A python module interact with manager-mode shadowsocks-libev or shadowsocks-python server.
Shadowsocks-libev consists of five components. ss-manager(1) is a controller for multi-user management and traffic statistics, using UNIX domain socket to talk with
ss-server.
This module works like ss-manager,
except it provide Python API instead of UNIX domain socket or UDP API.
It has own implementation rather than communicate with ss-manager, hence
the only dependence is ss-server.
Since version 0.2.0, it plays happily with not only ss-libev but also the Python port.
$ pip install git+https://github.com/bitkwan/ssmanager.git
Example:
from ssmanager import Server
from ssmanager.sslibev import Manager
# For Python port, use:
# from ssmanager.sspy import Manager
manager = Manager(ss_bin='/usr/bin/ss-server')
# Point to ssserver if using Python port.
manager.start()
server = Server(1234, 'password', 'aes-256-cfb',
udp=True, ota=True, fast_open=True)
manager.add(server)
manager.remove(server) # Or manager.remove(1234)
servers = [Server(...), ...]
manager.update(servers)
manager.stat()
# Return a dict of { port_number: total_traffic_in_bytes }.
manager.stop()It's easy to build multiple-user/port Shadowsocks servers with a centrally server who distributes user configurations using ssmanager. A simple example is following.
Upload a JSON file to, for example, http://example.com/ss-profiles.json. The JSON contains all profiles of Shadowsocks users:
[{port=8001, password='test123', method='chacha20'},
{port=8002, password='123test', method='aes-256-cfb'}]Following script grab this JSON every 2 minutes and update its configs if content of the JSON changed. (Exception handling is omited.)
import time, requests
from ssmanager import Server
from ssmanager.sspy import Manager
manager = Manager()
while True:
profiles = requests.get('http://example.com/ss-profiles.json').json()
manager.update([Server(**p) for p in profiles])
time.sleep(120)
