Proxy for installing Composer
To install Composer using a proxy, you can set the proxy configuration in the Composer configuration file or use environment variables. Here's how you can do it:
Option 1: Set Proxy Configuration in Composer File
- Open your Composer configuration file (usually named
composer.json
) in a text editor. - Add the following section to the JSON file:
json"config": {
"http": {
"proxy": "http://proxy.example.com:8080",
"no_proxy": "localhost,127.0.0.1"
},
"https": {
"proxy": "http://proxy.example.com:8080",
"no_proxy": "localhost,127.0.0.1"
}
}
Replace "http://proxy.example.com:8080"
with the actual URL and port of your proxy server.
Option 2: Use Environment Variables
- Set the
HTTP_PROXY
andHTTPS_PROXY
environment variables in your terminal or command prompt:
bashexport HTTP_PROXY="http://proxy.example.com:8080"
export HTTPS_PROXY="http://proxy.example.com:8080"
Replace "http://proxy.example.com:8080"
with the actual URL and port of your proxy server.
- Run the Composer installation command:
bashphp composer-setup.php --install-dir=/usr/local/bin --filename=composer
Make sure to adjust the command based on your specific Composer installation method.
By setting the proxy configuration, Composer will use the specified proxy server for downloading packages and dependencies.
Note: If you encounter any SSL certificate validation issues, you may also need to set the COMPOSER_CAFILE
environment variable to point to the SSL certificate file used by your proxy server.
Remember to adjust the proxy settings according to your specific network configuration and proxy server details.
