How to use vagrant in a proxy environment?

Question

My company\'s network is using proxy. So when I use vagrant up, it showed me a 401 permission error.

How can I do some setting to use vagrant?

Answer 1

In PowerShell, you could set the http_proxy and https_proxy environment variables like so:

$env:http_proxy="http://proxy:3128"
$env:https_proxy="http://proxy:3128"

Answer 2

The question does not mention the VM Provider but in my case, I use Virtual Box under the same environment. There is an option in the Virtual Box GUI that I needed to enable in order to make it work. Is located in the Virtual Box app preferences: File >> Preferences... >> Proxy. Once I configured this, I was able to work without problems. Hope this tip can also help you guys.

Install proxyconf:

vagrant plugin install vagrant-proxyconf

Configure your Vagrantfile:

config.proxy.http     = "http://yourproxy:8080"
config.proxy.https    = "http://yourproxy:8080"
config.proxy.no_proxy = "localhost,127.0.0.1"

Answer 4

In MS Windows this works for us:

set http_proxy=< proxy_url >
set https_proxy=< proxy_url >

And the equivalent for *nix:

export http_proxy=< proxy_url >
export https_proxy=< proxy_url >

If you actually do want your proxy configurations and plugin installations to be in your Vagrantfile, for example if you're making a Vagrantfile just for your corporate environment and can't have users editing environment variables, this was the answer for me:

ENV['http_proxy']  = 'http://proxyhost:proxyport'
ENV['https_proxy'] = 'http://proxyhost:proxyport'

# Plugin installation procedure from http://stackoverflow.com/a/28801317
required_plugins = %w(vagrant-proxyconf)

plugins_to_install = required_plugins.select { |plugin| not Vagrant.has_plugin? plugin }
if not plugins_to_install.empty?
  puts "Installing plugins: #{plugins_to_install.join(' ')}"
  if system "vagrant plugin install #{plugins_to_install.join(' ')}"
    exec "vagrant #{ARGV.join(' ')}"
  else
    abort "Installation of one or more plugins has failed. Aborting."
  end
end

Vagrant.configure(VAGRANTFILE_API_VERSION) do |config|
  config.proxy.http     = "#{ENV['http_proxy']}"
  config.proxy.https    = "#{ENV['https_proxy']}"
  config.proxy.no_proxy = "localhost,127.0.0.1"
  # and so on

(If you don't, just set them as environment variables like the other answers say and refer to them from env in config.proxy.http(s) directives.)

Auto detect your proxy settings and inject them in all your vagrant VM

install the proxy plugin

vagrant plugin install vagrant-proxyconf

add this conf to you private/user VagrantFile (it will be executed for all your projects) :

vi $HOME/.vagrant.d/Vagrantfile

---

Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
  puts "proxyconf..."
  if Vagrant.has_plugin?("vagrant-proxyconf")
    puts "find proxyconf plugin !"
    if ENV["http_proxy"]
      puts "http_proxy: " + ENV["http_proxy"]
      config.proxy.http     = ENV["http_proxy"]
    end
    if ENV["https_proxy"]
      puts "https_proxy: " + ENV["https_proxy"]
      config.proxy.https    = ENV["https_proxy"]
    end
    if ENV["no_proxy"]
      config.proxy.no_proxy = ENV["no_proxy"]
    end
  end
end

now up your VM !
