Seeking Advice on Using Demergi with AdGuard Home

[Ryuo1]

Description

Hello Demergi Team,

I hope this message finds you well. I am currently exploring the use of Demergi, your DPI bypassing tool, and I'm interested in running it alongside AdGuard Home, with Demergi on docker-compose and AdGuard natively with systemd. I believe both tools serve unique purposes, and I'm keen on understanding how I can configure them to work harmoniously.

Request for Advice

Integration with AdGuard Home: Could you provide guidance on configuring Demergi to work seamlessly alongside AdGuard Home? Specifically, any considerations or configurations that might be necessary to avoid conflicts or enhance compatibility. I have tried adding the proxy URL (http) of Demergi in AdGuard Home's upstream DNS servers, but that fails with an error.

Docker Setup: Given that I plan to deploy Demergi under dockerc-compose and AdGuard Home natively, are there specific recommendations or best practices I should follow during the setup?

I have not used AdGuard Home specifically, but with the --dot-server and --doh-url options you could use AdGuard Home as a resolver in Demergi.

[Ryuo1]

How may I proceed with using those arguments via docker-compose?

You could define the DEMERGI_DOT_SERVER or DEMERGI_DOH_URL variables in the Demergi service (equivalent to the options above) to point to your AdGuard Home DoT or DoH endpoints. This way, when you use Demergi as a proxy, it will resolve the domains through AdGuard Home.
