Disable SSL cert check for code server running behind proxy

[khayamgondal]

I am running code server behind a corporate proxy. When trying to download and install an extension I see following error. Is there a way to disable the SSL check?

Note: I have Proxy Strick SSL disabled

I am running code server like code-server --bind-addr 0.0.0.0:8080 --auth password --cert

Browsers require valid certificates for service workers by default. If you can, I would try to get the certificate trusted by the system or the browser. But if this is not possible, in Chrome at least it is possible to disable this with chrome://flags/#unsafely-treat-insecure-origin-as-secure
