Add the ability to explicitly unset proxy_url in inherited configs
Closed this issue · 3 comments
I am running Katello and for nearly all of my repos I want to have a proxy configured. However I am mirroring some repos from internal sources. The repository config seems to inherit from nectar defaults so you can actually override proxy_url on specific repos. But setting proxy_url to None, or "" doesn't work as expected. Because config.proxy_url=""==False
in python and when I tried "None" it correctly becomes the string "None" and there is no proxy server named "None" in our network.
I found a workaround, a gross workaround, I manually edited the installed downloaders/threaded.py
.

# Annoyingly, although the config is called 'proxy_url', the port and basic auth
# credentials are defined separately, so we have to build the url.

I would submit it as a merge request but I suspect my patch is a bit myopic.
I chose the value _none_
because that's what yum
uses and it made sense to me and might make sense to others. I'm not married to it. Just a thought.
