What's the problem 🤔

Hello,

PrivadoVPN developer here.

We now provide an official server list at:
https://privadovpn.com/apps/servers_export.json

The list is updated hourly and reflects the full set of active servers and locations.
The endpoint schema is stable and versioned.

Previously, the server list was not publicly exported, which may have led to missing servers or outdated locations in Gluetun.

Would it be possible to switch the PrivadoVPN provider implementation to use this official endpoint as the source of truth?

This should also resolve several related issues, such as:
#2118
#2657

Happy to assist if any adjustments are required on our side.

Thank you for your work.

Closed issues are NOT monitored, so commenting here is likely to be not seen.

Oh hell yeah! Done! I'll make sure to promote you around, finally a provider paying attention to Gluetun 🙏 👍 Not like protonvpn giving me hell to access their servers list... Thanks again!

One more question, do you support wireguard, amnezia-wireguard or openvpn tcp, or only openvpn udp at this time? Thanks!

[privado-lgtm]

Thank you, that was quick!

Answers:

1. OpenVPN - yes each server comes ready for both configurations: TCP and UDP, ports 1194/443/8080/8443. Scramble too. Happy to provide any extra information.
2. Wireguard - yes, fully supported, including optional static configurations which are created manually in the admin panel by customers. I've been running Wireguard Privado as custom configuration for a while, works great, but would love to get "proper" non-custom support please?

[qdm12]

Got it 👍
for wireguard what are the user-dependant fields (like PrivateKey, address)? what are the server-dependant fields (like PublicKey)? And what are constant fields (like PublicKey, address)? (note to self: comment to #2645)
Also, same ips as for openvpn, and what port? Always 51820 or something else?

EDIT:

• I'll have a look at scramble, not the first time I see it, but it looks complicated to build musl openvpn with scramble for alpine linux - will ask our overlord AI
• OpenVPN TCP allowed in 54b55c5
• OpenVPN additional optional ports specified in ed26957
