Setting the Environment (and Working With Proxies)
==================================================
.. versionadded:: 1.1
It is quite possible that you may need to get package updates through a proxy, or even get some package
updates through a proxy and access other packages not through a proxy. Ansible makes it easy for you
to configure your environment by using the 'environment' keyword. Here is an example::
- hosts: all
remote_user: root
tasks:
- apt: name=cobbler state=installed
environment:
http_proxy: http://proxy.example.com:8080
The environment can also be stored in a variable, and accessed like so::
- hosts: all
remote_user: root
# here we make a variable named "env" that is a dictionary
vars:
proxy_env:
http_proxy: http://proxy.example.com:8080
tasks:
- apt: name=cobbler state=installed
environment: "{{ proxy_env }}"
While just proxy settings were shown above, any number of settings can be supplied. The most logical place
to define an environment hash might be a group_vars file, like so::
---
# file: group_vars/boston
ntp_server: ntp.bos.example.com
backup: bak.bos.example.com
proxy_env:
http_proxy: http://proxy.bos.example.com:8080
https_proxy: http://proxy.bos.example.com:8080
