SwitchyOmega
|
||||
============
|
||||
|
||||
A proxy extension for Chromium.
|
||||
Manage and switch between multiple proxies quickly & easily.
|
||||
|
||||
Development status
|
||||
==================
|
||||
Chromium Extension
|
||||
------------------
|
||||
The project is available as a Chromium Extension.
|
||||
|
||||
## Chromium Extension
|
||||
The project is now usable as a Chromium Extension.
|
||||
|
||||
You can try it on [Chrome Web Store](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/padekgcemlokbadohgkifijomclgjgif)
|
||||
|
||||
## Development Schedule
|
||||
The project is now in alpha, and still considered unstable. Any feedback is
|
||||
welcomed.
|
||||
You can try it on [Chrome Web Store](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/padekgcemlokbadohgkifijomclgjgif),
|
||||
or grab a packaged extension file for offline installation on the [Releases page](https://github.com/FelisCatus/SwitchyOmega/releases).
|
||||
|
||||
Please [report issues on the issue tracker.](https://github.com/FelisCatus/SwitchyOmega/issues)
|
||||
|
||||
## Build
|
||||
Development status
|
||||
------------------
|
||||
|
||||
SwitchyOmega has migrated to use npm and grunt for building.
|
||||
## PAC generator
|
||||
This project contains a PAC generating module called `omega-pac`, which handles
|
||||
the profiles model and compile profiles into PAC scripts. This module is standalone
|
||||
and can be published to npm when the documentation is ready.
|
||||
|
||||
## Options manager
|
||||
The folder `omega-target` contains browser-independent logic for managing the
|
||||
options and applying profiles. Every public method is well documented in the comments.
|
||||
Functions related to browser are not included, and shall be implemented in subclasses
|
||||
of the `omega-target` classes.
|
||||
|
||||
`omega-web` is a web-based configuration interface for various options and profiles.
|
||||
The interface works great with `omega-target` as the back-end.
|
||||
|
||||
`omega-web` alone is incomplete and requires a file named `omega_target_web.js`
|
||||
containing an angular module `omegaTarget`. The module contains browser-dependent
|
||||
code to communicate with `omega-target` back-end, and other code retrieving
|
||||
browser-related state and information.
|
||||
See the `omega-target-chromium-extension/omega_target_web.coffee` file for an
|
||||
example of such module.
|
||||
|
||||
## Targets
|
||||
The `omega-target-*` folders should contain environment-dependent code such as
|
||||
browser API calls.
|
||||
|
||||
Each target folder should contain an extended `OmegaTarget` object, which
|
||||
contains subclasses of the abstract base classes like `Options`. The classes
|
||||
contains implementation of the abstract methods, and can override other methods
|
||||
at will.
|
||||
|
||||
A target can copy the files in `omega-web` into its build to provide a web-based
|
||||
configuration interface. If so, the target must provide the `omega_target_web.js`
|
||||
file as described in the Options manager section.
|
||||
|
||||
Additionally, each target can contain other files and resources required for the
|
||||
target, such as background pages and extension manifests.
|
||||
|
||||
For now, only one target has been implemented: The Chromium Extension target.
|
||||
This target allows the project to be used as a Chromium extension in most
|
||||
Chromium-based browsers.
|
||||
|
||||
However, the project architecture allows more targets to be added in the future.
|
||||
The first step would be adapting more browsers including Firefox. I don't have
|
||||
time for that now. Feel free to open a pull request if you want to help.
|
||||
|
||||
## Translation
|
||||
|
||||
All translations are in the `omega-i18n` folder. For now, only `en` \(English\)
|
||||
and `zh` \(简体中文\) translations are done. If you notice a translation issue
|
||||
such as typo or bad spelling, please open an issue or a pull request.
|
||||
|
||||
You can also help to translate SwitchyOmega into your language. Just fork the
|
||||
project and copy the `en` folder to a new folder named the locale code of your
|
||||
choice. Then edit the `message.json` to provide translations. The file is in
|
||||
[Chrome Extension Locale-Specific Messages Format](https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/i18n-messages).
|
||||
Don't forget to open a pull request when you are done translating.
|
||||
|
||||
## Building the project
|
||||
|
||||
SwitchyOmega has migrated to use npm and grunt for building. Please note that
|
||||
npm 2.x is required for this project.

||||

|
||||
This will effectively run `grunt watch` in every module in this project.
