You would need to modify that example as such:

proxy = URI(ENV["xlroutesSTATIC_URL"])

blockio = BlockIo::Client.new(:api_key => ENV['API_KEY'], :pin => ENV['PIN'], :version => 2, :proxy => {     
    hostname: proxy.host,
    port: proxy.port,
    username: proxy.user,
    password: proxy.password    
  }
)
