This role has moved to my main collection.
It is not maintained here anymore!

This role manages proxy settings of Linux systems.
This role was just created and I can and will not guarantee that it works properly! Use at your own risk! But also feel free to share any findings.
No special requirements; note that this role requires root access, so either run it in a playbook with a global become: yes, or invoke the role in your playbook like:
- hosts: foobar
roles:
- role: thorian93.proxy
become: yes
Available variables are listed below, along with default values (see defaults/main.yml):
proxy_apache2_configure: false
proxy_apt_configure: false
proxy_bash_configure: false
proxy_dnf_yum_configure: false
proxy_git_configure: false
proxy_profile_configure: false
proxy_wget_configure: false
proxy_systemd_configure: false
Choose which parts of the system should be configured with a proxy.
proxy_server: "127.0.0.1"
Configure which proxy server to use.
proxy_port: "8080"
Configure the proxy port.
proxy_exceptions:
- 127.0.0.0/8
- ::1
Configure proxy exceptions like e.g. local hosts.
proxy_package_proxy_server: "{{ proxy_server }}"
proxy_package_proxy_port: "{{ proxy_port }}"
proxy_package_proxy_username: ""
proxy_package_proxy_password: ""
proxy_package_proxy_exceptions: []
Configure proxy for the package manager. Set to blank to remove.
This role ensures that it is not used against unsupported or untested operating systems by checking, if the right distribution name and major version number are present in a dedicated variable named like <role-name>_stable_os. You can find the variable in the role's default variable file at defaults/main.yml:
role_stable_os:
- Debian 10
- Ubuntu 18
- CentOS 7
- Fedora 30
If the combination of distribution and major version number do not match the target system, the role will fail. To allow the role to work add the distribution name and major version name to that variable and you are good to go. But please test the new combination first!
Kudos to HarryHarcourt for this idea!
