NuGet behind a proxy

NuGet behind a proxy

If you need to use NuGet behind a proxy, you can configure the proxy settings in NuGet to enable package restoration and installation. Here's how you can do it:

  1. Open the NuGet configuration file:

    • For Visual Studio: Go to Tools -> NuGet Package Manager -> Package Manager Settings. In the dialog that opens, select "NuGet Package Manager" on the left-hand side and click on the "Settings" tab.
    • For .NET Core/CLI: Open the NuGet.config file located in your user profile folder (%APPDATA%\NuGet\NuGet.config on Windows or ~/.nuget/NuGet/NuGet.Config on Linux/macOS).

  2. Add or modify the <config> section to include the proxy settings:

    <config>
  <add key="http_proxy" value="http://proxyserver:port" />
  <add key="https_proxy" value="http://proxyserver:port" />
  <add key="no_proxy" value="localhost" />
</config>

    Replace proxyserver and port with the appropriate values for your proxy server.

  3. Save the NuGet configuration file.

By configuring the proxy settings in the NuGet configuration file, NuGet will use the specified proxy server when making HTTP requests to download packages. The http_proxy and https_proxy settings define the HTTP and HTTPS proxies, respectively. The no_proxy setting allows you to specify a list of hosts that should bypass the proxy.

Make sure to restart Visual Studio or your .NET Core CLI session for the changes to take effect.

If your proxy requires authentication, you may need to specify the credentials in the proxy URL or use alternative authentication methods supported by your proxy server. Refer to your proxy server's documentation for more information on how to authenticate with it when using NuGet.
