+Rename 'sniPassthrough' export to 'httpsPassthrough' for consistent naming and remove outdated forwarding example
+
+- Updated test files (test.forwarding.ts and test.forwarding.unit.ts) to reference 'httpsPassthrough' instead of the old alias 'sniPassthrough'
+- Modified ts/smartproxy/forwarding/index.ts to export 'httpsPassthrough' without the legacy alias
+- Removed ts/examples/forwarding-example.ts to clean up redundant example code
+
+## 2025-05-09 - 11.0.0 - BREAKING CHANGE(forwarding)
+Refactor unified forwarding API and remove redundant documentation. Removed docs/forwarding-system.md (its content is migrated into readme.md) and updated helper functions (e.g. replacing sniPassthrough with httpsPassthrough) to accept configuration objects. Legacy fields in domain configurations (allowedIPs, blockedIPs, useNetworkProxy, networkProxyPort, connectionTimeout) have been removed in favor of forwarding.security and advanced options. Tests and examples have been updated accordingly.
+
+- Removed docs/forwarding-system.md; forwarding system docs now reside in readme.md.
+- Updated helper functions (httpOnly, tlsTerminateToHttp, tlsTerminateToHttps, httpsPassthrough) to accept object parameters rather than individual arguments.
+- Removed legacy domain configuration properties, shifting IP filtering to the forwarding.security field.
+- Adjusted return types and API contracts for certificate provisioning and SNI handling in the unified forwarding system.
+- Updated tests and examples to align with the new configuration interface.
+
+## 2025-05-09 - 10.3.0 - feat(forwarding)
+Add unified forwarding system docs and tests; update build script and .gitignore
+
+- Added docs/forwarding-system.md documenting the new unified forwarding system architecture, configuration, and usage examples
+- Updated .gitignore to exclude .claude/ directory
+- Modified package.json build script from 'tsbuild --web --allowimplicitany' to 'tsbuild tsfolders --allowimplicitany'
+- Extended ts/index.ts export to include the forwarding module
+- Introduced new tests and unit tests for forwarding, network proxy, and certificate provisioning
+
+## 2025-05-05 - 10.2.0 - feat(CertificateManager)
+Implement on-demand certificate retrieval for missing SNI certificates. When no certificate is found for a TLS ClientHello, the system now automatically registers the domain with the Port80Handler to trigger ACME issuance and immediately falls back to using the default certificate to complete the handshake. Additionally, HTTP requests on port 80 for unrecognized domains now return a 503 indicating that certificate issuance is in progress.
+
+- In CertificateManager.handleSNI, if no certificate is cached, call port80Handler.addDomain to trigger on-demand provisioning.
+- Update Port80Handler.handleRequest to register unknown domains and return a 503 for ACME HTTP-01 challenge requests.
+- Emit observability events (e.g. certificateRequested) so dynamic certificate requests can be tracked.
+- Fallback to default SSL context to allow TLS handshake while certificate issuance is performed.
+- Update and extend unit and integration tests to verify the new on-demand certificate flow.
+
+## 2025-05-05 - 10.1.0 - feat(smartproxy)
+Implement fallback to NetworkProxy on missing SNI and rename certProvider to certProvisionFunction in CertProvisioner
+
+- When a TLS ClientHello is received without an SNI extension and allowSessionTicket is false, the code now attempts to forward the connection to NetworkProxy instead of immediately closing the connection with a TLS alert.
+- An error callback has been added to handle proxy forwarding failures; if forwarding fails or no NetworkProxy is available, the TLS unrecognized_name alert is sent and the connection is terminated.
+- Renamed all instances of 'certProvider' to 'certProvisionFunction' in the CertProvisioner implementation, updating the associated types and call sites.
+- Updated unit tests to simulate a ClientHello without SNI and to verify that with NetworkProxy enabled the connection is correctly forwarded.
+
+## 2025-05-05 - 10.0.12 - fix(port80handler)
+refactor ACME challenge handling to use dedicated Http01MemoryHandler, remove obsolete readme.plan.md, and update version to 10.0.12
+
+- Removed readme.plan.md planning document
+- Eliminated internal acmeHttp01Storage from Port80Handler
+- Instantiated and integrated Http01MemoryHandler as a class property for managing HTTP-01 challenges
+- Delegated ACME HTTP-01 challenge responses to smartAcmeHttp01Handler
+- Updated ts/00_commitinfo_data.ts version from 10.0.11 to 10.0.12
+- Adjusted certificate provisioning logic to properly handle wildcard domains and on-demand requests
+
+## 2025-05-05 - 10.0.12 - fix(port80handler)
+Remove obsolete readme.plan.md and refactor Port80Handler's ACME challenge handling to use a dedicated Http01MemoryHandler
+
+- Deleted readme.plan.md planning document which was no longer needed
+- Removed internal acmeHttp01Storage map from Port80Handler
+- Instantiated Http01MemoryHandler as a class property and provided it to SmartAcme for challenge handling
+- Delegated ACME HTTP-01 challenge responses to the new smartAcmeHttp01Handler instead of in-memory storage
+
+## 2025-05-05 - 10.0.11 - fix(dependencies)
+Bump @push.rocks/smartacme to ^7.2.5 and @tsclass/tsclass to ^9.2.0; update MemoryCertManager import to use plugins.smartacme.certmanagers.MemoryCertManager()
+
+- Updated @push.rocks/smartacme from ^7.2.4 to ^7.2.5
+- Updated @tsclass/tsclass from ^9.1.0 to ^9.2.0
+- Refactored MemoryCertManager instantiation to use the new import path
+
+## 2025-05-05 - 10.0.10 - fix(docs)
+Update README: rename certProviderFunction to certProvisionFunction in configuration options for consistency.
+
+- Replaced 'certProviderFunction' with 'certProvisionFunction' in the docs to reflect the updated API.
+- Ensured all references in the readme are consistent with the new naming convention.
+
+## 2025-05-05 - 10.0.9 - fix(documentation)
+Update documentation to use 'certProviderFunction' instead of 'certProvider' in SmartProxy settings.
+
+- Renamed 'certProvider' to 'certProviderFunction' in README examples and configuration options.
+- Ensured consistency in the configuration section of the documentation.
+
+## 2025-05-05 - 10.0.8 - fix(smartproxy)
+rename certProvider to certProvisionFunction in certificate provisioning interfaces and SmartProxy
+
+- In ts/smartproxy/classes.pp.interfaces.ts, renamed the optional property 'certProvider' to 'certProvisionFunction'.
+- In ts/smartproxy/classes.smartproxy.ts, updated references from this.settings.certProvider to this.settings.certProvisionFunction.
+

