Set proxy configs for tools like git, npm with just a single command.

Installation:

Pre-requisites:

Powershell 7

gsudo

1. Manual Installation

Clone the repository

git clone https://github.com/JDeepD/SetProxy.git

Run install.ps1

pwsh .\install.ps1

To update the tool, pull all the changes and run:

pwsh .\install.ps1 -update

Commands:

Create a profile

setproxy create

Show all profiles

setproxy list

Switch to a profile by nickname

setproxy <nickname>

Plus Tip: Use setproxy with fzf for an even smoother experience.

Put this in your $PROFILE (Powershell 7)

function fpx{
    $selection=$(setproxy fzflist | fzf --height 40% --pointer=' ' --border --info=inline --prompt='▶ ' --color=fg+:#FFFFFF,bg+:#FF0000,gutter:-1 --exact) -split '\s+' | Select-Object -First 1;
    setproxy $selection
}

And run fpx to witness sorcery.

TODO

• Make installation procedure smoother (preferably through package managers like winget or scoop)
• Convert to Powershell module which allows easy installation an updates
• Support for proxy bypasses
• Eliminate some dependencies(gsudo for example)
• (maybe) Integrate tightly with fzf so that it does not have 2 different interfaces
• (maybe) An cross-platform Proxy manager which works for both Windows and Unix based systems
• (maybe) A GUI tool for managing proxy configurations

Feedback

• Integrate tightly with fzf so that it does not have 2 different interfaces
• An cross-platform Proxy manager which works for both Windows and Unix based systems
• A GUI tool for managing proxy configurations
• update pulled from git by itself
• there was some ability to make a new shell with the proxy settings applied so that it doesnt interfere with globals (probs wouldnt work for windows networking but for the other two it would be nice)
• could specify the commands to run in the config (could add more apps etc)
