The naming of these environment variables follows a pattern: start with IONIC_CMDOPTS_, add the command name (replacing any spaces with underscores), add the option name (replacing any hyphens with underscores), and then uppercase everything. You can express command options (normally set with -opt=value syntax) with environment variables.

IONIC_EMAIL / IONIC_PASSWORD: For automatic login via environment variables.

The CLI will also look for HTTP_PROXY and HTTPS_PROXY, both of which npm use.

IONIC_HTTP_PROXY: Set a URL for proxying all CLI requests through.

IONIC_CONFIG_DIRECTORY: The directory of the global CLI config.

The CLI will look for the following environment variables: Gulp exists in devDependencies of your package.json For example, when the Cordova integration is enabled, ionic cordova prepare will run after ionic build runs. Integrations such as Cordova are automatically activated when detected, but can be easily disabled. See ionic config set -help and ionic config get -help for usage. The CLI provides commands for setting and printing config values from project config files and the global CLI config file.

Project config files ( ): for Ionic project config.

Global config file ( ~/.ionic/config.json): for global CLI config and auth.

There are further settings which may need to be added that might be discussed in a future post.Configuration values are stored in JSON files.

In this example we’re simply telling NPM to ignore the errors, this is less secure importing your proxy certificate but a quicker way of working.

Most proxies use SSL interception and replace the hosts SSL certificate with one of their own, you can have the URLs required added to any SSL Bypass policy by your proxy server admin, import your proxy servers CA into your NPM setup or tell NPM to ignore errors with SSL certificates Set the https proxy – Rememebr to replace the URL and port number with your specific values.

Set the http proxy – Rememebr to replace the with your specific values. You can set each command globally by adding a -g at the end of the line. Using the command line to set NPM proxy variables.

Npm config set proxy
