This docker image allows you to use docker on a host without being bored by your corporate proxy.

You have just to run this container and all your other containers will be able to access directly to internet (without any proxy configuration).

Start the container like this:

docker run --privileged=true --detach --name pylori psyclow/pylori:1.0 1.2.3.4 3128 user password

Once pylori has been configured you can subsequently launch it using the command:

docker run  --privileged=true --detach --name pylori psyclow/pylori:1.0

Replace the IP and the port by those of your proxy.

The container will start redsocks and automatically configure iptable to forward all the TCP traffic of the $DOCKER_NET interface (docker0 by default) through the proxy.

You can forward all the TCP traffic regardless the interface by unset the DOCKER_NET variable: -e DOCKER_NET.

If you want to add exception for an IP or a range of IP you can edit the allowlist file. Once edited you can replace this file into the container by mounting it:

docker run --privileged=true --net=host \
  -v allowlist.txt:/etc/redsocks-allowlist.txt \
  -d sclow/pylori 1.2.3.4 3128

Use docker stop to halt the container. The iptables rules should be reversed. If not, you can execute this command:

iptables-save | grep -v REDSOCKS | iptables-restore

To create the Pylori Image from within the checked out repository run:

docker build --tag pylori:1.0 .

Build the image with make.

Use make help to see available commands for this image.
