Primary LanguagePython

socks-cli

socks-cli is a solution to make CLI commands use the specified socks5 proxy, by setting up special environment variables, such as ALL_PROXY. It works on linux and macOS with bash and python installed.

Here is an incomplete list of supported commands:

  • git
  • curl
  • wget
  • brew
  • pod
  • gem
  • npm
  • ...

Usage

  1. Clone the code.

  2. Copy socksproxyenv.sample to socksproxyenv, and fill your socks5 server into it.

  3. Call source socks-cli/activate before your CLI commands:

    $ source socks-cli/activate
    Serving HTTP proxy on 127.0.0.1 port 54967 ...
    Done! Some environment variables have been changed to:
      GIT_PROXY_COMMAND=/Users/x/socks-git/sh/socksified-connect.sh
      GIT_SSH=/Users/x/socks-git/sh/socksified-ssh.sh
      ALL_PROXY=socks5h://127.0.0.1:1080
      HTTP_PROXY=http://127.0.0.1:54967
      HTTPS_PROXY=http://127.0.0.1:54967
    
    $ git clone git@github.com:git/git.git
    Cloning into 'git'...
    remote: Counting objects: 213208, done.
    remote: Compressing objects: 100% (372/372), done.
    Receiving objects 2.0% (1/213208), 620.00 KiB | 121.00 KiB/s
    ...
    
  4. Optionally, you can call source socks-cli/deactivate to deactivate socks-cli.
