bash-osx-autoproxy

🔩 An oh-my-bash plugin that configures proxy environment variables based on macOS's system preferences automatically.

Installation

oh-my-bash

Clone this repository into $OSH_CUSTOM/plugins (by default ~/.oh-my-bash/custom/plugins)

git clone https://github.com/Artoria2e5/bash-osx-autoproxy ${OSH_CUSTOM:-~/.oh-my-bash/custom}/plugins/osx-autoproxy

Add the plugin to the list of plugins for oh-my-bash to load (inside ~/.bashrc):

plugins=(
    [plugins
     ...]
    osx-autoproxy
)

Start a new terminal session.

Vanilla

Who the heck uses OMB unless they are trying to be edgy? Just download the file into your dotfile directory and somehow source it.

I mean, I wrote this because I was trying to be edgy. I almost gave up when I realized I don't have bash 4 but OMB works fine on bash 3. The thing could've been much leaner in eval if I didn't care about OMB compat...

Usage

After install the plugin and have proxy configured in System Prefrences, start a new terminal session and following environment variables will be set (if applicable):

http_proxy
https_proxy
ftp_proxy
all_proxy

You can even reload it via __osx_autoproxy_reload! How cool is that! (No it's not cool at all I know.)

Uninstallation

If you install bash-osx-autoproxy with oh-myzsh, you need to remove osx-autoproxy item from plugin array, then rm -rf ${OSH_CUSTOM:-~/.oh-my-bash/custom}/plugins/osx-autoproxy to remove the plugin.
