Install packages behind proxy using saltatack

Question

Getting through a Saltstack tutorial and ran into a problem how to install packages on a linux host if it's behind a proxy. For example, I have a file nettools.sls:

install_network_packages:
  pkg.installed:
    - pkgs:
      - rsync
      - lftp
      - curl

How can I pass env variables like http_proxy so to install packages? Thank you.

This is how it worked for me:

proxy:
  environ.setenv:
    - name: Proxy Settings
    - value:
        http_proxy: http://10.20.80.50:3128
        https_proxy: https://10.20.80.50:3128

install_network_packages:
  pkg.installed:
    - pkgs:
      - rsync
      - lftp
      - curl
