Sox

Sox is a library for creating SOCKS5 clients and servers. Sox is a network proxy and can proxy connections like HTTP requests or ssh connections.

Documentation

For more documentation on the specs, this implementation is based on please read documents at ./docs/specs.

Installation

Add this to your application's shard.yml:

dependencies:
  sox:
    github: wontruefree/sox

Usage

A SOCKS Client so to make a connection you have to have a corresponding SOCKS server. The easiest one to use is ssh.

To start up a local ssh SOCKS server you can connect to yourself.

# Setup SOCKS on localhost
ssh -D 1080 -C -N 127.0.0.1

Have a local SOCKS server directing its connection to a remote host.

# Setup SOCKS connecting to remote host
ssh -D 1080 -C -N user@remote.com

Basic Usage

Basic Socket

To open a SOCKS connection and send a basic HTTP request and get a response.

require "sox"

socket = Sox.new(addr: "52.85.89.35")
request = HTTP::Request.new("GET", "/", HTTP::Headers{"Host" => "crystal-lang.org"})

request.to_io(socket)
socket.flush

response = HTTP::Client::Response.from_io(socket)
if response.success?
  puts "Got to crystal through SOCKS5!!!"
end

Basic Client

Sox::Client functions almost like the Crystal (HTTP::Client)[https://crystal-lang.org/api/latest/HTTP/Client.html]

client = Sox::Client.new("www.example.com", host_addr: "127.0.0.1", host_port: 1080)
response = client.get("/")
puts response.status_code      # => 200
puts response.body.lines.first # => "<!doctype html>"
client.close

Basic UDP

Sox::UDP functions almost like the Crystal (UDPSocket)[https://crystal-lang.org/api/latest/UDPSocket.html]

server = UDPSocket.new
server.bind "localhost", 9999

client = Sox::UDP.new(host_addr: "127.0.0.1", host_port: 1080)
client.connect "localhost", 9999

client.send "message"
message, client_addr = server.receive

message     # => "message"
client_addr # => Socket::IPAddress(127.0.0.1:50516)

client.close
server.close

you can use Sox::Client almost like the Crystal (HTTP::Client)[https://crystal-lang.org/api/latest/HTTP/Client.html]

client = Sox::Client.new("www.example.com", host_addr: "127.0.0.1", host_port: 1080)
response = client.get("/")
puts response.status_code      # => 200
puts response.body.lines.first # => "<!doctype html>"
client.close

Remote server connnection

To open a connection to a remote SOCKS5 Server.

require "sox"

socket = Sox.new(host_addr: "gateway.com", addr: "52.85.89.35")
request = HTTP::Request.new("GET", "/", HTTP::Headers{"Host" => "crystal-lang.org"})

request.to_io(socket)
socket.flush

response = HTTP::Client::Response.from_io?(socket)
if response.success?
  puts "Got to crystal through SOCKS5!!!"
end

Connection using none default ports

Sometimes you connect to web servers or remote SOCKS servers on ports that are not default. This is built into the top level interface no having to deal with requests or connection requests directly.

require "sox"

socket = Sox.new(host_addr: "gateway.com" host_port: 8010, addr: "52.85.89.35", port: 3000)
request = HTTP::Request.new("GET", "/", HTTP::Headers{"Host" => "crystal-lang.org"})

request.to_io(socket)
socket.flush

response = HTTP::Client::Response.from_io?(socket)
if response.success?
  puts "Got to crystal through SOCKS5!!!"
end

Specs

Before running specs you should add your public key to the authorized keys. Please read below if you have not previously set up a socks server for testing. Although I like Unit Test Spec SOCKS only use tools in the stdlib so this is written in spec style syntax.

Runnning specs

To run the test suite use the spec command built into crystal.

crystal spec

Setup SOCKS Server

enable key based authentication for testing

# enable key based localhost authentication
cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub > ~/.ssh/authorized_keys

TOR

There are some basic tests for a commonly used SOCKS5 server tor.

Debian

Install tor via apt.

sudo apt install tor

Optional: Start tor at login and keep tor running in the background.

systemctl start tor

MAC

Use homebrew to install tor on your mac.

brew install tor

Optional: Use brew services to keep tor running in the background.

brew services start tor
