I have the same/similar issue, client machine is connected via ZScaler Proxy, I created a ".npmrc" file with "proxy", "http-proxy" and "https-proxy" values pointing to the proxy, I used "scrict-ssl=false". NPM is working fine now but "yo office" is failing with:
Unable to download project zip file for "https://github.com/OfficeDev/Office-Addin-TaskPane-React/archive/yo-office.zip". Error: getaddrinfo ENOTFOUND github.com
Are you able to browse https://github.com/OfficeDev/Office-Addin-TaskPane-React in your web browser? The generator-office gets template content from github.com and needs to have access to that side from behind any kind of firewall or proxy.
Thanks for the reply, yes I can open the link in the browser because the browser is working with the proxy settings from windows, the page opens but the certificate for github.com was replaced by one from the proxy itself. NPM can be configured with creating a file ".npmrc" in c:\users\myName\ and it is using the proxy as well. How can I set the proxy for "yo office" or is it failing on the certificate?
The generator-office plugin for yeoman uses a js library call "axois" to make the request to get the zip file. From what I can tell online, it honors the http_proxy, https_proxy, and no_proxy environment variables. I have not tried this myself, but it sounds like it should work.
Sorry for the late reply.. But this is still not resolved. I wanted to try, but even though I can download the zip file directly thru a browser, it seems to be blocked.
