This is a shadowsocks snap app. After it has been installed, we can use the command:
$ sudo snap set ssocks server=shadowsocks_server_ip serverport=12255 localport=7777 password=yourpassword method=aes-128-cfb timeout=600
to generate a file config.json at SNAP_DATA. You only need to do it once. Then
$ ssocks
it will help you make the connection. Due to a bug at https://bugs.launchpad.net/snappy/+bug/1640114. configure hook not working yet on 16.04 desktop, you may manually go the directory at:
/var/snap/ssocks/current
to create a file named "config.json", and its content is like:
{ "server":"your shadowssocker server", "server_port":12255, "local_port":7777, "password":"your password", "method": "aes-128-cfb", "timeout":600 }
Then, run：
$ ssocks
You can also just simply use the "ssocks.cli" command to start the shadowsocks. For more info, you can use "sscoks.cli --help"
Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.
Snaps are discoverable and installable from the Snap Store, an app store with an audience of millions.
If you’re running Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (Xenial Xerus) or later, including Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (Bionic Beaver) and Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (Focal Fossa), you don’t need to do anything. Snap is already installed and ready to go.
For versions of Ubuntu between 14.04 LTS (Trusty Tahr) and 15.10 (Wily Werewolf), as well as Ubuntu flavours that don’t include snap by default, snap can be installed from the Ubuntu Software Centre by searching for snapd.
Alternatively, snapd can be installed from the command line:
sudo apt update
sudo apt install snapd
Either log out and back in again, or restart your system, to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly.
To install ssocks, simply use the following command:
sudo snap install ssocks
Browse and find snaps from the convenience of your desktop using the snap store snap.
