A proxy auto-config (PAC) file for those scholars who are relying on a ssh tunnel to their school/department machine to download publications from those digital libraries purchased by their school/universities.
Before setup the ssh tunnel, man ssh
and man ssh_config
are highly recommended.
More readings about ssh
and ssh_config
:
Do a vim .ssh/config
to setup a config file for ssh. An example is like below:
Host tunnel-name
HostName xxxxxxxxx
Port 22
DynamicForward localhost:1080
ExitOnForwardFailure yes
TCPKeepAlive yes
Compression yes
CompressionLevel 9
ServerAliveInterval 60
ServerAliveCountMax 60
User yourusername
Those options are at your decisions.
There are many options to explore on different operating systems and browsers for proxying. I will give an example on Chrome.
Install SwitchyOmega
Delete those default profiles. Add a new profile and select PAC file, import the PAC file in this repository. Using a url of this file also works: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/yishanhe/scholar-pac/master/scholar.pac. Name this profile and save it.
First, start your tunnel ssh -f -N tunnel-name
(You can use an alias if you find inputing ssh -f -N
annoying.)
This will run in background.
In case, you can find this process and kill it by ps aux | grep tunnel-name
to get its pid xxxxxx and kill xxxxxx
.
After turninig on your SwitchyOmega to the profile you previously set, it is all set.
Enjoy it.
Try google my ip
to test or just go to IEEE explorer to test.
- Sometimes, you need to refresh the targeted page several times such that you can see "purchase"->"download".
- Sometimes, the ssh link may not be stable on celluar tethering. Better turn on compression.
The current PAC file only contains a minimal requirement for my usage. And it should be expanded to include more digital libraries.
