1 pac-resolver 2 ============ 3 ### Generates an asynchronous resolver function from a [PAC file][pac-wikipedia] 4 [](https://github.com/TooTallNate/node-pac-resolver/actions?workflow=Node+CI) 5 6 7 This module accepts a JavaScript String of code, which is meant to be a 8 [PAC proxy file][pac-wikipedia], and returns a generated asynchronous 9 `FindProxyForURL()` function. 10 11 12 Installation 13 ------------ 14 15 Install with `npm`: 16 17 ```bash 18 $ npm install pac-resolver 19 ``` 20 21 22 Example 23 ------- 24 25 Given the PAC proxy file named `proxy.pac`: 26 27 ```js 28 function FindProxyForURL(url, host) { 29 if (isInNet(myIpAddress(), "10.1.10.0", "255.255.255.0")) { 30 return "PROXY 1.2.3.4:8080"; 31 } else { 32 return "DIRECT"; 33 } 34 } 35 ``` 36 37 You can consume this PAC file with `pac-resolver` like so: 38 39 ```js 40 var fs = require('fs'); 41 var pac = require('pac-resolver'); 42 43 var FindProxyForURL = pac(fs.readFileSync('proxy.pac')); 44 45 FindProxyForURL('http://foo.com/').then((res) => { 46 console.log(res); 47 // "DIRECT" 48 }); 49 ``` 50 51 52 API 53 --- 54 55 ### pac(String pacFileContents[, Object options]) → Function 56 57 Returns an asynchronous `FindProxyForURL()` function based off of the given JS 58 string `pacFileContents` PAC proxy file. An optional `options` object may be 59 passed in which respects the following options: 60 61 * `filename` - String - the filename to use in error stack traces. Defaults to `proxy.pac`. 62 * `sandbox` - Object - a map of functions to include in the sandbox of the 63 JavaScript environment where the JS code will be executed. i.e. if you wanted to 64 include the common `alert` function you could pass `alert: console.log`. For 65 async functions, you must set the `async = true` property on the function 66 instance, and the JS code will be able to invoke the function as if it were 67 synchronous. 68 69 70 License 71 ------- 72 73 (The MIT License) 74 75 Copyright (c) 2013 Nathan Rajlich <nathan@tootallnate.net> 76 77 Permission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person obtaining 78 a copy of this software and associated documentation files (the 79 'Software'), to deal in the Software without restriction, including 80 without limitation the rights to use, copy, modify, merge, publish, 81 distribute, sublicense, and/or sell copies of the Software, and to 82 permit persons to whom the Software is furnished to do so, subject to 83 the following conditions: 84 85 The above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be 86 included in all copies or substantial portions of the Software. 87 88 THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED 'AS IS', WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, 89 EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE WARRANTIES OF 90 MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NONINFRINGEMENT. 91 IN NO EVENT SHALL THE AUTHORS OR COPYRIGHT HOLDERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY 92 CLAIM, DAMAGES OR OTHER LIABILITY, WHETHER IN AN ACTION OF CONTRACT, 93 TORT OR OTHERWISE, ARISING FROM, OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE 94 SOFTWARE OR THE USE OR OTHER DEALINGS IN THE SOFTWARE. 95 96 [pac-file-docs]: https://web.archive.org/web/20070602031929/http://wp.netscape.com/eng/mozilla/2.0/relnotes/demo/proxy-live.html 97 [pac-wikipedia]: http://wikipedia.org/wiki/Proxy_auto-config
