This guide will help you set up a standalone Snowflake proxy using Docker to help censored users connect to the Tor network. We have a Docker image to ease the setup of a Snowflake proxy.

1. Install Docker

Maelekezo katika hatua hii ni ya mifumo inayotumia Debian, lakini unaweza kupata maelekezo ya Docker kwa mifumo mingine inayotumika.

Open a terminal and run these commands:

$ sudo apt install curl
$ curl -fsSL https://get.docker.com -o get-docker.sh
$ sudo sh get-docker.sh

2. Download the docker compose file

Download the docker-compose.yml configuration file. Run the command to download it:

$ wget https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/anti-censorship/docker-snowflake-proxy/raw/main/docker-compose.yml

Kisha, peleka proksi kwa kuendesha:

docker compose up -d snowflake-proxy

This command starts the Snowflake proxy in detached mode. Unapaswa sasa kuona matokeo:

Creating snowflake-proxy ... done

Na proksi yako iko tayari na inaendeshwa!

3. Checking your Docker logs

To access your Snowflake proxy logs, first find the container ID number. Endesha amri:

$ docker ps

Your Snowflake container ID is on the same line of thetorproject/snowflake-proxy:latest. Replace the container ID below with yours and run the command:

$ docker logs -f 42fb82372340

4. Automatic updates with Watchtower

The docker-compose.yml file contains a watchtower container, configured to automatically check for updates to the snowflake docker container every day, download them and run them. If you would like to use it, run the following command:

$ docker compose up -d

Now your snowflake proxy will stay updated automatically!

Vinginevyo,utahitaji kuvuta kontena mpya mara kwa mara na kuiwasha upya wewe mwenyewe.
