SOCKS5 client/server library using async/.await

🚸 Currently it’s in heavy development and may frequently change.

Features

• An async/.await SOCKS5 implementation.
• No unsafe code
• Built on-top of async-std library
• Ultra lightweight and scalable
• No system dependencies
• Cross-platform
• Authentication methods:
  • No-Auth method
  • Username/Password auth method
  • Custom auth methods can be implemented via the Authentication Trait
• All SOCKS5 RFC errors (replies) should be mapped
• AsyncRead + AsyncWrite traits are implemented on Socks5Stream & Socks5Socket
• IPv4, IPv6, and Domains types are supported
• Config helper for Socks5Server
• Helpers to run a Socks5Server à la "async-std's TcpStream" via incoming.next().await
• Examples come with real cases commands scenarios
• Can disable DNS resolving
• Can skip the authentication/handshake process, which will directly handle command's request (useful to save useless round-trips in an already authenticated environment)
• Can disable command execution (useful if you just want to forward the request to an another server)

Install

Open in crates.io.

Examples

Please check examples directory.

```bash

Run client

RUST_LOG=debug cargo run --example client -- --socks-server 127.0.0.1:1337 --username admin --password password -a perdu.com -p 80

Run server

RUST_LOG=debug cargo run --example server -- --listen-addr 127.0.0.1:1337 password -u admin -p password

Test it with cURL

curl -v --proxy socks5://admin:password@127.0.0.1:1337 https://ipapi.co/json/ ```

TODO

• Tests have to be implemented
• Better Rust doc
• Bind command not implemented
• UDP command not implemented
