# @serve.zone/remoteingress
|
|
|
|
Provides a service for creating private tunnels and reaching private clusters from the outside as part of the @serve.zone stack.
|
|
|
|
## Install
|
|
|
|
To install `@serve.zone/remoteingress`, run the following command in your terminal:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
npm install @serve.zone/remoteingress
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This command will download and install the remoteingress package and its dependencies into your project.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
`@serve.zone/remoteingress` is designed to facilitate the creation of secure private tunnels and enable access to private clusters from external sources, offering an integral part of the @serve.zone stack infrastructure. Below, we illustrate how to employ this package within your project, leveraging TypeScript and ESM syntax for modern, type-safe, and modular code.
|
|
|
|
### Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
Ensure that you have Node.js and TypeScript installed in your environment. Your project should be set up with TypeScript support, and you might want to familiarize yourself with basic networking concepts and TLS/SSL for secure communication.
|
|
|
|
### Importing and Initializing Connectors
|
|
|
|
`@serve.zone/remoteingress` offers two primary components: `ConnectorPublic` and `ConnectorPrivate`. Here's how to use them:
|
|
|
|
#### Setup ConnectorPublic
|
|
|
|
`ConnectorPublic` acts as a gateway, accepting incoming tunnel connections from `ConnectorPrivate` instances and facilitating secure communication between the internet and your private network.
|
|
|
|
```typescript
|
|
import { ConnectorPublic } from '@serve.zone/remoteingress';
|
|
|
|
// Initialize ConnectorPublic
|
|
const publicConnector = new ConnectorPublic({
|
|
tlsOptions: {
|
|
key: fs.readFileSync("<path-to-your-tls/key.pem>"),
|
|
cert: fs.readFileSync("<path-to-your-cert/cert.pem>"),
|
|
// Consider including 'ca' and 'passphrase' if required for your setup
|
|
},
|
|
listenPort: 443 // Example listen port; adjust based on your needs
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Setup ConnectorPrivate
|
|
|
|
`ConnectorPrivate` establishes a secure tunnel to `ConnectorPublic`, effectively bridging your internal services with the external point of access.
|
|
|
|
```typescript
|
|
import { ConnectorPrivate } from '@serve.zone/remoteingress';
|
|
|
|
// Initialize ConnectorPrivate pointing to your ConnectorPublic instance
|
|
const privateConnector = new ConnectorPrivate({
|
|
publicHost: 'your.public.domain.tld',
|
|
publicPort: 443, // Ensure this matches the listening port of ConnectorPublic
|
|
tlsOptions: {
|
|
// You might want to specify TLS options here, similar to ConnectorPublic
|
|
}
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Secure Communication
|
|
|
|
It's imperative to ensure that the communication between `ConnectorPublic` and `ConnectorPrivate` is secure:
|
|
|
|
- Always use valid TLS certificates.
|
|
- Prefer using certificates issued by recognized Certificate Authorities (CA).
|
|
- Optionally, configure mutual TLS (mTLS) by requiring client certificates for an added layer of security.
|
|
|
|
### Advanced Usage
|
|
|
|
Both connectors can be finely tuned:
|
|
|
|
- **Logging and Monitoring:** Integrate with your existing logging and monitoring systems to keep tabs on tunnel activity, performance metrics, and potential security anomalies.
|
|
|
|
- **Custom Handlers:** Implement custom traffic handling logic for specialized routing, filtering, or protocol-specific processing.
|
|
|
|
- **Automation:** Automate the deployment and scaling of both `ConnectorPublic` and `ConnectorPrivate` instances using infrastructure-as-code (IAC) tools and practices, ensuring that your tunneling infrastructure can dynamically adapt to the ever-changing needs of your services.
|
|
|
|
### Example Scenarios
|
|
|
|
1. **Securing Application APIs:** Use `@serve.zone/remoteingress` to expose private APIs to your frontend deployed on a public cloud, ensuring that only your infrastructure can access these endpoints.
|
|
|
|
2. **Remote Database Access:** Securely access databases within a private VPC from your local development machine without opening direct access to the internet.
|
|
|
|
3. **Service Mesh Integration:** Integrate `@serve.zone/remoteingress` as part of a service mesh setup to securely connect services across multiple clusters with robust identity and encryption at the tunnel level.
|
|
|
|
For detailed documentation, API references, and additional use cases, please refer to the inline documentation and source code within the package. Always prioritize security and robustness when dealing with network ingress to protect your infrastructure and data from unauthorized access and threats.
