💖 ubuntu-proxy-manager(1) 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the manual for ubuntu-proxy-manager — literally the little service that handles all ur Ubuntu system proxy business so u don't have to. this is section 1 of the manual, iykyk. let's get into it 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

ubuntu-proxy-manager — manage Ubuntu system proxy settings 🦋

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

ubuntu-proxy-manager [options...]

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

so Ubuntu Proxy Manager is a D-Bus mediated service, and what that means is it's the girl who lets u manage ur system proxy settings through multiple backends — specifically APT, environment variables and GSettings. three backends, one icon 👑

🫶 heads up bestie: this program is not intended to be run by hand. like, at all. it's meant to be run by a D-Bus activated systemd service. let the service do its thing, okay?

when it gets activated, it will listen for D-Bus calls to set the system proxy configuration — that's APT, environment, and GSettings again, the whole trio 💖. and the way it works? if no D-Bus call comes in shortly after activation, the program will just exit. no lingering, no drama, she's gone ✨

🌈 OPTIONS 🌈

  • -d, --debug — enable debug logging 🔍 (yes she's nosy, but in a helpful way)
  • -v, --version — print version and exit 💫
  • -h, --help — print help message and exit 🙋‍♀️

👑 COMMANDS 👑

lowkey the shortest section ever: this program does not take any arguments. that's it. that's the whole vibe. periodt 💅

😭 REPORTING BUGS 😭

found a bug? don't suffer in silence bestie, tell someone! u can report bugs either:
