Please add a proxy parameter for the RHEL repo

[johnkazmerzak]

I'd like to have the ability to specify a proxy value for the rhel repo config.

Thanks!

I'll see if this is easy to implement; one other option would be to disable the repos_ensure param, and add the yum repo in your site code.

Ideally all of the possible values for a yumrepo resource type should be passed down

We should use data-in-modules for that purpose, as we do at our GitLab module:

• https://github.com/voxpupuli/puppet-gitlab/blob/master/manifests/omnibus_package_repository.pp#L57
• https://github.com/voxpupuli/puppet-gitlab/blob/master/hiera.yaml
• https://github.com/voxpupuli/puppet-gitlab/blob/master/data/family/Debian.yaml
• https://github.com/voxpupuli/puppet-gitlab/blob/master/data/family/RedHat.yaml
