Support for building Fuel behind a http proxy
The build system is now able to work also behind a traditional web proxy setup if the http_proxy, https_proxy and (if needed) no_proxy environment variables has been set prior to invoking make. This is a joint work by Gillian Dunne <gillian.dunne@intel.com> and Stefan Berg <stefan.k.berg@ericsson.com>. Verification so far has been with a mock setup, placing the build machine behind a Squid proxy and blocking outgoing traffic not going through the proxy by firewall rules. The following environment variables was set in the host for these tests: RSYNC_PROXY=10.0.0.1:8888 http_proxy=http://10.0.0.1:8888 https_proxy=http://10.0.0.1:8888 no_proxy=localhost,127.0.0.1,.consultron.com,.sock *** IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT THE HOST PROXY SETTINGS *** The build system will make use the following proxy environment variables: http_proxy: https_proxy no_proxy RSYNC_PROXY RSYNC_CONNECT_PROG During the build phase, a local Ubuntu package repository is fetched from upstream in order to be added to the OPNFV Fuel ISO and for parts of this process rsync is used. This will require that either RSYNC_PROXY is set according to the format "<proxy host>:<proxy port>" and that the proxy indicated indeed allows rsync traffic *or* that RSYNC_CONNECT_PROG is set to use an alternative transport. For a detailed explanation of these settings, see the rsync manual page. *** IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT THE HOST DOCKER DAEMON SETTINGS *** The Docker daemon on the host must be configured to use the http proxy for it to be able to pull the base Ubuntu 14.04 image from the Docker registry before invoking make! In Ubuntu this is done by adding a line like: export http_proxy="http://10.0.0.1:8888/" to /etc/default/docker and restarting the Docker daemon.

Building
========
@@ -116,10 +128,85 @@ There are two methods available for building Fuel:
- An abstracted method using build.sh
+
+Support for building behind a http/https/rsync proxy
+----------------------------------------------------
+
+The build system is able to make use of a web proxy setup if the
+http_proxy, https_proxy, no_proxy (if needed) and RSYNC_PROXY or
+RSYNC_CONNECT_PROG environment variables have been set before invoking make.
+
+The proxy setup must permit port 80 (http), 443 (https) and 873
+(rsync).
+
+Important note about the host Docker daemon settings
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The Docker daemon on the host must be configured to use the http proxy
+for it to be able to pull the base Ubuntu 14.04 image from the Docker
+registry before invoking make! In Ubuntu this is done by adding a line
+like:
+
+export http_proxy="http://10.0.0.1:8888/"
+
+to /etc/default/docker and restarting the Docker daemon.
+
+Setting proxy environment variables prior to build
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The build system will make use the following environment variables
+that needs to be exported to subshells by using export (bash) or
+setenv (csh/tcsh).
+
+| http_proxy (or HTTP_PROXY)
+| https_proxy (or HTTP_PROXY)
+| no_proxy (or NO_PROXY)
+| RSYNC_PROXY
+| RSYNC_CONNECT_PROG
+
+As an example, these are the settings that were put in the user's
+.bashrc when verifying the proxy build functionality:
+
+| export RSYNC_PROXY=10.0.0.1:8888
+| export http_proxy=http://10.0.0.1:8888
+| export https_proxy=http://10.0.0.1:8888
+| export no_proxy=localhost,127.0.0.1,.consultron.com,.sock
+
+Using a ssh proxy for the rsync connection
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+If the proxy setup is not allowing the rsync protocol, an alternative
+solution is to use a SSH tunnel to a machine capable of accessing the
+outbound port 873. Set the RSYNC_CONNECT_PROG according to the rsync
+manual page (for example to "ssh <username>@<hostname> nc %H 873") to enable
+this. Also note that netcat needs to be installed on the remote
+system!
+
+Make sure that the ssh command also refers to the user on the remote
+system, as the command itself will be run from the Docker build container
+as the root user (but with the invoking user's SSH keys).
+
+Disabling the Ubuntu repo cache if rsync is not allowed
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+During the build phase, a local Ubuntu package repository is fetched
+from upstream in order to be added to the OPNFV Fuel ISO and for parts
+of this process rsync is used.
+
+If neither of the two available methods for proxying rsync are
+available, the last resort is to turn off the caching of the Ubuntu
+packages in the build system. This is done by removing the
+"f_repobuild" from SUBDIRS in the beginning of
+the fuel/build/f_isoroot/Makefile.
+
+Note! Doing this will require the Fuel master node to have Internet
+access when installing the ISO artifact built as no Ubuntu package
+cache will be on the ISO!
