Community-edition: [Request] - Independent proxy settings for tab/service

Created on 20 Oct 2016  路  9Comments  路  Source: ramboxapp/community-edition

I leave in China, and here google services are blocked.
For this reason I need to use solutions such as Tor or Lantern in order to access to Gmail.

Rambox uses the system proxy setting, that is good, anyway if I set the system to use Lantern as proxy, Gmail works but Wechat not.
On Chrome I solve this kind of problem using SwitchyOmega extension ( a rule based proxy switcher ) so I use the proxy only on the pages that required it.

It would be nice to have a similar functionality on Rambox:

  • a simple option "use [_system proxy_|_Direct connection_]" for every service.

I guess this will cover the use cases of most users that need to uses a proxy

I just found out about custom code
Having the possibility to change proxy using custom code would be already a nice feature

can you share the custom code? tks

I would be also interested in this feature. I need to use proxy with some services only

Also: the rule based approach @postadelmaga mentioned is simply a .pac file (supported by electron)

Is this implemented already? I'm prevented from using some rambox services because of this.

If we could use extensions ( https://github.com/saenzramiro/rambox/issues/732#issuecomment-332891272) switchyomega will be enough

Would love to have an option to setup proxy per service, even if it's via extension.

I would have expected https://www.electronjs.org/docs/api/chrome-command-line-switches#--proxy-pac-urlurl to work with Rambox but this doesn't seem to be the case.
