Head of line blocking in TCP is a pain and ability to initiate streams from server without the need of any signalling or control streams is a nice to have to achieve low latency proxying.
Go build first.
Server
# run qxpose as server mode with the configured sub domain as poniesareaweso.me
# and the idle time out for QUIC sessions as an hour (default is 1/2 hour)
qxpose server --domain poniesareaweso.me -i 3600
# run qxpose as client mode with the following options
# 1. Tunnel server: to the locally running one
# 2. Local: Which local server/TCP address to proxy to public.
# 3. Idle Timeout: idle time out for QUIC sessions as an hour (default is 1/2 hour)
qxpose client --tunnel "localhost:2723" --local "localhost:8100" -i 3600
The client spits out a new hostname for the tunnel. (something like fb6b5b1749f59e70.poniesareaweso.me) For locally testing, edit the /etc/hosts to point the host to 127.0.0.1.
Something like this.
127.0.0.1 fb6b5b1749f59e70.poniesareaweso.me
Now try the address in the browser (insecure) or cURL (with -k flag).