-# Project Simplification Plan
+# SmartProxy Fully Unified Configuration Plan (Updated)

-This document outlines a roadmap to simplify and refactor the SmartProxy & NetworkProxy codebase for better maintainability, reduced duplication, and clearer configuration.
+## Project Goal
+Redesign SmartProxy's configuration for a more elegant, unified, and comprehensible approach by:
+1. Creating a single, unified configuration model that covers both "where to listen" and "how to forward"
+2. Eliminating the confusion between domain configs and port forwarding
+3. Providing a clear, declarative API that makes the intent obvious
+4. Enhancing maintainability and extensibility for future features
+5. Completely removing legacy code to eliminate technical debt

-## Goals
- Eliminate duplicate code and shared types
- Unify certificate management flow across components
- Simplify configuration schemas and option handling
- Centralize plugin imports and module interfaces
- Strengthen type safety and linting
- Improve test coverage and CI integration
+## Current Issues

-## Plan
- [x] Extract all shared interfaces and types (e.g., certificate, proxy, domain configs) into a common `ts/common` module
- [x] Consolidate ACME/Port80Handler logic:
-  - [x] Merge standalone Port80Handler into a single certificate service
-  - [x] Remove duplicate ACME setup in SmartProxy and NetworkProxy
- [x] Unify configuration options:
-  - [x] Merge `INetworkProxyOptions.acme`, `IPort80HandlerOptions`, and `port80HandlerConfig` into one schema
-  - [x] Deprecate old option names and provide clear upgrade path
- [x] Centralize plugin imports in `ts/plugins.ts` and update all modules to use it
- [x] Remove legacy or unused code paths (e.g., old HTTP/2 fallback logic if obsolete)
- [ ] Enhance and expand test coverage:
-  - Add unit tests for certificate issuance, renewal, and error handling
-  - Add integration tests for HTTP challenge routing and request forwarding
- [ ] Update main README.md with architecture overview and configuration guide
- [ ] Review and prune external dependencies no longer needed
+The current approach has several issues:

