wsProxy

Build Status

This is a websocket to tcp proxy, written in node.js. It is dynamic and will proxy to various tcp servers.

Installation

npm install wsproxy -g

Usage

wsproxy [-p PORT] [-t THREADS (# of threads to spawn)] [-s ENABLE_SSL] [-k KEY_FILE] [-c CERT_FILE]
  • -p Port to bind wsProxy to
    • If no port is specified it will default to process.env.PORT or port 5999.
  • -a List of allowed servers to proxy to
    • By default wsProxy will proxy to any ip:port, this is a major risk, since malicous users may use your wsProxy server for illegal activity, or any other use other then connecting to your athena server.
    • The list of IP:PORT's should be separate by comma! Ex:
     wsproxy -a 127.0.0.1:6900,127.0.0.1:6121,127.0.0.1:5121
    • Note: Use the same IP's you configured your server address at ROConfig at roBrowser.
  • -t Number of cpu cores that wsProxy should use
  • -s Enable SSL
    • -k Path to ssl key file
    • -c Path to ssl cert file
  • Use wsproxy --help for a list of available commands.

Client usage

When connecting to this websocket you will give it an IP:PORT uri, for example:

ws://websocket.example.com:5999/127.0.0.1:6900
  • You can edit allowed.js to only allow proxy to certain IP:PORT
    • Note: if you pass in the -a or --allow option when starting the wsproxy this file will be ignored.
  • We will soon release a version, with better standards for this.

Writing modules for wsProxy guidelines

  • Simply require and extend current files from the /src folder, once done, require them on wsProxy /index.js.
  • BE CAREFUL, MODULES NEED TO BE LIGHTWEIGHT, LIMIT YOURSELF TO SIMPLE I/O OPERATIONS, DON'T BLOCK, AND CREATE LITTLE GARBAGE!
  • Don't forget that node.js is single threaded, cpu intensive blocks of code will block the entire proxy!
  • Don't create to much garbage, or the garbage collector will also block for extended periods of time, thus creating "lag" for the users.
