luci-app-xray

luci-app-v2ray refined to client side rendering (and switched to xray as well).

Focus on making the most of Xray (HTTP/HTTPS/Socks/TProxy inbounds, multiple protocols support, DNS server, bridge (reverse proxy), even HTTPS proxy server for actual HTTP services) while keeping thin and elegant.

Warnings

• Since OpenWrt 22.03 release, the recommended firewall implementation for this project is now firewall4 with some caveats

  • currently this project still works on OpenWrt 19.07 / 21.02 versions. There's a warning about missing kmod-nft-tproxy when using these versions, just ignore it. This problem will be fixed later.
  • support for versions mentioned above will soon be deprecated, which means that most new features won't be implemented for these old versions. Check changelog for details about future changes and availability of various new features.
  • there is a possible bug in nftables 1.0.3 / 1.0.4 which breaks tproxy, so if you use master branch, make sure your source code is newer than 36bec544d73dbed46f06875fdfa570e89a40e553
  • currently building ipk with OpenWrt SDK is NOT tested and is NOT likely to work right now. If you are building ipks yourself, use the proper version of buildroot toolchain which matches the firewall implementation (fw3 or fw4) you are using.

• There will be a series of BREAKING CHANGES in the following months due to some major refactor of DNS module. Please read changelog carefully to know about breaking changes and always backup your configuration files before updating.

• If you see WARNING: at least one of asset files (geoip.dat, geosite.dat) is not found under /usr/share/xray. Xray may not work properly and don't know what to do:

  • try opkg update && opkg install xray-geodata (at least OpenWrt 21.02 releases)
  • if that doesn't work or you are using OpenWrt 19.07 releases, see #52

• This project DOES NOT SUPPORT the following versions of OpenWrt due to the fact that client side rendering requires LuCI client side APIs shipped with at least OpenWrt 19.07 releases.

  • LEDE 17.01
  • OpenWrt 18.06
  • Lean's OpenWrt Source (which uses a variant of LuCI shipped with OpenWrt 18.06)

  If this is your case, use Passwall or similar projects instead (you could find links in XTLS/Xray-core).

• For OpenWrt 19.07 releases, you need to prepare your own xray-core package (just download from Releases · yichya/openwrt-xray and install that) because building Xray from source requires Go 1.17 which is currently only available in at least OpenWrt 21.02 releases.

• This project may change its code structure, configuration files format, user interface or dependencies quite frequently since it is still in its very early stage.

Changelog 2021

• 2021-01-01 feature: build Xray from source; various fixes about tproxy and logging
• 2021-01-25 feature: Xray act as HTTPS server
• 2021-01-29 fix: add ipset as dependency to fix transparent proxy problems; remove useless and faulty extra_command in init.d script
• 2021-01-29 feature: decouple with Xray original binary and data files. Use openwrt-xray instead.
• 2021-01-30 feature: select GeoIP set for direct connection. This is considered a BREAKING change because if unspecified, all IP addresses is forwarded through Xray.
• 2021-03-17 feature: support custom configuration files by using Xray integrated Multiple configuration files support. Check /var/etc/xray/config.json for tags of generated inbounds and outbounds.
• 2021-03-20 fix: no longer be compatible with OpenWrt Packages: xray-core because of naming conflict of configuration file and init script. Again, use openwrt-xray instead.
• 2021-03-21 feature: detailed fallback config for Xray HTTPS server
• 2021-03-27 feature: check data files before using them. If data files don't exist, Xray will run in 'full' mode (all outgoing network traffic will be forwarded through Xray). Make sure you have a working server in this case or you have to disable Xray temporarily (SSH into your router and run service xray stop) for debugging. You can download data files from Releases · XTLS/Xray-core or Loyalsoldier/v2ray-rules-dat and upload them to /usr/share/xray on your router, or just compile your firmware with data files included (recommended in most cases).
• 2021-04-02 feature: utls fingerprint (currently not available for xtls and will be supported in Xray-core v1.5.0)
• 2021-04-06 feature: customize DNS bypass rules. This is considered a BREAKING change because if unspecified, all DNS requests is forwarded through Xray.
• 2021-05-15 feature: add gRPC Transport settings; make init script infinite retry optional
• 2021-07-03 fix: write upstream hostname to dnsmasq configurations to avoid infinite loop while resolving upstream hostname
• 2021-08-31 feature: Accept more DNS server formats
• 2021-09-19 fix: compatible with latest dnsmasq (2.86) by adding strict-order to dnsmasq options generated by luci-app-xray. This should not affect compatibility with earlier dnsmasq versions (mostly 2.85) but if you encounter problems please report.
• 2021-09-26 fix: several issues related to HTTPS server
• 2021-10-01 fix: parsing default gateway in some cases

• 2021-11-14 feat: LAN access control for transparent proxy. Devices can be set to not being transparently proxied per MAC address.
• 2021-11-15 feat: manual transparent proxy. A use case is accessing IPv6 only websites without any IPv6 address (for example, 192.0.2.1:443 -> tracker.byr.pt:443 and add hosts item 192.0.2.1 byr.pt)
• 2021-11-20 feat: alpn settings for outbound

This should work in most cases and your previous configuration file of luci-app-xray is also preserved, but if you encounter problems please report.
• 2021-12-26 feat: support custom DNS port
