About npm and corporate proxy

[Rafael Agostini]

Hi,

I got problems with a corporate proxy. I can't install packages through npm, it always throws me the following error:

C:\Users\raa>npm install -g phonegap
npm http GET https://registry.npmjs.org/phonegap
npm http GET https://registry.npmjs.org/phonegap
npm http GET https://registry.npmjs.org/phonegap

Maybe there's two ways to solve it:

• Configure the proxy in npm (I tried in different ways, for example, through the "npm config set" command, with no results).
• Ask to security department in the office to allow connections for npm. The problem here is that I really don't know what params I need for that. For example, the IP and Port of the node package manager to allow that connection.

Can you help me trying to solve my problem? Thanks a lot!

Looks like npm looks for one of the following environment variables for a proxy: HTTPS_PROXY, https_proxy, HTTP_PROXY, http_proxy.
Alternatively, you can specify this via npm config set https-proxy porxy-url.

I tried that in many ways. It would be something like http://DOMAIN\myUser:myPas...@proxyServer.com:8080, but it fails.
