This is a stripped down clone of ngrok for setting up reverse tunnels to local environments.
go install github.com/andrewstucki/light@latestAn example docker-compose manifest is in the deployment directory.
The simple way I currently run this is to get a $5 DigitalOcean droplet, toss a .env file onto the host with my desired HOST, EMAIL, and TOKEN values, and then run via docker-compose up -d.
You'll need to create two DNS records for this to work properly, a wildcard for all subdomains of your chosen HOST and a record for the bare domain, both pointing to the public IP of the droplet.
Drop a config file at ~/.light.toml with your HOST and TOKEN values like:
server="https://proxy.my.domain"
token="some-token-here"You should then be able to test everything out (assuming the domain proxy.my.domain):
In one terminal:
light -p 8082 -i test -- python3 -m http.server 8082And in another:
curl https://test.proxy.my.domain
