bower proxy configuration

Edit your .bowerrc file ( should be next to your bower.json file ) and add the wanted proxy configuration

"proxy":"http://<host>:<port>",
"https-proxy":"http://<host>:<port>"

For info, in your .bowerrc file you can add a no-proxy attribute. I don't know since when it is supported but it works on bower 1.7.4

.bowerrc :

{
  "directory": "bower_components", 
  "proxy": "http://yourProxy:yourPort",
  "https-proxy":"http://yourProxy:yourPort",
  "no-proxy":"myserver.mydomain.com"
}

.bowerrc should be located in the root folder of your Javascript project, the folder in which you launch the bower command. You can also have it in your home folder (~/.bowerrc).

I had ETIMEDOUT error, and after putting

{
  "proxy":"http://<user>:<password>@<host>:<port>",
  "https-proxy":"http://<user>:<password>@<host>:<port>"
}

just worked. I don't know if you have something wrong in the .bowerrc or ECONNRESET can't be solved with this, but I hope this help you ;)
