remipn

Remipn is a modern, lightweight, cross-platform VPN manager written in Rust. It offers an interactive Terminal User Interface (TUI) and a powerful Command Line Interface (CLI) to manage your VPN connections with ease.

Features

• 🖥️ Interactive TUI: Manage your VPN profiles with an intuitive terminal interface based on ratatui.
• ⌨️ CLI Support: Quick commands to connect, disconnect, and check VPN status.
• 🔄 Smart Connection Management: Automatically handles switching between different VPNs, ensuring only one is active at a time.
• ⏳ Real-time Feedback: Connection status monitoring with an automatic retry mechanism and polling.
• 📁 Profile Import: Supports importing profiles from XML files, including automatic detection of Azure VPN Client profiles on macOS.
• 🚀 Auto-Import: Automatic scanning of default and system directories (~/.config/remipn/imports/ and Azure VPN paths).
• 🔍 Search and Filters: Quickly find your profiles by name, category, or alias.
• 📂 Cross-Platform: Support for Windows (rasdial), Linux (nmcli), and macOS (scutil).
• ⌨️ CLI Shorthands: Quick command aliases (c, d, s, l) for power users.
