[ZEPPELIN-1865] zeppelin-web build fails behind proxy

• Type: Bug
• Status: Open
• Priority: Minor
• Resolution: Unresolved
• Affects Version/s: 0.7.0
• Component/s: zeppelin-server
• Labels: build

Environment

centos 6.7 on intranet server requiring proxy to access maven repo and npmjs registry

• Assignee: Unassigned

Description

maven proxy settings specified to node in zeppelin-web build do not carry over to bower or grunt as called in the postinstall script in package.json.

expected behavior:
successful build – maven proxy settings are pushed down to all subsequent commands in the build script

actual behavior:
failed build – maven proxy settings are passed to node install but not carried to postinstall actions

Workaround:
1) for bower, add proxy config to ~/.bowerrc setting proxy and https-proxy
2) for grunt, export HTTP_PROXY environment variable before calling mvn
