# sanskari-proxy
Original idea on my [ideas repo](https://github.com/captn3m0/ideas#-sanskari-proxy).
A proxy for researchers outside India to access Indian government websites without resorting to shady VPNs.
## Why?
- Indian government websites are often geo-blocked to India.
- Researchers outside India have no way to access these (other than shady VPNs)
## How?
- This is a simple tinyproxy configuration running on a Digital Ocean VPN in `BLR1` region.
## Access?
The Proxy configuration is as follows:
- Host: `proxy.sarkar.icu`
- Port: `8888`
The proxy supports both HTTP and HTTPS websites. Please send me an email [via this link](mailto:sanskari.proxy@captnemo.in?subject=Sanskari%20Proxy%20Access&body=Please%20add%20a%20link%20to%20some%20public%20profile%20of%20yours%20here.) to request access.
## Websites
The list of websites is filtered using a [filter](filter) file. The list was generated from 2 sources:
1. [GOI Directory](http://goidirectory.nic.in/).
2. Subdomains of `gov.in` discovered using [crt.sh](https://crt.sh).
A plain-text version of this list can be found on https://git.io/JrjcV
## Configuration changes
If you'd like to add a site to the list of supported websites, please file a PR. This project has a [Code of Conduct](CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md).
