Objective

Create a service to proxy service running locally to the public URL. It Should be fully functional and interactive.

The resulting command might look like this:

reverprox 3000 api

Features

• Ability to configure the remote server URL
• Build on QUIC protocol
• Supports only HTTP proxy
• Ability to specify the subdomain to use for the public URL

Assumptions

• We will use QUIC
• The service will be written in rust
• We might use the daemon that runs locally
• We might add ability to configure daemin using CLI

MVP

• Ability for client to start a Bidirectional connection to the QUIC server
• Accept HTTP requests from the server
• Forward reqeusts to the local server localhost:3000
• Wait for the response from the local server
• Send the response back to the QUIC server
• Server that accepts the QUIC connection from the Client
• Accepts HTTP Requests from the known public DNS api.reverprox.com
• When new Request comes in, it should be able to find the client that is connected to the server and forward the request to it
• Send the HTTP reqeust over QUIC
• Recieve the HTTP response from the client
• Send response back to the requester

Scope

• QUIC server that runs in the cloud
• QUIC client that runs locally
• Client configuration parsing
• Commands to initialize the connection and to configure client
• Client on initialization sends the init request to the server to establish the long-lasting connection
• Server needs to make regular Health checks to the client
• Server needs to support a list of clients (connections)
• Server needs to get the request from the client and send back the HTTP response to it

Server

• Ability to generate TLS certificate
• Store Connections
• Connection health checks
• Interface for receiving requests
• Interface for sending requests
• Deconding.Encoding I/O
• the HTTP interface
• Send/Filtrate HTTP requests to the QUIC server
• SECURITY ...

Client

• Send initialization request
• Long Lasting Bidirectional connections
• Parse the configuration
• Get the running local server details
• Ability to close the connection
• Filtrate the incomming messages
• CLI Interface
• Local Server health checks
• Ability to keep the connection in a suspended mode to then reopen it
• SECURITY ...
