**fteproxy** provides transport-layer protection to resist keyword filtering, censorship, and discriminatory routing policies using Format-Transforming Encryption (FTE).

## Installation

```bash
pip install fteproxy
```

## Quick Start

### Server

```bash
fteproxy --mode server --server_ip 0.0.0.0 --server_port 8080 --proxy_ip 127.0.0.1 --proxy_port 8081
```

### Client

```bash
fteproxy --mode client --client_ip 127.0.0.1 --client_port 8079 --server_ip <server-ip> --server_port 8080
```

## How It Works

```
[Application] <-> [fteproxy client] <--FTE encoded--> [fteproxy server] <-> [Destination]
```

fteproxy encodes traffic to match user-specified regular expressions, making it appear as allowed traffic (e.g., HTTP) to network filters.
