A Vagrant plugin that configures the virtual machine to use specified proxies. This is useful for example in case you are behind a corporate proxy server, or you have a caching proxy (for example polipo).
The plugin can set:
- generic
http_proxy
etc. environment variables that many programs support - default proxy configuration for all Chef provisioners
- proxy configuration for Apt
- proxy configuration for Docker
- proxy configuration for Git
- proxy configuration for npm
- proxy configuration for PEAR
- proxy configuration for Subversion
- proxy configuration for Yum
- simple proxy configuration for Windows
Install the plugin:
vagrant plugin install vagrant-proxyconf
To configure all possible software on all Vagrant VMs, add the following to $HOME/.vagrant.d/Vagrantfile (or to a project specific Vagrantfile):
Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
if Vagrant.has_plugin?("vagrant-proxyconf")
config.proxy.http = "http://192.168.0.2:3128/"
config.proxy.https = "http://192.168.0.2:3128/"
config.proxy.no_proxy = "localhost,127.0.0.1,.example.com"
end
# ... other stuff
end
This plugin requires Vagrant 1.2 or newer (downloads).
The plugin is supposed to be compatible with all Vagrant providers and other plugins. Please file an issue if this is not the case. The following providers are confirmed to work: AWS, Digital Ocean, VirtualBox, VMware Fusion.
For the proxy configuration to take effect for vagrant-omnibus plugin, version 1.1.1 or newer of it should be used.
Install using standard Vagrant plugin installation method: vagrant plugin install vagrant-proxyconf
. See the wiki for instructions to install a pre-release version.
The plugin hooks itself to all Vagrant commands triggering provisioning (e.g. vagrant up
, vagrant provision
, etc.). The proxy configurations are written just before provisioners are run.
Proxy settings can be configured in Vagrantfile. In the common case that you want to use the same configuration in all Vagrant machines, you can use $HOME/.vagrant.d/Vagrantfile or environment variables. Platform specific settings are only used on virtual machines that support them (i.e. Apt configuration on Debian based systems), so there is no harm using global configuration.
Project specific Vagrantfile overrides global settings. Environment variables override both.
It is a good practise to wrap plugin specific configuration with Vagrant.has_plugin?
checks so the user's Vagrantfiles do not break if plugin is uninstalled or Vagrantfile shared with people not having the plugin installed. (For Vagrant 1.2 you have to use if defined?(VagrantPlugins::ProxyConf)
instead.)
It's a common case that you want all possible connections to pass through the same proxy. This will set the default values for all other proxy configuration keys. It also sets default proxy configuration for all Chef Solo and Chef Client provisioners.
Many programs (wget, curl, yum, etc.) can be configured to use proxies with http_proxy
or HTTP_PROXY
etc. environment variables. This configuration will be written to /etc/profile.d/proxy.sh and /etc/environment on the guest.
Also sudo will be configured to preserve the variables. This requires that sudo in the VM is configured to support "sudoers.d", i.e. /etc/sudoers contains line #includedir /etc/sudoers.d
.
Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
if Vagrant.has_plugin?("vagrant-proxyconf")
config.proxy.http = "http://192.168.0.2:3128/"
config.proxy.https = "http://192.168.0.2:3128/"
config.proxy.no_proxy = "localhost,127.0.0.1,.example.com"
end
# ... other stuff
end
config.proxy.http
- The proxy for HTTP URIsconfig.proxy.https
- The proxy for HTTPS URIsconfig.proxy.ftp
- The proxy for FTP URIsconfig.proxy.no_proxy
- A comma separated list of hosts or domains which do not use proxies.
- If all keys are unset or
nil
, no configuration is written. - A proxy should be specified in the form of http://[user:pass@]host:port.
- Empty string (
""
) orfalse
in any setting also force the configuration files to be written, but without configuration for that key. Can be used to clear the old configuration and/or override a global setting.
VAGRANT_HTTP_PROXY
VAGRANT_HTTPS_PROXY
VAGRANT_FTP_PROXY
VAGRANT_NO_PROXY
These also override the Vagrantfile configuration. To disable or remove the proxy use an empty value.
For example to spin up a VM, run:
VAGRANT_HTTP_PROXY="http://proxy.example.com:8080" vagrant up
New Behavior Warning: Setting the plugin to disabled now unconfigures all or specific proxies.
The plugin can be disabled by setting config.proxy.enabled
to false
or empty string (""
).
This can be also be used to disable a proxy for some provider.
Specific applications can be disabled by setting config.proxy.enabled
to
a hash( like { svn: false }
or { svn: {enabled: false} }
).
config.proxy.enabled # => all applications enabled(default)
config.proxy.enabled = true # => all applications enabled
config.proxy.enabled = { svn: false, docker: false }
# => specific applications disabled
config.proxy.enabled = "" # => all applications disabled
config.proxy.enabled = false # => all applications disabled
The plugin can also be skipped from applying/removing the proxy configuration for a specific provider.
{
:apt => {
:enabled => false,
:skip => true,
},
:svn => {
:enabled => false,
:skip => true,
},
}
The plugin is disabled, but skip = true
means that no proxy configuration will be removed so the system
will remain in it's most recent state. This can be useful if you just want to skip over specific provider
being configured or unconfigured.
{
:apt => {
:enabled => true,
:skip => false,
},
:svn => {
:enabled => true,
:skip => true,
},
}
The plugin is enabled, but skip = true
means that no proxy configuration will be applied so the system
will remain in it's most recent state. This can be useful if you just want to skip over specific provider
being configured or unconfigured.
In the example above the apt
proxy will be enabled and proxy configuration will be applied, but the
svn
proxy even though it's enabled will be skipped.
Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
config.proxy.http = "http://192.168.0.2:3128/"
config.vm.provider :my_cloud do |cloud, override|
override.proxy.enabled = false
end
# ... other stuff
end
Configures applications to use proxy settings. The configurations will be written to configuration files for each application.
Following applications can be configured.
Configurations are based on default configuration(config.proxy.*
) and
can be overridden except SVN.
SVN configuration is not set if no SVN specific configuration.
Application | Base conf. | Specific conf. | Env. var. |
---|---|---|---|
configure_apt_proxy | config.proxy.* | config.apt_proxy.* | VAGRANT_APT_* |
configure_git_proxy | N/A | config.git_proxy.* | VAGRANT_GIT_* |
configure_svn_proxy | N/A | config.svn_proxy.* | VAGRANT_SVN_* |
configure_yum_proxy | config.proxy.* | config.yum_proxy.* | VAGRANT_YUM_* |
Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
config.proxy.http = "http://192.168.0.2:3128/"
config.proxy.https = "http://192.168.0.2:3128/"
config.proxy.no_proxy = "localhost,127.0.0.1,.example.com"
config.apt_proxy.http = "http://192.168.33.1:3142"
config.apt_proxy.https = "DIRECT"
# ... other stuff
end
These also override the Vagrantfile configuration. To disable or remove the proxy use "DIRECT" or an empty value.
For example to spin up a VM and set the APT proxy to `http://proxy.example.com:8080, run:
VAGRANT_APT_HTTP_PROXY="http://proxy.example.com:8080" vagrant up

