# Pluggable Transports for iOS IPtProxy is the primary reusable library for integrating the latest anti-censorhip capabilities into your mobile app. You can find IPtProxy at with the "live" development work also done at Both Lyrebird/Obfs4proxy and Snowflake Pluggable Transports are written in Go, which is a little annoying to use on iOS and Android. This project encapsulates all the machinations to make it work and provides an easy to install binary including a wrapper around both. Problems solved in particular are: * One cannot compile `main` packages with `gomobile`. Both PTs are patched to avoid this. * Both PTs are gathered under one roof here, since you cannot have two `gomobile` frameworks as dependencies, since there are some common Go runtime functions exported, which would create a name clash. * Environment variable changes during runtime will not be recognized by `goptlib` when done from within Swift/Objective-C. Therefore, sensible values are hardcoded in the Go wrapper. * Snowflake and Lyrebird/Obfs4proxy are patched to accept all configuration parameters directly. * Free ports to be used are automatically found by this library and returned to the consuming app. You can use the initial values for premature configuration, which is just fine in situations, where you can be pretty sure, they're going to be available (typically on iOS). When that's not the case (e.g. multiple instances of your app on a multi-user Android), you should first start the transports and then use the returned ports for configuration of other components (e.g. Tor). --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question. Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter: ``` GET https://guide.onionmobile.dev/tor-on-ios/iptproxy-pluggable-transports.md?ask= ``` The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
