ngrok for Docker

Self-hosting ngrok service

Step by Step

• 1. Setup ENV & Create a data container:

  $ export NGROK_DATA=ngrok-data
  $ export DOMAIN=t.yulun.me
  $ export TUNNEL_ADDR=443
  $ docker run -v /data --name $NGROK_DATA busybox

• 2. Run init script from image:

  $ docker run --name ngrokd --rm --volumes-from $NGROK_DATA \
    -p 80:80 -p 4443:4443 -p 443:443 \
    -e HTTPS_ADDR=80 -e HTTPS_ADDR=4443 -e TUNNEL_ADDR=$TUNNEL_ADDR -e DOMAIN=$DOMAIN \
    zack/docker-ngrok

wait for a while...

  [01/27/15 16:26:05] [INFO] Listening for control and proxy connections on [::]:443

• 3. Get clients by arch

ARCH could be one of linux_amd64, linux_386, linux_arm, windows_386, windows_amd64

  $ docker run --name ngrokd --rm --volumes-from $NGROK_DATA \
    -e ARCH=linux_amd64 zack/docker-ngrok getclient >ngrok

• 4. On other machines (clients), Setup and Start

  $ echo "server_addr: $DOMAIN:$TUNNEL_ADDR\ntrust_host_root_certs: false" > `pwd`/ngrok.yml
  $ ./ngrok -config=`pwd`/ngrok.yml
