This can be useful for updating formulae to new versions. ## Using Homebrew behind a proxy Behind the scenes, Homebrew uses several commands for downloading files (e.g. curl, git, svn). Many of these tools can download via a proxy. It's a common (though not universal) convention for these command-line tools to observe getting the proxy parameters from environment variables (e.g. `http_proxy`). Unfortunately, most tools are inconsistent in their use of these environment parameters (e.g. curl supports `http_proxy`, `HTTPS_PROXY`, `FTP_PROXY`, `GOPHER_PROXY`, `ALL_PROXY`, `NO_PROXY`). @@ -63,12 +63,13 @@ internet for details), including at runtime: http_proxy=http://<proxyhost>:<proxyport> brew install $FORMULA ``` -### Proxy Authentication +To use proxy authentication: + ```sh http_proxy=http://<user>:<password>@<proxyhost>:<proxyport> brew install $FORMULA ``` -## Installing stuff without the Xcode-CLT +## Installing stuff without the Xcode CLT ```sh $ brew sh # or: eval $(brew --env) $ gem install ronn # or c-programs |
