To set a proxy in Minikube, you can use the --proxy-mode flag when starting the Minikube cluster. For example:

1
minikube start --proxy-mode=<mode>


Replace <mode> with one of the following options:

  • none: No proxy is used. This is the default value.
  • http: Use an HTTP proxy.
  • https: Use an HTTPS proxy.
  • socks5: Use a SOCKS5 proxy.


You will also need to specify the address and port of the proxy server using the --http-proxy and --https-proxy flags. For example:

1
minikube start --proxy-mode=http --http-proxy=http://<proxy-server>:<proxy-port> --https-proxy=https://<proxy-server>:<proxy-port>


Replace <proxy-server> with the hostname or IP address of the proxy server, and <proxy-port> with the port number.


Alternatively, you can set the HTTP_PROXY, HTTPS_PROXY, and NO_PROXY environment variables in your shell before starting Minikube. These variables will be used by Minikube to configure the proxy for the cluster.


For example:

1
2
3
4
export HTTP_PROXY=http://<proxy-server>:<proxy-port>
export HTTPS_PROXY=https://<proxy-server>:<proxy-port>
export NO_PROXY=localhost,127.0.0.1,<minikube-ip>
minikube start


Replace <proxy-server> and <proxy-port> with the appropriate values, and <minikube-ip> with the IP address of the Minikube cluster (which you can get by running minikube ip).


I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.

Here is how you can set up a proxy in Minikube:

  1. Start Minikube with the appropriate proxy mode and proxy server details: minikube start --proxy-mode=
  2. Verify that the proxy settings have been applied by checking the environment variables: minikube ssh env | grep -i proxy This will display the relevant proxy environment variables.


Alternatively, you can set the proxy details as environment variables before starting Minikube:

1
2
3
export HTTP_PROXY=http://<proxy-server>:<proxy-port>
export HTTPS_PROXY=http://<proxy-server>:<proxy-port>
minikube start


Replace <proxy-server> and <proxy-port> with the appropriate values for your proxy server.


Remember to adjust the proxy mode and server details according to your specific setup.
