alexandre2602 / ansible-proxy

Role for Ansible which configures the proxy client parameters in RHEL systems

Stone Payments - Proxy

Role for Ansible which configures the proxy client parameters in GNU/Linux and Windows systems.

Requirements

None.

Usage

Just include the role and set the variables in the defaults/main.yml file:

- name: configure proxy client
  hosts: all
  roles:
    - stone-payments.proxy
  vars:
    proxy_address: "some.server.example.com"
    proxy_port: "3128"

Advanced usage

You may also setup another proxy protocol than HTTP (SOCKS or SOCKS5, maybe) and setup authentication by using the following vars:

# May be http, socks or socks5
proxy_proto: "http"
proxy_address: ""
proxy_port: ""

# To use proxy with authentication
proxy_auth: false
proxy_user: ""
proxy_pass: ""

# Configure yum and RHSM to use the proxy
proxy_redhat: false

# Used to set or remove proxy settings for Windows INet which includes Internet Explorer
proxy_win_inet: true

# Used to set, remove, or import proxy settings for Windows HTTP Services WinHTTP
proxy_win_http: false

# Sets the list of hosts that will bypass the set proxy when being accessed
proxy_whitelist:
  - "127.0.0.1"
  - "localhost"

• If you're going to use authentication, you need both to inform the user/pass and enable it by setting proxy_auth to true.
• You may also pass a list in proxy_whitelist with names or IPs that you do not want to use the proxy and access directly.

Dependencies

None.
