Overview

This module was created to streamline proxy management of popular software. This software includes:

  • apt
  • yum
  • rpm
  • profile.d
  • git
  • wget
  • ruby

Currently only http (no https) proxies are supported.

Usage

First, declare the module with the proxy settings:

class { 'httpproxy':
    url      => 'proxy.my.org',
    port     => '80',
    user     => 'proxy_user',
    pass     => 'proxy_pass',
    no_proxy => '.my.org',
}

The no_proxy parameter takes a comma separated string of addresses to be ignored by the profile.d proxy.

To enable proxy management:

apt/yum/rpm

Defaults:

httpproxy::packagemanager { 'proxy-pkg': }

Purge /etc/apt.conf:

httpproxy::packagemanager { 'proxy-pkg':
    purge_apt_conf => true,
}

If purge_apt_conf is set to true, the existing /etc/apt.conf file will be removed (if on Debian/Ubuntu) to ensure the apt proxy is managed by this module.

profile.d

httpproxy::profiled { 'proxy-profiled': }

git

httpproxy::git { 'proxy-git': }

wget

httpproxy::wget { 'proxy-wget': }

ruby

Defaults:

httpproxy::gem { 'proxy-gem': }

Custom path:

httpproxy::gem { 'httpproxy-gem':
    path => '/root/.gemrc',
}

You may pass ensure => 'absent' to any of the modules above to ensure there is no proxy set for that module.

Reference

httpproxy uses the Unibets profile.d management module to manage proxies in profile.d. The puppetlabs/inifile resource is used to manage the yum and wget proxies. The apt proxy is managed via the puppetlabs/apt module.

Please contribute, pull requests are welcome. The more proxies that can be managed the better.

Limitations

This module has been tested against Puppet 4, 5, 6, CentOS 5, 6, 7, and Ubuntu 14.04, 16.04, 18.04.
