Provides a docker container in which outgoing network traffic is transparently proxied over one or more proxy servers. Uses redsocks and supports standard HTTP proxy (http_proxy), HTTP CONNECT (https_proxy), SOCKS4 (socks4_proxy), or SOCKS5 (socks5_proxy) proxies. It is also configured to support running docker within the container so that it can be used to build docker container images from behind a corporate firewall (assuming you have a proxy to traverse it).
I developed this because many of my machines are stuck behind a corporate firewall, and there is not currently any good way to support running or building containers in that environment without baking the proxy information into the Dockerfile (which would break portability of the containers). There is a discussion of this issue on docker repository issue 4962.
By default the docker-proxify container will route port 80 over the specified HTTP proxy and port 443 over the specified CONNECT proxy, both for the container itself and for any other docker containers running inside it (including docker build jobs). This default can be overridden by supplying a port_spec environment variable containing a comma-separated list of port:proxy pairs. For example, the default is: "80:HTTP,443:CONNECT"
One could add a forwarding of port 8000 also over HTTP by setting port_spec to: "80:HTTP,443:CONNECT,8000:HTTP"
Because the docker daemon is run inside the container, you need to run it with the --privileged flag. Proxy settings are passed in as environment variables (http_proxy, https_proxy, socks4_proxy, socks5_proxy).
The entrypoint defaults to an interactive bash shell from which docker can be run:
$ docker run -i -t --privileged -e http_proxy -e https_proxy jrandall/docker-proxify

[ root@5556a3ca0a17:~ ]$If you are trying to access a proxy server running on localhost (for example, cntlm as a pass-through to an NTLM proxy requiring authentication, or a local squid cache), please note that you will not be able to access a daemon listening on the host from within the container. For example, setting http_proxy = '127.0.0.1:3128' will not allow docker-proxify to access a proxy server running on the container host listening on 3128. To work around this problem, you can either run the proxy server from within docker-proxify or you will need to bind the daemon to an interface with a real IP address. To run a proxy server from within docker-proxify, you'd need to first run docker-proxify and install the proxy server software and any configuration you need, and then commit those changes to a new image from the changes you made to the container, and then run that image in place of 'jrandall/docker-proxify'.
