SurfSocks is a SOCK5 proxy that proxies through the SurfShark VPN. This repo can be built for various architectures although my main use was for the Raspberry Pi 4 (armv71).

This image was inspired by and based on the following:

arch-privoxyvpn

wollen-socks

ovpn-openvpn-privoxy

Docker Run

Access Privoxy

http://<host ip>:8118

VPN_USER - This is the username provided by SurfShark from the manual setup section.

VPN_PASS - This is the password provided by SurfShark from the manual setup section.

VPN_FILE - This should be the path to the OVPN file used by OpenVPN. This is provided by SurfShark and is already part of the container. You will just have to specify the filename preceeded by /surfshark/ to reference the file in the existing location (ex. /surfshark/nl-ams.prod.surfshark.com_udp.ovpn).

PRIVATE_NET - The CIDR mask of the local IP addresses (e.g. 192.168.1.0/24, 10.1.1.0/24) which will be acessing the proxy. This is so the response to a request can be returned to the client (i.e. your browser). (Credits to joltcan)

You can override the privoxy settings by mounting your own config to /etc/privoxy.
