Holesail is a truly peer-to-peer network tunneling and reverse proxy software that supports both TCP and UDP protocols.
Holesail lets you share any locally running application on a specific port with third parties securely and with a single command. No static IP or port forwarding required.
Before using Holesail, make sure you have Node.js installed on your system. You can download Node.js from the official website: https://nodejs.org/en/download/
Once Node.js is installed, you can install Holesail Server using npm (Node Package Manager):
npm i holesail -g
To start a local Holesail Server, use the following command:
holesail --live <port>
Replace port with the desired port number you want to expose to the network.
This will give you a connection string to connect to, use that to access this server from anywhere:
holesail <connection-string>
To view full usage instructions and all set of commands, run:
holesail --help
Holesail Server includes graceful goodbye functionality, which ensures that the server is properly shut down when you close the terminal or interrupt the process.
