How do I set proxy in phantomjs

Question

This https://www.npmjs.com/package/phantom#functionality-details page says:

You can also pass command line switches to the phantomjs process by specifying additional args to phantom.create(), eg:

phantom.create '--load-images=no', '--local-to-remote-url-access=yes', (page) ->

or by specifying them in the options* object:

phantom.create {parameters: {'load-images': 'no', 'local-to-remote-url-access': 'yes'}}, (page) ->

These examples are only in coffee script and also they insinuate that the create function can take

create('string',function)

or

create([object object],function)

but really the first parameter expected is the function!

I really wanted to try http://phantomjs.org/api/command-line.html I might have the wrong idea but to me it looks like they can be used in the create function (right before you do the createPage), am I wrong?

I have tried several things, the most logical one is this:

var phantom = require('phantom');
phantom.create(function(browser){
    browser.createPage(function(page){
        page.open('http://example.com/req.php', function() {

            });},{parameters:{'proxy':'98.239.198.83:21320'}});});

So the page gets opened. I know this because I am making req.php save the $_SERVER object to a txt pad but, the REMOTE_ADDR and REMOTE_PORT headers are not the ones in the proxy I have set. They have no effect. I have also tried:

{options:{'proxy':'98.239.198.83:21320'}}

As the docs call that object the options* object *see above^

and

'--proxy=98.239.198.83:21320'

I have also had a dig through the phantom module to find the create function. It is not written in js I can't see it at least. It must be in C++. It looks like this module has been updated but, the examples deep inside the module look like old code.

How do I do this?

EDIT:

var phantom = require('phantom');
phantom.create(function(browser){
    browser.createPage(function(page){

    browser.setProxy('98.239.198.83','21320','http', null, null, function(){

    page.open(
        'http://example.com/req.php', function() {

         });});});});

This produces no error and the page gets scraped but the proxy is ignored.

As for as phantom 2.0.10 version the following code is running very well in my windows machine

  phantom.create(["--proxy=201.172.242.184:15124", "--proxy-type=socks5"])
      .then((instance) => {
          phInstance = instance;
          return instance.createPage();
      })
      .then((page) => {
          sitepage = page;
          return page.open('http://newsdaily.online');
      })
      .then((status) => {
          console.log(status);
          return sitepage.property('title');
      })
      .then((content) => {
          console.log(content);
          sitepage.close();
          phInstance.exit();
      })
      .catch((error) => {
          console.log(error);
          phInstance.exit();
      });

Answer 2

{ parameters: { 'proxy': 'socks://98.239.198.83:21320' } }

They didn't update their docs.
