ss-local: Run a Shadowsocks proxy by specifying the config file.

ss-local

$ ss-local -c ${path-to-config-file-json}

try on your machine

The command "ss-local -c ${path-to-config-file-json}" is used to start the Shadowsocks client (ss-local) with a specified configuration file in JSON format.

Here is a breakdown of the command:

"ss-local": This is the executable or command used to run the Shadowsocks local client. It is responsible for connecting to a Shadowsocks server and forwarding network traffic through an encrypted tunnel.
"-c ${path-to-config-file-json}": The "-c" option is used to specify the path to the configuration file. "${path-to-config-file-json}" represents the actual file path and name of the JSON configuration file. You need to replace this placeholder with the actual path of your configuration file.

The configuration file (in JSON format) contains settings and parameters for the Shadowsocks client, such as server address, port, encryption method, and password. It defines how the client should connect to the server and handle the network traffic.

By running this command, the Shadowsocks client will read the configuration file and establish a secure connection to the specified server, allowing you to bypass internet censorship, access blocked content, or increase privacy and security while browsing the web.
