its easy to forget the the vagrant file is run as a ruby script.

thanks to reading this, http://blog.devteaminc.co/conditional-vagrant-environments/

heres a way to use an apt proxy for yourself, but not use one if its not defined. same thing would probably work for yum, get-package etc. i keep a permanent vm running with squid-deb-proxy.

your_shell$ export APTPROXY="http:1.2.3.4:8000"

in your Vagrantfile,

config.vm.provision "shell", path: "aptproxy.sh", args: ENV['APTPROXY'] if ENV.has_key?('APTPROXY')

aptproxy.sh
#!/bin/sh

cat
<< EOF > /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/02proxy
Acquire::http::proxy "$1";
EOF
apt
-get update

nice! setting that in the global Vagrantfile is much cleaner than adding another provision step to every host!
