peerfetch

 

Peer-to-peer HTTP over WebRTC. Implements an http client wrapper
(similar to HTML fetch) and a corresponding server side HTTP proxy
over WebRTC DataChannel. Allows direct secure access from a web
browser to edge devices (IoT or servers) hidden behind a firewall.

Highlights:

  * Excutes in safe application space (no sudo)
  * End to end encryption
  * No custom VPN setup needed
  * No cloud middleman for data tunneling
  * No dynamic DNS service required
  * No custom firewall rules required
  * Programming language agnostic. (Currently available in JavaScript
    and Python)

Hello World example

 

See this README for a step by step Hello World example.

How it works

 

For an in-depth technical discussion and project background, see this
blog post.

Hands-on Workshop

 

Here is the recording of a peerfetch workshop hosted by Python Austin
.

Use cases:

 

  * Direct user access from a web app to private home security camera
    without sharing footage with a cloud provider.
  * IoT device mesh with direct p2p communication.
  * Personal web apps can share data directly (files, notes, photos)
    only with the end user without exposing a public IP address.
  * Federated learning - ML models can train on local user data and
    share learned states directly with each other without a
    centralized model aggregation server.

  * Ambianic UI PWA
  * Ambianic Edge
