How to clear https proxy setting of NPM?

Question

How can I clear the previous ssl proxy setting of NPM? well, I search a lot, but all post I got is mainly about how to set proxy in corporate network.

In my case (Linux Mint 16 based on Ubuntu), I had to:

1. npm config delete https-proxy, and also

2. clear the https_proxy Bash environment parameter — oddly enough, although I cannot find this behavior documented anywhere, npm fallbacks to https_proxy:

   $ http_proxy='' https_proxy='' npm config get https-proxy
   null
   $ http_proxy='' xxhttps_proxy='' npm config get https-proxy
