# ClashTui

[clashtui_demo.webm](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/51d3ee85-b1f4-4d02-9a43-623153e3825b)

Language: [English](./README.md) | [中文](./README_ZH.md)

ClashTui is a terminal user interface (TUI) proxy management tool supporting both **Mihomo** (Clash.Meta) and **sing-box** proxy cores. Switch nodes, update subscriptions, manage connections, and control services — all from the terminal.

## Features

- **Dual Core Support** — Compatible with both Mihomo and sing-box; switch anytime in the UI
- **Subscription Management** — Supports File, URL, and Template (ClashTui template) profile types
- **Proxy Switching** — Switch by group or by node, with latency testing
- **Connection Monitoring** — View all active connections in real time; close individual or all connections
- **Service Control** — Manage core start, stop, and restart via systemd
- **Log Viewing** — View core logs in real time within the interface
- **CLI Mode** — Supports `profile`, `mode`, `service`, `update` subcommands for scripting and automation
- **Config Override** — Override final config via `core_override_config` without modifying original subscription files
- **Template System** — Auto-generate config files using templates + proxy node groups, with variable expansion (recommended for sing-box to avoid configuration version issues)
- **Custom Key Bindings** — Customize shortcuts for each tab via `keymap.yaml`
- **Custom themes** - user-definable via theme.yaml
- **which panel** - convenient for user operations
- **Supports fzf** - users can use fzf for selection

## Supported Platforms

-   [x] Linux
-   [x] macOs
-   [x] Windows

## Installation

### Requirements

Linux and macOS:
-   sudo
-   fzf

Windows:
-   nssm

### With root access (for TUN mode)

#### Linux

1. \[Optional\] Install mihomo and clashtui from your package repository:

```sh
sudo pacman -S mihomo sing-box clashtui  # ArchLinux. (Note: the latest clashtui may not be uploaded yet — please build and install it manually)
```

This step ensures mihomo, sing-box, and clashtui are available in your environment so the install script will skip downloading them. You can also download them manually and run `which mihomo sing-box clashtui` to verify they are correctly configured.

2. Run the install script:

```sh
bash <(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/JohanChane/clashtui/refs/heads/main/installs/install) --core all
```

Tip: The install script downloads resources from GitHub. If downloads keep failing, try enabling a proxy before running the script.

3. \[Optional\] Enable `clashtui_mihomo.service` / `clashtui_singbox.service` on boot:

```sh
sudo systemctl enable clashtui_mihomo.service
# OR
sudo systemctl enable clashtui_singbox.service
```

#### macOS

1. \[Optional\] Install mihomo and clashtui from Homebrew:

```sh
brew install mihomo sing-box clashtui  # Note: the latest clashtui may not be uploaded yet — please build and install it manually
```

2. Run the install script (same as Linux):

```sh
bash <(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/JohanChane/clashtui/refs/heads/main/installs/install) --core all
```

3. \[Optional\] Enable `clashtui_mihomo` / `clashtui_singbox` launchd plists on boot:

```sh
sudo launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/clashtui_mihomo.plist
# OR
sudo launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/clashtui_singbox.plist
```

#### Windows

1. \[Optional\] Install mihomo and clashtui from Scoop:

```powershell
scoop install mihomo sing-box clashtui  # Note: the latest clashtui may not be uploaded yet — please build and install it manually
# Verify
Get-Command mihomo sing-box clashtui
```

This step ensures mihomo, sing-box, and clashtui are in PATH so the install script will skip downloading them.

2. Run the install script (as Administrator):

```powershell
# Default install to D:\ClashTui
irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/JohanChane/clashtui/refs/heads/main/installs/install.ps1 | iex

# Custom directory (no spaces allowed)
iex "& {$(irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/JohanChane/clashtui/refs/heads/main/installs/install.ps1)} -Core all -InstallDir 'D:\MyTools\ClashTui'"

# Only install mihomo core
iex "& {$(irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/JohanChane/clashtui/refs/heads/main/installs/install.ps1)} -Core mihomo"
```

3. Start clashtui, then use CoreSrvCtl to install and start core services:

The install script does NOT register Windows Services. Launch clashtui and use the built-in CoreSrvCtl to manage services. Enable only one core service at boot (do not enable both simultaneously).

### Without root access (no TUN)

#### Linux

```sh
bash <(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/JohanChane/clashtui/refs/heads/main/installs/install) --core all --is-user
```

Enable on boot:

```sh
systemctl --user enable clashtui_mihomo.service
# OR
systemctl --user enable clashtui_singbox.service
```

#### macOS

```sh
bash <(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/JohanChane/clashtui/refs/heads/main/installs/install) --core all --is-user
```

Enable on boot:

```sh
launchctl load -w ~/Library/LaunchAgents/clashtui_mihomo.plist
# OR
launchctl load -w ~/Library/LaunchAgents/clashtui_singbox.plist
```

## FAQ

-   File permission issues: Since clashtui requires group permissions, please log in again for the group permissions to take effect.
-   Connection refused issues (e.g., with mihomo): Please use `netstat -utapln | grep 9090` to check whether the Clash API port is open.
