A library to parse proxy auto-config (PAC) files. Proxy auto-config
|
|
files are a vastly used proxy configuration method these days. Web
|
|
browsers can use a PAC file to determine which proxy server to use
|
|
or whether to go direct for a given URL. PAC files are written in
|
|
JavaScript and can be programmed to return different proxy methods
|
|
(e.g. "PROXY proxy1:port; DIRECT") depending upon URL, source IP
|
|
address, protocol, time of the day etc. PAC files introduce a lot
|
|
of possibilities.
|
|
Needless to say, PAC files are now a widely accepted method for
|
|
proxy configuration management and companies all over are using
|
|
them in corporate environments. Almost all popular web browsers
|
|
support PAC files. The idea behind pacparser is to make it easy to
|
|
add this PAC file parsing capability to any program (C and Python
|
|
supported right now).
