How to use vagrant in a proxy environment?

Installing proxyconf will solve this, but behind a proxy you can't install a plugin simply using the command vagrant plugin install, Bundler will raise an error.

set your proxy in your environment if you're using a unix like system

export http_proxy=http://user:password@host:port

or get a more detailed answer here: How to use bundler behind a proxy?

after this set up proxyconf

If your proxy requires authentication it is better to set the environment variable rather than storing your password in the Vagrantfile. Also your Vagrantfile can be used by others easily who are not behind a proxy.

For Mac/Linux (in Bash)

export http_proxy="http://user:password@host:port"
export https_proxy="http://user:password@host:port"
vagrant plugin install vagrant-proxyconf

then

export VAGRANT_HTTP_PROXY=${http_proxy}
export VAGRANT_HTTPS_PROXY=${https_proxy}
export VAGRANT_NO_PROXY="127.0.0.1"
vagrant up

For Windows use set instead of export.

set http_proxy=http://user:password@host:port
set https_proxy=https://user:password@host:port
vagrant plugin install vagrant-proxyconf

then

set VAGRANT_HTTP_PROXY=%http_proxy%
set VAGRANT_HTTPS_PROXY=%https_proxy%
set VAGRANT_NO_PROXY="127.0.0.1"
vagrant up

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"

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 !
