Suggestions for improvement of the Eddie CLI version

Hello. I've been very happy with Air so far, thank you for the great service!

I have some improvement suggestions/requests for the CLI version of the Eddie client though. I prefer to not run the GUI version for everyday use since it uses up more resources (not crazy much, but mono has 4-5% CPU usage while the CLI version always uses <1%). But what keeps me from using it is that there seems to be no way to disconnect from a server or reconnect to another without exiting Eddie and thus disabling the network lock. It would be great to make the client more interactive as in being able to disconnect from a server and have Eddie be in "idle" with still having the network lock enabled and, as another suggestion, be able to connect to a specific server from there again (rather than the recommended one). Maybe even implement a possibility to request an interactive server list like the ProtonVPN CLI client has it.

Also as a minor improvement I would suggest that the CLI client defaults to loading the default profile from ~/.airvpn and not the one in the root folder since the first one is where the login data is stored.

Thank you!

Hi. I do also prefer to use the CLI version and would like it to be a little more interactive.

Let me suggest you a couple of workarounds that may help you get something close to what you want, at least if you are running a linux like system.

In case you are running a linux system eddie uses iptables to lock the network. For this process, it backs up your iptables rules at the moment of launching eddie and restores them back when closing it. Being this so, you can set some rules of your own before starting eddie so you should be protected any time before running it or after closing it, including while you change from one server to another. If you use other operating system you may be able to find some similar solution.

You should have a look at airvpn's API.

https://airvpn.org/faq/api/

 

You can get your own API key in your user area. As a starting point you can make a file with the next code and replace <YOUR-API-KEY> with your own API key. (airvpn_server_status.sh)

 

#!/bin/bash

API_KEY="<YOUR_API_KEY>"

SERVICE_NAME="status"
FORMAT="json"

URL="https://airvpn.org/api/"
ARGS="{
\"format\":\"$FORMAT\",
\"service\":\"$SERVICE_NAME\",
\"key\":\"$API_KEY\"
}"

curl -d "$ARGS" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST "$URL"

Give it execution permissions:

chmod u+x airvpn_server_status.sh

This scripts outputs plenty of information on airvpn's servers and their current status formatted in json. You can explore the other available formats an the info available in the link above.

 

Hope this helps.

 

Edit:

API key is not really needed for getting this info in the status of the servers but it is for some other info on your current connections and so.

Thank you for the suggestions! I am running Linux, forgot to mention that. Configuring iptables to lock the network by default seems like a good idea. The API is new to me, I will look into that and try to build a little script, thanks!

Just for the sake of sharing, this weekend I found some time to play around and made this script, you can have a look and use/modify it if you find it useful.

 

The script downloads and shows the list of airvpn servers for the user to chose one to connect to interactively.

The server list is downloaded with curl to /tmp/airvpn_server_list.txt if it doesn't exist or if forced with the -u commandline argument. In my system /tmp is wiped on each reboot so the server list will be updated at least once after a boot.

Then the servers are offered through dmenu for the user to select one. dmenu works great here as you can start writing any part of the server's, the country's or the city's name and the options will be filtered. You can even write a part of a country name and separated with space write part of some other part of the line and the list will reduce as well.

Finally select one of the lines and eddie-ui -cli will be called to connect to the selected server (sudo is used so will ask for credentials).

 

You will need to install the mentioned tools on your system (or change the script to your convenience):

curl

dmenu

sudo (or remove it and run the script as root)

 

Here the code of the script:

#!/bin/bash

TMP_SERVER_LIST_FILE="/tmp/airvpn_server_list.txt"

show_help()
{
    echo "Usage:"; cat <<EOF |column -ts:
    [-u]: Force server list update.
    [-h]: Show this help.
EOF
}

update_server_list()
{
declare URL="https://airvpn.org/api/"
declare ARGS="{
\"format\":\"text\",
\"service\":\"status\"
}"
curl -d "$ARGS" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST "$URL" > "$TMP_SERVER_LIST_FILE"
}

select_server()
{
SERVER=$(grep -e '^servers' "$TMP_SERVER_LIST_FILE" |grep \
    -e public_name \
    -e country_name \
    -e location \
    -e '.bw=' \
    -e '.bw_max=' \
    -e users |cut -d= -f2 |paste -d"|" - - - - - - | \
    sed -e 's/\(^[^|]*\)|\([^|]*\)|\([^|]*\)|\([^|]*\)|\([^|]*\)|\([^|]*\)$/\1|\3|\2|\4\/\5 Mbit\/s|\6 users/' | column -ts"|" |dmenu -i -l 11)
}

declare -a OPTS

while getopts "uh" opt
do
    case $opt in
        u) CMD_UPDATE_SERVER_LIST=1;;
        h) show_help; exit 0;;
        \?) show_help; exit 1;;
    esac
done
shift $(($OPTIND-1))

if [ ! -f "$TMP_SERVER_LIST_FILE" -o -n "$CMD_UPDATE_SERVER_LIST" ]
then
    update_server_list
    echo "Downloaded server list to $TMP_SERVER_LIST_FILE"
fi

select_server

if [ -n "$SERVER" ] 
then
    sudo /usr/bin/eddie-ui -cli -netlock -connect -server="$(echo "$SERVER" |cut -d" " -f1)"
else
    echo "No server selected"
fi

Save it with any name, make it executable and just call it.

 

If you see you want your server list updated add -u to the call.

 

NOTE:

In a previous post I suggested you had some iptables rules blocking your connection when not connected to airvpn. If done so, the script wont be able to download the server list and you should change it so that the file will remain after a reboot (change its location). And maybe add the possibility to update that list without trying to connect to any server (add an exit 0 after the update).

 

Have fun!

Haha coincidentally I did the same thing and got into it maybe more than I should have, time investment wise... Thank you for sharing though! dmenu is a cool idea, the server list part was quite a mess to get together for me.

I'm no programmer, just learning this while doing, so this is probably far from elegant and "good practice", also planning to improve it, but here is what I got so far, it works:

 

It's a script that can be run to interface with the client in the background, it doesn't have to be open and eddie will be run invisibly. You can also get a server list (although not interactive yet), show some info about the current session and put a permanent default iptables network lock in place, applied through firewalld (because I'm on Fedora). The server list and user info (and also this website) is also available with the lock turned on. The script requires only curl, awk and eddie itself (and firewalld for the lock, but that can be adjusted to iptables directly), I tried to stay with system tools.
