Proxy using bashrc

Put your settings into ~/.bashrc or ~/.bash_profile so you don't have to worry about your settings everytime you open a new terminal window!

If your company is like mine, I have to change my password pretty often. So I added the following into my ~/.bashrc or ~/.bash_profile so that whenever I open a terminal, I know my npm is up to date!

1. Simply paste the following code at the bottom of your ~/.bashrc file:

   ######################
   # User Variables (Edit These!)
   ######################
   username="myusername"
   password="mypassword"
   proxy="mycompany:8080"
   
   ######################
   # Environement Variables
   # (npm does use these variables, and they are vital to lots of applications)
   ######################
   export HTTPS_PROXY="http://$username:$password@$proxy"
   export HTTP_PROXY="http://$username:$password@$proxy"
   export http_proxy="http://$username:$password@$proxy"
   export https_proxy="http://$username:$password@$proxy"
   export all_proxy="http://$username:$password@$proxy"
   export ftp_proxy="http://$username:$password@$proxy"
   export dns_proxy="http://$username:$password@$proxy"
   export rsync_proxy="http://$username:$password@$proxy"
   export no_proxy="127.0.0.10/8, localhost, 10.0.0.0/8, 172.16.0.0/12, 192.168.0.0/16"
   
   ######################
   # npm Settings
   ######################
   npm config set registry http://registry.npmjs.org/
   npm config set proxy "http://$username:$password@$proxy"
   npm config set https-proxy "http://$username:$password@$proxy"
   npm config set strict-ssl false
   echo "registry=http://registry.npmjs.org/" > ~/.npmrc
   echo "proxy=http://$username:$password@$proxy" >> ~/.npmrc
   echo "strict-ssl=false" >> ~/.npmrc
   echo "http-proxy=http://$username:$password@$proxy" >> ~/.npmrc
   echo "http_proxy=http://$username:$password@$proxy" >> ~/.npmrc
   echo "https_proxy=http://$username:$password@$proxy" >> ~/.npmrc
   echo "https-proxy=http://$username:$password@$proxy" >> ~/.npmrc
   
   ######################
   # WGET SETTINGS
   # (Bonus Settings! Not required for npm to work, but needed for lots of other programs)
   ######################
   echo "https_proxy = http://$username:$password@$proxy/" > ~/.wgetrc
   echo "http_proxy = http://$username:$password@$proxy/" >> ~/.wgetrc
   echo "ftp_proxy = http://$username:$password@$proxy/" >> ~/.wgetrc
   echo "use_proxy = on" >> ~/.wgetrc
   
   ######################
   # CURL SETTINGS
   # (Bonus Settings! Not required for npm to work, but needed for lots of other programs)
   ######################
   echo "proxy=http://$username:$password@$proxy" > ~/.curlrc

2. Then edit the "username", "password", and "proxy" fields in the code you pasted.
3. Open a new terminal
4. Check your settings by running npm config list and cat ~/.npmrc
5. Try to install your module using
   • npm install __, or
   • npm --without-ssl --insecure install __, or
   • override your proxy settings by using npm --without-ssl --insecure --proxy http://username:password@proxy:8080 install __.
   • If you want the module to be available globally, add option -g
