Should feel like an inet utility.\n2. Be simple and effective.\n3. Be performant and explicit.\n4. Run in the foreground.\n\n## Configuration\n\nConfiguration is line-based:\n\n```text\nlisten \u003clisten-proto\u003e \u003clisten-endpoint\u003e \u003cbackend-proto\u003e \u003cbackend-endpoint\u003e [options...]\n```\n\nExample routes:\n\n```sh\ntinyproxy \\\n    -L \"tcp :31232 tcp 127.0.0.1:41232\" \\\n    -L \"udp :31232 udp 127.0.0.1:41232\"\n```\n\nMinecraft Bedrock public-to-LAN proxy\n\nMakes a remote Minecraft Bedrock server appear as a LAN server.\n\n```sh\ntinyproxy \\\n    -L \"udp :19132 udp 123.123.123.123:19132 broadcast_reply=listen\"\n```\n\nRun with config file:\n\n```sh\ntinyproxy -c tinyproxy.conf\n```\n\ncheck example/tinyproxy.conf or use `man 5 tinyproxy` after `make install-man` for details\n\n## Non-goals\n\n- TLS termination\n- HTTP routing\n- retries\n- load balancing\n- service discovery\n- QUIC awareness (just forward 443 udp)\n- full HAProxy compatibility\n\nUse HAProxy, Envoy, nginx, Cilium, or a real load balancer if you need those.\n\n## Development status\n\nBefore releasing v1.0.0\n\nI'm testing this in prod right now. This might take a long time since I'm one person.\n\nIf you found this useful and want to help please do. I really need some help on writing the man pages.\n\n### TODO\n\nThese are features that would be nice to have, but I don't need them in my Kubernetes environment.\n\n- Config auto-reload\n  - Resolution: just restart it.\n  - This ensures a cleaner state. Reloading configuration is hard to handle properly.\n\n- Health checks\n  - Resolution: let Kubernetes handle them.\n\n- Domain support\n  - Resolution: use an external tool to rewrite the config and restart the proxy.\n  - For my setup, I would use initContainers for this.\n  - In general, when something requires hostname resolution, I usually end up using a full-featured server instead, such as HAProxy or nginx.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Ftgckpg%2Ftinyproxy","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Ftgckpg%2Ftinyproxy","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Ftgckpg%2Ftinyproxy/lists"}
