shadowsocks-libev

shadowsocks-libev is a lightweight secured socks5 proxy for embedded devices and low end boxes. It is a port of shadowsocks created by @clowwindy maintained by @madeye and @linusyang.

Suppose we have a VPS running Debian or Ubuntu. To deploy the service quickly, we can use docker.

Install docker

$ curl -sSL https://get.docker.com/ | sh
$ docker --version

Build docker image

$ curl -sSL https://github.com/shadowsocks/shadowsocks-libev/raw/master/docker/alpine/Dockerfile | docker build -t shadowsocks-libev -
$ docker images

You can also use a pre-built docker image: vimagick/shadowsocks-libev .

Run docker container

$ docker run -d -e METHOD=aes-256-cfb -e PASSWORD=9MLSpPmNt -p 8388:8388 --restart always shadowsocks-libev
$ docker ps

Use docker-compose to manage (optional)

It is very handy to use docker-compose to manage docker containers. You can download the binary at https://github.com/docker/compose/releases.

This is a sample docker-compose.yml file.

shadowsocks:
  image: shadowsocks-libev
  ports:
    - "8388:8388"
  environment:
    - METHOD=aes-256-cfb
    - PASSWORD=9MLSpPmNt
  restart: always

It is highly recommended that you setup a directory tree to make things easy to manage.

$ mkdir -p ~/fig/shadowsocks/
$ cd ~/fig/shadowsocks/
$ curl -sSLO https://github.com/shadowsocks/shadowsocks-libev/raw/master/docker/alpine/docker-compose.yml
$ docker-compose up -d
$ docker-compose ps

Finish
