Work Behind Proxy

Work Behind Proxy

Many easy tasks can’t be easily done if you work behind proxy.

Snap

sudo snap set system proxy.http=http://<username>:<password>@<proxy_address>:<proxy_port>
sudo snap set system proxy.https=https://<username>:<password>@<proxy_address>:<proxy_port>

Pip

Reference https://leifengblog.net/blog/how-to-use-pip-behind-a-proxy/

sudo pip install --proxy=https://<username>:<password>@<proxy_address>:<proxy_port> somepackage

npm

Use these commands:

npm config set proxy http://username:password@host:port
npm config set https-proxy http://username:password@host:port

Or you can edit directly your ~/.npmrc file:

proxy=http://username:password@host:port
https-proxy=http://username:password@host:port
https_proxy=http://username:password@host:port

Git

git config --global http.proxy http://<username>:<password>@<proxy_address>:<proxy_port>
git config --global https.proxy https://<username>:<password>@<proxy_address>:<proxy_port>

Apt

Docker

sudo mkdir -p /etc/systemd/system/docker.service.d
sudo vi /etc/systemd/system/docker.service.d/proxy.conf

Add the following contents, changing the values to match your environment.

[Service]
Environment="HTTP_PROXY=http://<username>:<password>@<proxy_address>:<proxy_port>/"
Environment="HTTPS_PROXY=https://<username>:<password>@<proxy_address>:<proxy_port>/"
Environment="NO_PROXY="localhost,127.0.0.1,::1"

## Reload the daemon configuration.
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
## Restart Docker to apply our changes.
sudo systemctl restart docker.service
## run docker without sudo
sudo usermod -aG docker ${USER}
su - ${USER}

Gradle

Add your proxy settings to ~/.gradle/gradle.properties

systemProp.http.proxyHost=www.somehost.org
systemProp.http.proxyPort=8080
systemProp.http.proxyUser=userid
systemProp.http.proxyPassword=password
systemProp.http.nonProxyHosts=*.nonproxyrepos.com|localhost

VS Code Remote

If your remote host is behind a proxy, you may need to set the HTTP_PROXY or HTTPS_PROXY environment variable on the SSH host. Open your ~/.bashrc file add the following (replacing proxy.fqdn.or.ip:3128 with the appropriate hostname / IP and port):

export HTTP_PROXY=http://proxy.fqdn.or.ip:3128
export HTTPS_PROXY=$HTTP_PROXY

# Or if an authenticated proxy
export HTTP_PROXY=http://username:password@proxy.fqdn.or.ip:3128
export HTTPS_PROXY=$HTTP_PROXY

In my case, when enabled java extension, I need gradle proxy setup as well.

Check “Set HTTP_PROXY / HTTPS_PROXY on the remote host” in here
