ShadowSocks ConnecTion

A wrapper tool for shadowsocks to consistently bypass firewalls.

Quick start

Automatically connect

The easiest way to run this tool is just type ssct in terminal, and ssct will acquire available shadowsocks servers from ishadowsocks and connect to it automatically.

Connect to a specific server

First, show all ss servers by --list option.

ssct --list

Then, connect to a specific server by -n option.

ssct -n 5

Alternatively, you can connect a custom server.

ssct -s <server_addr> -p <server_port> -l <local_port> -k <password> -m <method>

Usage

Requirements

1 Install shadowsocks and requests (Required)
