Convers OpenVPN connection to SOCKS5/HTTP proxy in Docker. This allows you to have multiple proxies on different ports connecting to different OpenVPN upstreams.

Supports latest Docker for both Windows, Linux, and MacOS.

• OpenVPN (GitHub)
• WireGuard (GitHub)
• Shadowsocks/ShadowsocksR (GitHub)

1. It reads in an OpenVPN configuration file (.ovpn) from a mounted file, specified through OPENVPN_CONFIG environment variable.
2. It starts the OpenVPN client program to establish the VPN connection.
3. It optionally runs the executable defined by OPENVPN_UP when the VPN connection is stable.
4. It starts 3proxy server and listen on container-scoped port 1080 for SOCKS5 and 3128 for HTTP proxy on default. Proxy authentication can be enabled with PROXY_USER and PROXY_PASS environment variables. SOCKS5_PROXY_PORT and HTTP_PROXY_PORT can be used to change the default ports. For multi-user support, use sequence of PROXY_USER_1, PROXY_PASS_1, PROXY_USER_2, PROXY_PASS_2, etc.
5. It optionally runs the executable defined by PROXY_UP when the proxy server is ready.
6. If ARIA2_PORT is defined, it starts an aria2 RPC server on the port, and optionally runs the executable defined by ARIA2_UP.
7. It optionally runs the user specified CMD line from docker run positional arguments (see Docker doc). The program will use the VPN connection inside the container.
8. If user has provided CMD line, and DAEMON_MODE environment variable is not set to true, then after running the CMD line, it will shutdown the OpenVPN client and terminate the container.

Prepare your OpenVPN configuration file with .ovpn extension, which you can usually get from your VPN provider's website.

If you want to specify OpenVPN username and password, you can change the line in your .ovpn configuration with auth-user-pass to auth-user-pass secret, then create a file named secret at the same directory as your .ovpn configuration file. secret file should contain two lines, where first line is your username, and second line is your password.

Proxy server options are specified through these container environment variables:

• SOCKS5_PROXY_PORT (Default: "1080") - SOCKS5 server listening port
• HTTP_PROXY_PORT (Default: "3128") - HTTP proxy server listening port
• PROXY_USER (Default: "") - Proxy server authentication username
• PROXY_PASS (Default: "") - Proxy server authentication password
• PROXY_USER_<N> (Default: "") - The N-th username for multi-user proxy authentication. N starts from 1.
• PROXY_PASS_<N> (Default: "") - The N-th password for multi-user proxy authentication. N starts from 1.
• PROXY_UP (Default: "") - optional command to be executed when proxy server becomes stable
• PROXY_PARENT (Default: "") - 可以指定一个上级代理，格式：协议 地址 端口 用户名 密码，如：PROXY_PARENT='http 192.168.68.68 18080 user "pass12!@"'

Arai2 options are specified through these container environment variables:

• ARIA2_PORT (Default: "") - JSON-RPC server listening port
• ARIA2_PASS (Default: "") - --rpc-secret password
• ARIA2_PATH (Default: ".") - The directory to store the downloaded file
• ARIA2_ARGS (Default: "") - BASH-style escaped command line to append to the aria2c command
• ARIA2_UP (Default: "") - optional command to be executed when aria2 JSON-RPC server becomes stable

Other container environment variables:

• DAEMON_MODE (Default: "false") - force enter daemon mode when CMD line is specified

The following example will run curl ifconfig.co/json through VPN configured in ./vpn.ovpn on host machine.

# Unix
docker run -it --rm --device=/dev/net/tun --cap-add=NET_ADMIN \
    -v "${PWD}":/vpn:ro -e OPENVPN_CONFIG=/vpn/vpn.ovpn \
    curve25519xsalsa20poly1305/openvpn \
    curl ifconfig.co/json

# Windows
docker run -it --rm --device=/dev/net/tun --cap-add=NET_ADMIN ^
    -v "%CD%":/vpn:ro -e OPENVPN_CONFIG=/vpn/vpn.ovpn ^
    curve25519xsalsa20poly1305/openvpn ^
    curl ifconfig.co/json

You can leave the VPN connection running in background, and later use docker exec to run your program inside the running container without ever closing and repoening your VPN connection multiple times. Just leave out the CMD line when you start the container with docker run, it will automatically enter daemon mode.

# Unix
NAME="myvpn"
PORT="7777"
docker run --name "${NAME}" -dit --rm --device=/dev/net/tun --cap-add=NET_ADMIN \
    -v "${PWD}":/vpn:ro -e OPENVPN_CONFIG=/vpn/vpn.ovpn \
    -p "${PORT}":1080 \
    curve25519xsalsa20poly1305/openvpn

# Windows
SET NAME="myvpn"
SET PORT="7777"
docker run --name "%NAME%" -dit --rm --device=/dev/net/tun --cap-add=NET_ADMIN ^
    -v "%PWD%":/vpn:ro -e OPENVPN_CONFIG=/vpn/vpn.ovpn ^
    -p "%PORT%":1080 ^
    curve25519xsalsa20poly1305/openvpn

Then you run commads using docker exec:

# Unix
NAME="myvpn"
docker exec -it "${NAME}" curl ifconfig.co/json

# Windows
SET NAME="myvpn"
docker exec -it "%NAME%" curl ifconfig.co/json

Or use the SOCKS5 server available on host machine:

curl ifconfig.co/json -x socks5h://127.0.0.1:7777

To stop the daemon, run this:

# Unix
NAME="myvpn"
docker stop "${NAME}"

# Windows
SET NAME="myvpn"
docker stop "%NAME%"

Please feel free to contribute to this project. But before you do so, just make sure you understand the following:

1. Make sure you have access to the official repository of this project where the maintainer is actively pushing changes. So that all effective changes can go into the official release pipeline.

2. Make sure your editor has EditorConfig plugin installed and enabled. It's used to unify code formatting style.

3. Use Conventional Commits 1.0.0-beta.2 to format Git commit messages.

4. Use Gitflow as Git workflow guideline.

5. Use Semantic Versioning 2.0.0 to tag release versions.