-Once these steps are complete, the project will be cleaner, easier to understand, and simpler to extend.
+1. **Dual Configuration Systems**:
+   - Port configuration (`fromPort`, `toPort`, `globalPortRanges`) for "where to listen"
+   - Domain configuration (`domainConfigs`) for "how to forward"
+   - Unclear relationship between these two systems
+
+2. **Mixed Concerns**:
+   - Port management is mixed with forwarding logic
+   - Domain routing is separated from port listening
+   - Security settings defined in multiple places
+
+3. **Complex Logic**:
+   - PortRangeManager must coordinate with domain configuration
+   - Implicit rules for handling connections based on port and domain
+
+4. **Difficult to Understand and Configure**:
+   - Two separate configuration hierarchies that must work together
+   - Unclear which settings take precedence
+
+## Proposed Solution: Fully Unified Routing Configuration
+
+Replace both port and domain configuration with a single, unified configuration:
+
+```typescript
+// The core unified configuration interface
+interface IRouteConfig {
+  // What to match
+  match: {
+    // Listen on these ports (required)
+    ports: number | number[] | Array<{ from: number, to: number }>;
+    
+    // Optional domain patterns to match (default: all domains)
+    domains?: string | string[];
+    
+    // Advanced matching criteria
+    path?: string;           // Match specific paths
+    clientIp?: string[];     // Match specific client IPs
+    tlsVersion?: string[];   // Match specific TLS versions
+  };
+  
+  // What to do with matched traffic
+  action: {
+    // Basic routing
+    type: 'forward' | 'redirect' | 'block';
+    
+    // Target for forwarding
+    target?: {
+      host: string | string[];  // Support single host or round-robin
+      port: number;
+      preservePort?: boolean;   // Use incoming port as target port
+    };
+    
+    // TLS handling
+    tls?: {
+      mode: 'passthrough' | 'terminate' | 'terminate-and-reencrypt';
+      certificate?: 'auto' | {   // Auto = use ACME
+        key: string;
+        cert: string;
+      };
+    };
+

