If you want to learn how to use the +dependency proxies, see the [user guide](../user/group/dependency_proxy/index.md). + +## Enabling the Dependency Proxy feature + +NOTE: **Note:** +Dependency proxy requires the Puma web server to be enabled. +Puma support is EXPERIMENTAL at this time. + +To enable the Dependency proxy feature: + +**Omnibus GitLab installations** + +1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb` and add the following line: + + ```ruby + gitlab_rails['dependency_proxy_enabled'] = true + ``` + +1. Save the file and [reconfigure GitLab][] for the changes to take effect. +1. Enable the [Puma web server](https://docs.gitlab.com/omnibus/settings/puma.html). + +**Installations from source** + +1. After the installation is complete, you will have to configure the `dependency_proxy` + section in `config/gitlab.yml`. Set to `true` to enable it: + + ```yaml + dependency_proxy: + enabled: true + ``` + +1. [Restart GitLab] for the changes to take effect. +1.