- apt-cacher-box
a Vagrant setup for apt-cacher-ng. - polipo-box
a Vagrant setup for polipo caching web proxy. - vagrant-cachier
An excellent Vagrant plugin that shares various cache directories among similar VM instances. Should work fine together with vagrant-proxyconf.

Development version from git repository:
git clone https://github.com/tmatilai/vagrant-proxyconf.git cd vagrant-proxyconf # Optionally check out other than the master branch git checkout <branch> # If you don't have Ruby installed, you can use <path/to/vagrant>/embedded/bin/gem>. # If you have Docker you can use the Ruby image: # docker run -it --rm -v ${PWD}:/usr/src/myapp -w /usr/src/myapp ruby:2.6 gem build vagrant-proxyconf.gemspec gem build vagrant-proxyconf.gemspec vagrant plugin install vagrant-proxyconf-*.gem
Paths to Vagrant's embedded gem:

/opt/vagrant/embedded/bin/gem
- OS X:
/Applications/Vagrant/embedded/bin/gem
- Linux:
When running bundle exec vagrant status
I get Encoded files can't be read outside of the Vagrant installer.
$ bundle exec vagrant status
Vagrant failed to initialize at a very early stage:
The plugins failed to load properly. The error message given is
shown below.
Encoded files can't be read outside of the Vagrant installer.
The solution is to add this to the Gemfile
embedded_locations = %w(/Applications/Vagrant/embedded /opt/vagrant/embedded)
embedded_locations.each do |p|
ENV['VAGRANT_INSTALLER_EMBEDDED_DIR'] = p if File.directory?(p)
end
unless ENV.key?('VAGRANT_INSTALLER_EMBEDDED_DIR')
$stderr.puts "Couldn't find a packaged install of vagrant, and we need this"
$stderr.puts 'in order to make use of the RubyEncoder libraries.'
$stderr.puts 'I looked in:'
embedded_locations.each do |p|
$stderr.puts " #{p}"
end
end
NOTE: This should all be performed in the directory that you have git cloned the source.
NOTE: This also assumes you are using recent MacOS >= Catalina
or
recent Linux.
- Install
ruby 2.6.6
which is currently supported onVagrant 2.2.5
toVagrant 2.2.14
- run
make
- After ensuring you are running
ruby 2.6.6
and that you have have succesfully bundledvagrant-proxyconf
you may test the current state of the plugin. For example, let's say you wanted to test #231 acceptance tests.- You would first
cd test/issues/231/
