests to the target address directly will fail because the above proxy setting does not work for the devServer.

So I'm wondering if there is a way to set a proxy to the target address like this:

module.exports = {
  //...
  devServer: {
    proxy: {
         '/api': {
          target: 'https://other-server.example.com',
          httpsProxyForTarget: "http://10.xxx.xx.xx:3128"
          httpProxyForTarget: "http://10.xxx.xx.xx:3128"
         secure: false,
      },
    },
  },
};

Thanks!!!!
