Question: How to use https://github.com/flq367/reality to install a proxy program on a server?

Answer:

The repository flq367/reality provides a simple one-click installation script for setting up Reality (typically referring to the VLESS + XTLS-Reality protocol in Xray-core setups), which is commonly used to create censorship-resistant proxies.

Installation Steps

1. Connect to your server
   Use SSH to access your Linux server (Ubuntu/Debian, CentOS, or Alpine are common choices for such scripts).

2. Run the one-click installation command
   Execute this command as root (or use sudo):

   bash <(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/flq367/reality/main/r.sh)
   

   • This downloads and immediately runs the script r.sh.
   • The script usually handles:
     • Installing required dependencies
     • Downloading a pre-built Xray-core binary (with Reality support)
     • Generating keys and certificates
     • Creating a basic server configuration
     • Setting up systemd service (or equivalent) to run automatically
3. During installation
   The script is interactive in most similar Reality installers. You will likely be asked to:
   • Choose a port (default often 443)
   • Enter a domain name / SNI / serverName (for Reality camouflage)
   • Select a fallback destination website (e.g. www.microsoft.com:443)
   • Generate or input public/private keys for Reality
   • Choose whether to enable uTLS fingerprinting, etc.

   Follow the on-screen prompts carefully.

4. After installation finishes
   • The script typically shows:
     • Server configuration summary
     • VLESS Reality URL / share link (for clients like v2rayN, Nekobox, Hiddify, etc.)
     • Possibly login info if it installs a panel
   • Save the VLESS link immediately — it usually looks like:
     vless://uuid@your-server-ip:443?security=reality&...
5. Common locations after install
   • Config file: usually /usr/local/etc/xray/config.json or /etc/xray/config.json
   • Binary: /usr/local/bin/xray
   • Service: systemctl status xray (or similar name)
6. Test & manage
   • Check status: systemctl status xray (or the service name shown)
   • Restart: systemctl restart xray
   • View logs: journalctl -u xray -ef or check /var/log/xray/

Important Notes & Requirements

• Use a clean IP (not previously used for proxies) — Reality works best with uncontaminated IPs.
• Port 443 is strongly recommended (mimics HTTPS traffic).
• You usually need a domain pointing to your server IP for best results (but short domain Reality setups are possible).
• The script was last notably updated around early 2025 — verify it still works in 2026.
• If the script fails → try on a fresh Ubuntu 22.04 / 24.04 or Debian 12 server.

If the script doesn’t work or you want alternatives

Popular maintained options in 2026 include:

• Hiddify-Manager (panel + Reality support)
• 3X-UI panel
• AmneziaVPN self-hosted installer
• Various one-click Xray-Reality scripts (search “xray reality one key install 2026”)
