Host yo' self from your browser, your phone, your toaster.

I'd like to propose a Dockerized version of hostyoself so that the CLI version can be run via a docker run command.

I'll be happy to contribute a Dockerfile and push the Docker image to Docker Hub. Just say the word! :-)

I dropped a folder and the list of files served was correct but navigating to the charmingly named url returned a 404 response.

Worked perfectly for a single file from the same folder.

How does this work? Does all the traffic go through your server? If so, surely it will cost you a fortune in bandwidth charges if anyone seriously uses the idea.

Anyway, it's a cool demo.

Edit: forgot to mention that I'm running Firefox 67.0.4, 64 bit, on Windows 10.

You don't need MySQL, PHP, or Apache for a website. In fact I wouldn't use any one of those, especially not MySQL. Not to mention that 'dynamic DNS' is not needed if your IP only changes once in a millennium.

And port forwarding isn't hard, and isn't even needed if you get a cloud server with its own dedicated IP for like $5/mo from DigitalOcean or somewhere else. And right now Hosting24 is offering their highest tier of shared hosting for $4 a month, which includes SSH access, and sure yeah MySQL and PHP if you insist.

Shared access is no root access but VPSes aren't expensive :p

Hi Zack,

I use the hostyoself cli tool from time to time. I find it very useful.

The site seems unreachable or stalled at the moment.

Thanks

--sgt

p,s a network of hostyoself-capable sites would be great. the cli tool could could choose one site of the pool at random or whatever... just an idea :)

Hello,

When I using the relay option:

$ hostyoself relay
[info]	2019/10/13 11:44:41 listening on :8010
[info]	2019/10/13 11:44:41 127.0.0.1:60028 GET /ws 2.406ms
[info]	2019/10/13 11:44:49 [::1]:60031 GET / 1.123ms

The localhost the connection does not appear to be using SSL (https); I can only connect via (http). Is there some trick getting it to work via SSL?

~ Thank you

Hi again, Mark.

What is the inputKey field for?

(You can spawn multiple hosts with this key).

Ok, where do I put the input key? What does 'multiple hosts' mean here? Does that mean I can spawn up multiple copies of hostyoself that serve up the same files at the same address and are available via the same sharable URL?