+
+## Revised Implementation Plan
+
+### Phase 1: Core Design & Interface Definition
+
+1. **Define New Core Interfaces**:
+   - Create `IRouteConfig` interface with `match` and `action` branches
+   - Define all sub-interfaces for matching and actions
+   - Create new `ISmartProxyOptions` to use `routes` array exclusively
+   - Define template variable system for dynamic values
+
+2. **Create Helper Functions**:
+   - `createRoute()` - Basic route creation with reasonable defaults
+   - `createHttpRoute()`, `createHttpsRoute()`, `createRedirect()` - Common scenarios
+   - `createLoadBalancer()` - For multi-target setups
+   - `mergeSecurity()`, `mergeDefaults()` - For combining configs
+
+3. **Design Router**:
+   - Decision tree for route matching algorithm
+   - Priority system for route ordering
+   - Optimized lookup strategy for fast routing
+
+### Phase 2: Core Implementation
+
+1. **Create RouteManager**:
+   - Build a new RouteManager to replace both PortRangeManager and DomainConfigManager
+   - Implement port and domain matching in one unified system
+   - Create efficient route lookup algorithms
+
+2. **Implement New ConnectionHandler**:
+   - Create a new ConnectionHandler built from scratch for routes
+   - Implement the routing logic with the new match/action pattern
+   - Support template processing for headers and other dynamic values
+
+3. **Implement New SmartProxy Core**:
+   - Create new SmartProxy implementation using routes exclusively
+   - Build network servers based on port specifications
+   - Manage TLS contexts and certificates
+
+### Phase 3: Legacy Code Removal
+
+1. **Identify Legacy Components**:
+   - Create an inventory of all files and components to be removed
+   - Document dependencies between legacy components
+   - Create a removal plan that minimizes disruption
+
+2. **Remove Legacy Components**:
+   - Remove PortRangeManager and related code
+   - Remove DomainConfigManager and related code
+   - Remove old ConnectionHandler implementation
+   - Remove other legacy components
+
+3. **Clean Interface Adaptations**:
+   - Remove all legacy interfaces and types
+   - Update type exports to only expose route-based interfaces
+   - Remove any adapter or backward compatibility code
+
+### Phase 4: Updated Documentation & Examples
+
+1. **Update Core Documentation**:
+   - Rewrite README.md with a focus on route-based configuration exclusively
+   - Create interface reference documentation
+   - Document all template variables
+
+2. **Create Example Library**:
+   - Common configuration patterns using the new API
+   - Complex use cases for advanced features
+   - Infrastructure-as-code examples
+
+3. **Add Validation Tools**:
+   - Configuration validator to check for issues
+   - Schema definitions for IDE autocomplete
+   - Runtime validation helpers
+
+### Phase 5: Testing
+
+1. **Unit Tests**:
+   - Test route matching logic
+   - Validate priority handling
+   - Test template processing
+
+2. **Integration Tests**:
+   - Verify full proxy flows with the new system
+   - Test complex routing scenarios
+   - Ensure all features work as expected
+
+3. **Performance Testing**:
+   - Benchmark routing performance
+   - Evaluate memory usage
+   - Test with large numbers of routes
+
+## Implementation Strategy
+
+### Code Organization
+
+1. **New Files**:
+   - `route-config.ts` - Core route interfaces
+   - `route-manager.ts` - Route matching and management
+   - `route-connection-handler.ts` - Connection handling with routes
+   - `route-smart-proxy.ts` - Main SmartProxy implementation
+   - `template-engine.ts` - For variable substitution
+
+2. **File Removal**:
+   - Remove `port-range-manager.ts`
+   - Remove `domain-config-manager.ts`
+   - Remove legacy interfaces and adapter code
+   - Remove backward compatibility shims
+
+### Transition Strategy
+
+1. **Breaking Change Approach**:
+   - This will be a major version update with breaking changes
+   - No backward compatibility will be maintained
+   - Clear migration documentation will guide users to the new API
+
+2. **Package Structure**:
+   - `@push.rocks/smartproxy` package will be updated to v14.0.0
+   - Legacy code fully removed, only route-based API exposed
+   - Support documentation provided for migration
+
+3. **Migration Documentation**:
+   - Provide a migration guide with examples
+   - Show equivalent route configurations for common legacy patterns
+   - Offer code transformation helpers for complex setups
+
+## Benefits of the Clean Approach
+
+1. **Reduced Complexity**:
+   - No overlapping or conflicting configuration systems
+   - No dual maintenance of backward compatibility code
+   - Simplified internal architecture
+
+2. **Cleaner Code Base**:
+   - Removal of technical debt
+   - Better separation of concerns
+   - More maintainable codebase
+
+3. **Better User Experience**:
+   - Consistent, predictable API
+   - No confusing overlapping options
+   - Clear documentation of one approach, not two
+
+4. **Future-Proof Design**:
+   - Easier to extend with new features
+   - Better performance without legacy overhead
+   - Cleaner foundation for future enhancements
+
+## Migration Support
+
+While we're removing backward compatibility from the codebase, we'll provide extensive migration support:
+
+1. **Migration Guide**:
+   - Detailed documentation on moving from legacy to route-based config
+   - Pattern-matching examples for all common use cases
+   - Troubleshooting guide for common migration issues
+
+2. **Conversion Tool**:
+   - Provide a standalone one-time conversion tool
+   - Takes legacy configuration and outputs route-based equivalents
+   - Will not be included in the main package to avoid bloat
+
+3. **Version Policy**:
+   - Maintain the legacy version (13.x) for security updates
+   - Make the route-based version a clear major version change (14.0.0)
+   - Clearly communicate the breaking changes
+
+## Timeline and Versioning
+
+1. **Development**:
+   - Develop route-based implementation in a separate branch
+   - Complete full test coverage of new implementation
+   - Ensure documentation is complete
+
+2. **Release**:
+   - Release as version 14.0.0
+   - Clearly mark as breaking change
+   - Provide migration guide at release time
+
+3. **Support**:
+   - Offer extended support for migration questions
+   - Consider maintaining security updates for v13.x for 6 months
+   - Focus active development on route-based version only

Philipp Kunz	0f356c9bbf	feat(CertificateManager): Implement on-demand certificate retrieval for missing SNI certificates. When no certificate is found for a TLS ClientHello, the system now automatically registers the domain with the Port80Handler to trigger ACME issuance and immediately falls back to using the default certificate to complete the handshake. Additionally, HTTP requests on port 80 for unrecognized domains now return a 503 indicating that certificate issuance is in progress.	2025-05-05 17:03:22 +00:00
