Proxy2VPN Python utilities

Project description

Proxy2VPN

Python command-line interface for managing multiple VPN containers with Docker.

Features

  • Manage VPN credentials as reusable profiles
  • Create and control VPN services
  • Fleet management: Bulk deployment across multiple cities and profiles
  • Multi-service control with --all flags
  • Query and validate provider server locations
  • HTTP proxy authentication support
  • Server health monitoring and automatic rotation
  • Intelligent profile allocation with load balancing

Installation

Install proxy2vpn from PyPI using your preferred Python tool:

pip

pip install proxy2vpn
proxy2vpn --help

uv

uv tool install proxy2vpn
proxy2vpn --help

uvx

Run the CLI without installing it:

uvx proxy2vpn --help

pipx

pipx install proxy2vpn
proxy2vpn --help

Quick Start

  1. Initialize the compose file:

    proxy2vpn system init
    
  2. Create a profile file with your VPN credentials:

    mkdir -p profiles
    cat <<'EOF' > profiles/myprofile.env
    OPENVPN_USER=your_username
    OPENVPN_PASSWORD=your_password
    HTTPPROXY=on
    HTTPPROXY_USER=your_proxy_username
    HTTPPROXY_PASSWORD=your_proxy_password
    EOF
    
  3. Register the profile:

    proxy2vpn profile create myprofile profiles/myprofile.env
    
  4. Create and start a VPN service:

    proxy2vpn vpn create vpn1 myprofile --port 8888 --provider protonvpn --location "New York"
    proxy2vpn profile apply myprofile vpn1 --port 8888
    proxy2vpn vpn start vpn1  # container is recreated from compose.yml
    
  5. View status and test connectivity:

    proxy2vpn vpn list
    proxy2vpn vpn test vpn1
    

Fleet Management

For bulk deployment across multiple cities and VPN accounts:

  1. Create multiple profiles with different account credentials:

    # Create profiles for different VPN accounts
    proxy2vpn profile create account1 profiles/account1.env
    proxy2vpn profile create account2 profiles/account2.env  
    
  2. Plan a fleet deployment across countries:

    # Deploy across Germany and France with 2 slots on account1, 8 on account2
    proxy2vpn fleet plan --countries "Germany,France,Netherlands" --profiles "account1:2,account2:8"
    
  3. Deploy the planned fleet:

    proxy2vpn fleet deploy --parallel
    
  4. Monitor and manage the fleet:

    # View fleet status with profile allocation
    proxy2vpn fleet status --show-allocation
    
    # Rotate failed servers automatically
    proxy2vpn fleet rotate --dry-run
