Proxy auto-config + files are a vastly used proxy configuration method these days. Web + browsers can use a PAC file to determine which proxy server to use + or whether to go direct for a given URL. PAC files are written in + JavaScript and can be programmed to return different proxy methods + (e.g. "PROXY proxy1:port; DIRECT") depending upon URL, source IP + address, protocol, time of the day etc. PAC files introduce a lot + of possibilities. + Needless to say, PAC files are now a widely accepted method for + proxy configuration management and companies all over are using + them in corporate environments. Almost all popular web browsers + support PAC files. The idea behind pacparser is to make it easy to + add this PAC file parsing capability to any program (C and Python + supported right now). +</longdescription> + <upstream> + <remote-id type="github">pacparser/pacparser</remote-id> + </upstream> +</pkgmetadata> |
