PHP Composer behind http proxy

Question

I use composer on a network where the only way to access the internet is using HTTP or socks proxy  I have http proxy and https proxy environment variables  When compose tries to access HTTPS URLs I get this    file could not be downloaded  failed to open stream  Cannot connect to HTTPS server through proxy   As far as I know the only way to connect to a https website is using a connect verb  How can I use composer behind this proxy

If you are using Windows  you should set the same environment variables  but Windows style   set http proxy  lt your http proxy proxy port gt  set https proxy  lt your https proxy proxy port gt    That will work for your current cmd exe  If you want to do this more permanent  y suggest you to use environment variables on your system

If you re on Linux or Unix  including OS X   you should put this somewhere that will affect your environment   export HTTP PROXY REQUEST FULLURI 0   or false export HTTPS PROXY REQUEST FULLURI 0     You can put it in  etc profile to globally affect all users on the machine  or your own    bashrc or    zshrc  depending on which shell you use   If you re on Windows  open the Environment Variables control panel  and add either a system or user environment variables with both HTTP PROXY REQUEST FULLURI and HTTPS PROXY REQUEST FULLURI set to 0 or false     For other people reading this  not you  since you said you have these set up   make sure HTTP PROXY and HTTPS PROXY are set to the correct proxy  using the same methods   If you re on Unix Linux OS X  setting both upper and lowercase versions of the variable name is the most complete approach  as some things use only the lowercase version  and IIRC some use the upper case    I m often using a sort of hybrid environment  Cygwin on Windows  and I know for me it was important to have both  but pure Unix Linux environments might be able to get away with just lowercase     If you still can t get things working after you ve done all this  and you re sure you have the correct proxy address set  then look into whether your company is using a Microsoft proxy server   If so  you probably need to install Cntlm as a child proxy to connect between Composer  etc   and the Microsoft proxy server   Google CNTLM for more information and directions on how to set it up

according to above ideas  I created a shell script that to make a proxy environment for composer      bin bash export HTTP PROXY http   127 0 0 1 8888  export HTTPS PROXY http   127 0 0 1 8888  zsh   you can alse use bash or other shell   This piece of code is in a file named   bin proxy mode shell and it will create a new zsh shell instance when you need proxy  After update finished  you can simply press key Ctrl D to quit the proxy mode   add export PATH   bin  PATH to    bashrc or    zshrc if you cannot run proxy mode shell directly

Operation timed out  IPv6 issues   You may run into errors if IPv6 is not configured correctly  A common error is   The  https   getcomposer org version  file could not be downloaded  failed to open stream  Operation timed out   We recommend you fix your IPv6 setup  If that is not possible  you can try the following workarounds   Workaround Linux   On linux  it seems that running this command helps to make ipv4 traffic have a higher prio than ipv6  which is a better alternative than disabling ipv6 entirely   sudo sh -c  echo  precedence   ffff 0 0 96 100   gt  gt   etc gai conf    Workaround Windows   On windows the only way is to disable ipv6 entirely I am afraid  either in windows or in your home router    Workaround Mac OS X   Get name of your network device   networksetup -listallnetworkservices   Disable IPv6 on that device  in this case  Wi-Fi     networksetup -setv6off Wi-Fi   Run composer      You can enable IPv6 again with   networksetup -setv6automatic Wi-Fi   That said  if this fixes your problem  please talk to your ISP about it to try and resolve the routing errors  That s the best way to get things resolved for everyone   Hoping it will help you

You can use the standard HTTP PROXY environment var  Simply set it to the URL of your proxy  Many operating systems already set this variable for you   Just export the variable  then you don t have to type it all the time   export HTTP PROXY  http   johndoeproxy cu 8080    Then you can do composer update normally
