ionic-cli: Ionic 3 CLI unable to start project behind proxy

Has anyone found the solution / workaround?

I can confirm that it works behind a proxy since version 3.3.0. Many thanks for the fix.

@JPinlac Awesome. I’ll check on Windows as soon as I can.

@kabeza We look at environment variables for the proxy address: https://github.com/driftyco/ionic-cli#using-a-proxy

Can confirm that it works behind proxy after upgrading the CLI to 3.3.0 Thanks for the fix 👍

global packages:

    @ionic/cli-plugin-proxy : 1.3.0
    @ionic/cli-utils        : 1.3.0
    Ionic CLI               : 3.3.0

System:

    Node       : v6.10.3
    OS         : Windows 7
    Xcode      : not installed
    ios-deploy : not installed
    ios-sim    : not installed

@dwieeb This issue is only affecting people on Windows in my team.

ahaha my fault. It’s a timeout error, just the same error as @kabeza

I’ve also update to the latest Node.js (6.10.3), npm (4.6.1) and Ionic (3.2.0) but I get the same error.

Thanks

if this is a self signed cert issue then you can temporarily set an environment variable NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED=0 then clear the variable when you are done

github.comgithub.com:443 ???

@tahniat-ashraf @Navitam Did you follow the instructions here? There is another step. You must export an environment variable such as HTTP_PROXY.

Does not work for version 3.9.2

Thanks for the fix. Update works for me

Thanks for the fix. Latest client version also works for me 👍

@oikonomopo We also look for the following env variables: https://github.com/ionic-team/ionic-cli#using-a-proxy

The proxy environment variables do expect a full, properly formatted connection string.

I tried downgrading to 2.2.3 as @jppampin and can confirm it worked fine, without making any changes for the proxy

sudo npm uninstall -g ionic 
sudo npm install -g ionic@2.2.3
ionic start pruebaApp

Some helpful tips:
Run your app in the browser (great for initial development):
  ionic serve
Run on a device or simulator:
  ionic run ios[android,browser]
Share your app with testers, and test on device easily with the Ionic View companion app:
  http://view.ionic.io

None of the following variables works. IONIC_HTTP_PROXY http_proxy HTTP_PROXY HTTPS_PROXY PROXY

I had to downgrade to 2.2.3 and it works. ordova CLI: 7.0.1 Ionic Framework Version: 3.3. Ionic CLI Version: 2.2.3 Ionic App Lib Version: 2.2.1 Ionic App Scripts Version: 1. ios-deploy version: Not insta ios-sim version: Not installe OS: Windows 7 Node Version: v6.10.3 Xcode version: Not installed

I used the command: npm install -g ionic@legacy --save-exact

@datencia while searching for my issue, I remember that I found once method for TIMEOUT issue.

Lemme try finding for you, hope it helps, but wait…

Perhaps you can try setting the “registry” method, and find something related to npm timeout…

I’m having the same issues. the cli-plugin-proxy is installed and all the environment variable were set and I’m getting the following error. Regular GitHub, npm, and git proxies are all setup and work.

$ ionic start app tabs --verbose

Here’s my ionic info:

$ ionic info --verbose

Im facing the exact same problem. I also havent faced any issue creating angular cli apps. I think ionic start is skipping the proxy set for github; which is causing this problem.
