Inconsistency: Proxy Bypass list #339
Description
Inconsistency in application of Bypass list to PAC scripts
- In Firefox
passthroughapplies to individual proxy settings as well asautoConfigUrl - In Chrome
bypassListapplies to individual proxy settings but NOTpacScript
The global Bypass list that applies to both individual proxies and PAC script is more functional and useable.
N.B. Other browsers have not been checked.
rules has a bypassList property.
const config = {
mode: "fixed_servers",
rules: {
proxyForHttp: {
scheme: "socks5",
host: "1.2.3.4"
},
bypassList: ["foobar.com"]
}
};pacScript doesn't have a bypassList property. Adding it will solve the issue.
const config = {
mode: "pac_script",
pacScript: {
data: "function FindProxyForURL(url, host) {\n" +
" if (host == 'foobar.com')\n" +
" return 'PROXY blackhole:80';\n" +
" return 'DIRECT';\n" +
"}",
bypassList: ["foobar.com"] // <- add bypassList
}
