How do you setup pip on a Windows computer that is behind a VPN proxy?

I've seen 3-4 different options such as:

  1. Set the http_proxy and https_proxy env variables
  2. Create a pip.ini file
  3. Use CNTLM program(?)
  • Etc.

Suggestion 1 and 2 above require your password to be typed in plaintext. The password is visible in either the terminal history or the pip.ini file which is unacceptable in my case.

Suggestion 3 involves a program I wouldn't install.

So how are those concerned with security setting up pip to work behind a VPN?
