# `--noproxy`

Comma-separated list of hosts for which not to use a proxy, if one is
specified. The only wildcard is a single `*` character, which matches all
hosts, and effectively disables the proxy. Each name in this list is matched
as either a domain which contains the hostname, or the hostname itself. For
example, `local.com` would match `local.com`, `local.com:80`, and
`www.local.com`, but not `www.notlocal.com`.

To use international hostnames in this list, add the punycode version of the
hostname.

This option overrides the environment variables that disable the proxy
(`no_proxy` and `NO_PROXY`) (added in 7.53.0). If there is an environment
variable disabling a proxy, you can set the no proxy list to "" to override
it.

IP addresses specified to this option can be provided using CIDR notation
(added in 7.86.0): an appended slash and number specifies the number of
network bits out of the address to use in the comparison. For example
`192.168.0.0/16` would match all addresses starting with `192.168`.
