[Milan Skidmore]

ProxySwitcher is an extension that helps you easily switch proxies from toolbar popup UI.Simply open toolbar popup and click on the desired category. There are five categories available to choose from. Moreover, badge icon color changes according to the chosen category. Once the proxy is set, a notification popup shows you the current state.This addon supports PAC proxy as well. Moreover you can white-list any domain or website through toolbar popup UI. In order to white-list a domain, please add the desired domain to the bypass area in toolbar popup. For example, to white-list - - please add - *example.com - to the filed. Please note that all the entries should be comma separated. Once you filled the bypass area, please mark the related checkbox as well (the checkbox next to the Bypass category).To set PAC proxy, please add a PAC URL or SCRIPT to the designated area (PATH input area). Please note that a PAC path should have a certain format. For example if your PAC file is located in - C:// - folder (on windows machine), please write - file:///C:/pac.data - in the PATH area. If you do not know how to write a PAC file, please read this ( _auto-config) Wikipedia page. Once you made a correct PAC file, please add it to the PATH field.To report bugs, please fill the bug report form in the addon's homepage ( -switcher.html).

"Proxy Switcher and Manager" extension brings the power of proxy management to your browser. Using this extension, you can configure your browser to use a proxy server without altering your operating system's network. The toolbar icon indicates the current type of proxy your browser is using (No Proxy Mode (Direct), Auto-detect Proxy Mode, Manual Mode (SOCKS and HTTPS), and PAC Script Mode). The extension is designed such that no resource is used while the panel is closed.Features:1. Supports profiles to store multiple proxy servers and switch between them when needed2. Supports inline PAC script3. Supports refreshing the PAC script from a remote server4. Displays failed resources and the reason they failed5. Supports badge text and toolbar color to differentiate between proxy profilesNotes: 1. The toolbar icon is an indicator of the current proxy type. Place your mouse over the toolbar button to get more info.2. The badge text displays the number of failed resources. Opening the panel, you can check these resources by pressing the "Error Log" button (this feature is disabled by default). 3. It is possible to search for free transparent or anonymous proxy servers in the manual proxy tab.Why do I need this extension to alter my proxy? By using a proxy server that sits intermediary between your computer and the internet, you can hide your real location or access websites that would otherwise be blocked.Proxy Switcher and Manager is an open-source project.

Proxy Switcher allows you to modify your proxy settings easily from the toolbar panel. Toolbar icon indicates the current type of proxy your browser currently using. The UI for changing proxies is very intuitive. It is very close to the Firefox proxy manager window. The extension is designed such that no resource is used while the panel is closed. This is probably the lightest proxy switcher add-on in the market.

1. No Proxy Mode: Your browser bypasses all system-wide level proxies and connects you directly to the internet. This is useful when there is a network issue caused by an external proxy tool

2. System Proxy Mode: Your browser uses whatever proxy your system is using. Sometimes you have an external software that manages your system-level proxy. Using this option allows the browser to follow the same proxy configuration.

3. Auto-detect Proxy Mode: Your browser automatically detects the proxy settings for your network

4. Manual Mode: You are going to explicitly define proxy server for each scheme. There are four schemes to consider: HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, and Other types of network requests. Using manual tab, you can specify different proxies for each scheme.

5. PAC Script Mode: This is the most powerful way to handle proxy settings of your browser. Basically by writing a PAC script (which is a JavaScript function) you can control routing based on host or url of the request. There is a pre-defined sample of PAC script in the PAC Script tab of the panel to help you start writing the code.

Using this extension there would be no need to digging through the advanced section of your browser anymore. All the settings are access from the toolbar panel. Besides, the toolbar icon is an indicator of the current proxy type. Hover mouse over the toolbar button to get more info.

As of version 0.1.2, the badge text displays the number of failed resources. Opening the panel, you can check these resources by pressing "Error Log" button. Using this new tool, you can modify your PAC script to support custom proxy setting for the failed resources.

One way would be to place the Network Proxy app in your gnome panel. Just left-click and drag System->Preferences->Network Proxy and drop it on your gnome panel somewhere. Create proxy profiles in the Network Proxy application by clicking "Location->New Location" and defining each proxy profile (each of them will have a unique name in the Location drop down menu). It should then take very few clicks to switch between network proxies.

I have been looking for a proxy switcher/extension for Safari but can't find it. Is there a reason why there are no proxy switcher extension in Safari? Also if one wants to develop an extension like that is it possible to do so?

On my app, there is an option to use proxies on the web browser.I've already found a way to use proxies on the web browser. How it works: the user pastes a single IP: Port proxy and after they click on the start button the app tells the web browser to use the specified proxy server.

I am using a laptop and when at work I plug into an ethernet network which requires me to use a proxy. However, when out and about using wifi or 3G there is no need for using a proxy. Now I use a proxy switcher Gnome extension to easily switch between using a proxy and not using a proxy.

However, this only applies to that specific user not root. Hence, I will run in the issue that zypper cannot reach the repos when I am behind the proxy. I do not want to use the global proxy settings as in this case I am not able to use the internet when out and about.

This feature is particularly useful for users who have specific proxy servers they prefer or need to use for their browsing activities. As someone who regularly uses different proxies for various tasks, let me guide you through the steps of adding proxies to the extension.

Buyproxies.org brings you BP Proxy Switcher. Finally, here is a well-known private proxy service provider. With this Chrome proxy plugin, you can easily add all of your proxies from a clipboard or URL. Then, following the upload, you may easily switch between proxies with the press of a button.

Additionally, it includes an autorotate feature that automatically changes the proxy every 60 seconds. One advantage of this one is that it displays the nation of origin for each proxy. Additionally, it enables you to clear the cache prior to switching to a new proxy.

Proxy switchers are commonly used in web scraping to bypass IP bans, scrape data from multiple geographical locations, and maintain anonymity. By rotating proxies, web scrapers can avoid detection and gather data more efficiently.

Node.js offers several libraries for proxy switching, including proxy-chain, http-proxy, and request. These libraries provide developers with the tools they need to implement proxy-switching functionality in their applications.

Right, so proxy.settings is a BrowserSetting, for which get is documented here:

MDN Web Docs get()The BrowserSetting.get() method gets the current value of the browser setting, and an enumeration indicating how the setting's value is currently controlled.

Okay, so for this specific case unsetting your proxy settings should go back to the settings the user had previously, and not the default values of the browser. As such you should not need to read out the current values when your extension is initially activated.

Proxy Switcher lets you change your browser proxy settings (preferences) froma toolbar panel in a familiar UI.

I want to be able to change proxy settings without having to go through Firefox' tedious settings menu. Chrome lets me set a proxy as a command line option, or alternatively setting an environment variable would be ok for me. In its options, FF offers to "Auto-detect" proxy settings, and also, alternatively, to "Use system" proxy settings, but I can't find any documentation to tell me what it's looking for in either case, how to set the system proxy settings, or what the difference is between these two apparently similar options. Currently I have to do Menu->Preferences->Advanced->Network and then type in the proxy details, which takes too long!Thanks.

For me, it comes down to re-installing the status bar with status4eva plugin (bad decision there btw Mozz team, many plugins install their icons there). And install Elite Proxy Switcher, no need to go through the menus and all. It will appear in the status bar saying Direct Connection, then, you right click that and select Use Global Proxy Settings. Should work if it doesn't right away, which it should if you set up a system-wide proxy, but it can be more complicated in Linux I guess. Debian has "Network Proxy Preferences", right? Been a while I used it straight up.
