What it does?

It publishes mdns records for local services, and serves them using caddy with https.

Requirements:

• dns-sd binary (so this runs only on mac)
• caddy - https://caddyserver.com/

Example usage:

go run github.com/DeluxeOwl/localhttps@latest -ip 192.168.0.23 -config .localhttps.yaml

How it works

This is a go binary that does the following:

1. Goes over the config file (default .localhttps.yaml) and reads domain/address pairs (address is in the format ip:port)
   Example file

frontend.local: "127.0.0.1:5173"
backend.local: "127.0.0.1:8080"

2. Creates a Caddyfile

frontend.local {
    tls internal
    reverse_proxy 127.0.0.1:5173
}

backend.local {
    tls internal
    reverse_proxy 127.0.0.1:8080
}

3. Runs caddy with the generated Caddyfile
4. Runs dns-sd -P <domain> _http._tcp local 443 <domain> <ip>
