If you use multiple proxies and you want to define rules to set specific proxy per specific host, this package can help you.
Simply create a ~/.pacgen.yml config file and define your rules there.
After that run updatepac command in your terminal and it will create ~/.proxy.pac
pip install pacgen
proxies:
ssh_tunnel: socks5:https://127.0.0.1:1081
shadowsocks: socks5:https://127.0.0.1:1080
httpproxy: http:https://127.0.0.1:1082
routes:
172.19.20.10: ssh_tunnel
youtube.com: shadowsocks
viemo.com: shadowsocks
news.com: httpproxy
# default_proxy will be used for hosts which are not defined in routes.
default_proxy: shadowsocks
# here we define hosts that we don't want to use proxy for them.
excludes:
- bank.com
- lastpass.com
Unfortunately, Chrome will not work anymore with a local PAC file path. As a workaround, you can serve it yourself with a webserver like nginx.
sudo apt install nginx
sudo cp ~/.proxy.pac /var/www/html/proxy.pac
Then put this address in your proxy setting:
http:https://localhost/proxy.pac
