ProxySwitcher

ProxySwitcher is a Golang-based Windows application that allows you to easily switch internet proxy settings for various programs including the system settings. The application provides a command-line interface (CLI) through the usage of a library called cobra. This CLI then provides commands to set, unset, and save proxy configurations, as well as a system tray icon for quick access to settings and toggling proxies.

Features

Switch internet proxy settings for various applications and the system.
Manage configurations through a configs.json file.
Command-line interface with commands like set, unset, and save.
System tray icon with options to enable and disable proxies, open settings, save configurations, or exit the application.

Installation

Simply run the following command in a Windows PowerShell:

# Using 'Invoke-RestMethod' and 'Invoke-Expression'
irm 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Baipyrus/ProxySwitcher/main/install.ps1'
 | iex

Usage

Generally, the Installation step will install both the program, its assets, and a shortcut for the Windows Startmenu for your current userprofile. You could go into the program directory (C:\Users\[Username]\AppData\Local\Programs\ProxySwitcher\) manually and run the program from your CLI in there, but it is recommended to simply use the program in system tray or directly via code. This latter option will be explained next:

Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/Baipyrus/ProxySwitcher.git

CLI Commands

set: Enable all saved proxies including system proxy.
```
go run . set
```
unset: Disable all saved proxies including system proxy.
```
go run . unset
```
save: Saves a new configuration to set a proxy for.
```
go run . save
```

Building

Clone the repository as seen above in Usage

Run the following command:

GOOS=windows GOARCH=amd64 go build -o build/ -v ./...

Configuration

The programs for which the proxy settings should be managed are stored in a configs.json file, which can be modified directly or through the save command. For examples, please take a look at the default config or at the following block:

[
    {
        "name": "test1", // Default CMD Name
        "cmd": "echo 'Hello, World!'", // Optional
        "set": [
            {
                "args": [
                    "http"
                ], // Optionally empty
                "type": "text" // Default; Optional
                "equator": " " // Default; Optional
            }, // Writes "echo 'Hello, World!' http ", followed
               // by your system proxy, to a powershell process.
            {
                "args": [
                    "https"
                ], // Optionally empty
                "equator": "=" // Optional
            }  // Writes "echo 'Hello, World!' https=", followed
               // by your system proxy, to a powershell process.
        ], // Optional
        "unset": []
        // "unset" has the contents as "set" above
        // and it is also optional.
    }, {
        "name": "test2", // Default CMD Name
        "cmd": "echo '$PRSW_ARG $PRSW_ARG'", // Optional
        "set": [
            {
                "args": [
                    "https"
                ], // Optionally empty
                "type": "variable" // Optional
            }  // Writes "echo 'https <Your System Proxy>'"
               // to a powershell process.
        ] // Optional
    }
]
