无法在Laravel中通过身份验证在代理后面安装捆绑软件

Question

I am not able to install any bundles because in my college there is a proxy with authentication. I have been through all questions here on SO regarding this, but they are not helping me in any manner.

I am using version 3.2.13 right now. Even after initializing the env variables by export http_proxy=http://<username>:<password>@<proxy_ip>:<proxy_port>

I get the following error every time I try to install any bundle The bundle API is not responding.

Has someone been able to come with any solutions?

I can't say much for proxies, but you should be able to install bundles by downloading their .zip file from github. I'll walk you through swiftmailer bundle, for instance:

1. http://bundles.laravel.com/bundle/swiftmailer
2. You should notice the install command is php artisan bundle:install swiftmailer .
3. swiftmailer is the name of the folder you should create inside your bundles directory.
4. There's a link to the bundle repository on Github at the sidebar. Download it as .zip.
5. Simply unzip its content inside that folder you just created.
6. Register the bundle on bundles.php like usually.
