Self host your life! How does it work? Spork is all about creating forward and reverse proxies between traditional sockets and p2p sockets. Sockets are identified by a public key and connect using a Distributed Hash Table (DHT). Connections are end-to-end encrypted using the NOISE framework. Demo Expose a server to the P2P network REVERSE PROXY POWER Let's say we have a web app running at localhost:8080: $ npx serve -p 8080 We can put this on the p2p network by calling spork bind: $ spork bind -p 8080 Created temporary keypair, public key: whattzzuu5drxwdwi6xbijjf7yt56l5adzht7j7kjvfped7amova ====================== Spork powers ACTIVATED - Mode: Reverse proxy - Listening on whattzzuu5drxwdwi6xbijjf7yt56l5adzht7j7kjvfped7amova - Proxying all traffic to localhost:8080 ====================== As long as that spork command is running, our web app will be available at whattzzuu5drxwdwi6xbijjf7yt56l5adzht7j7kjvfped7amova. Access a server on the P2P network FORWARD PROXY POWER Let's say somebody has sporked their web app onto the p2p net at the pubkey whattzzuu5drxwdwi6xbijjf7yt56l5adzht7j7kjvfped7amova. We can create a local proxy to that app using spork bind: $ spork bind whattzzuu5drxwdwi6xbijjf7yt56l5adzht7j7kjvfped7amova -p 5555 Created temporary keypair, public key: nhspq2iz4lclc6gnmh5yniyaevluz4t6dkdsg7w5sg546ea6ozeq ====================== Spork powers ACTIVATED - Mode: forward proxy - Listening on localhost:5555 - Proxying all traffic to whattzzuu5drxwdwi6xbijjf7yt56l5adzht7j7kjvfped7amova ====================== Now we can CURL to that web app using localhost:5555. $ curl localhost:5555 ... Note: That CURL connection is end-to-end encrypted! Create an HTTP gateway MEGA FORWARD PROXY POWER We can run an HTTP gateway to p2p sockets with the spork gateway command. $ spork gateway -p 6666 Created temporary keypair, public key: ukblfcctbbfif2vijw3s77w6hk5maaemc4x5hou2a7txgfp5u4pq ====================== Spork powers ACTIVATED - Mode: Gateway - Listening on localhost:6666 - Proxing by subdomain to p2p sockets ====================== Now we can access the whattzzuu5drxwdwi6xbijjf7yt56l5adzht7j7kjvfped7amova pubkey through our gateway by visiting http:// whattzzuu5drxwdwi6xbijjf7yt56l5adzht7j7kjvfped7amova.localhost:6666. We can curl to that address by setting the host header manually: $ curl localhost:6666 -H "Host: whattzzuu5drxwdwi6xbijjf7yt56l5adzht7j7kjvfped7amova.localhost" Github Repository Discord Server Spork is a part of the Atek Cloud mission to self-host our lives. We're channeling the deep magics of the Hypercore Protocol. Atek and Spork were built by the same people behind Beaker Browser.
