Is there a way to allow http urls in rust http outcall for local development?

I’m trying to connect to a server running locally while developing rust canister locally. I got the following error while connecting to local server
Error:

[Canister bkyz2-fmaaa-aaaaa-qaaaq-cai] Url need to specify https scheme

you can create https proxy for your http server.
Maybe this will work https://github.com/cameronhunter/local-ssl-proxy

I tried using self-signed certificate with proxy but got the following error

 Failed to connect: error trying to connect: The certificate was not trusted.

Actually this was because I didn’t restart dfx after I ran the proxy. Restarting everything fixed the issue.

I used mkcert for self signed certificate and using proxy worked

Thank you @infu
