Migration

1.9.0

Unstable

This version is still under development, and the following migration guide may be changed in the future.

domain_suffix behavior update

For historical reasons, sing-box's domain_suffix rule matches literal prefixes instead of the same as other projects.

sing-box 1.9.0 modifies the behavior of domain_suffix: If the rule value is prefixed with ., the behavior is unchanged, otherwise it matches (domain|.+\.domain) instead.

process_path format update on Windows

The process_path rule of sing-box is inherited from Clash, the original code uses the local system's path format (e.g. \Device\HarddiskVolume1\folder\program.exe), but when the device has multiple disks, the HarddiskVolume serial number is not stable.

sing-box 1.9.0 make QueryFullProcessImageNameW output a Win32 path (such as C:\folder\program.exe), which will disrupt the existing process_path use cases in Windows.

1.8.0

Migrate cache file from Clash API to independent options

Tip

sing-box geoip commands can help you convert custom GeoIP into rule sets.

{
  "route": {
    "rules": [
      {
        "geoip": "private",
        "outbound": "direct"
      },
      {
        "geoip": "cn",
        "outbound": "direct"
      },
