Run CodeBuild in a managed proxy server for reserved capacity fleets

To run AWS CodeBuild reserved capacity fleets in a managed proxy server, you must configure the proxy server to allow or deny traffic to and from external sites using proxy rules. Note that running reserved capacity fleets in a managed proxy server is not supported for VPC, Windows, or MacOS.

Configure a managed proxy configuration for reserved capacity fleets

To configure a managed proxy server for your reserved capacity fleet, you must enable this feature when creating your fleet in your console or using the AWS CLI. There are several properties which you need to define:

To define proxy configurations in your console, see Create a reserved capacity fleet for instructions. To define proxy configurations using the AWS CLI, you can do so by modifying the following JSON syntax and saving your results:

"proxyConfiguration": {
    "defaultBehavior": "ALLOW_ALL" | "DENY_ALL",
    "orderedProxyRules": [
        {
            "type": "DOMAIN" | "IP",
            "effect": "ALLOW" | "DENY",
            "entities": [
                "destination"
            ]
        }
    ]
}

Your JSON file may look similar to the following:

"proxyConfiguration": {
    "defaultBehavior": "DENY_ALL",
    "orderedProxyRules": [
        {
            "type": "DOMAIN",
            "effect": "ALLOW",
            "entities": [
                "github.com"
            ]
        }
    ]
}

Run a CodeBuild reserved capacity fleet

When running AWS CodeBuild reserved capacity fleets with your managed proxy server, CodeBuild will automatically set its HTTP_PROXY and HTTPS_PROXY environment variables with the managed proxy addresses. If your dependency software has its own configuration and does not adhere to the environment variables, you can refer to these values and update your software configuration in your build commands to properly route your build traffic through the managed proxy.
