mailbag VS traefik

I also maintain a fairly minimal, as far as options/alternatives go in this area, email list managing/sending (MailChimp alternative) app: https://github.com/ssddanbrown/mailbag

If anyone's looking for an open source alternative, I built a relatively feature-minimal Laravel-based option in this space when I wanted to migrate from Mailchimp: https://github.com/ssddanbrown/mailbag

Email list management/sending system - link

Personally, when recently built my own Laravel-based email-list-sending app, I just decided to stick to plaintext. I worked in email marketing automation for 7 years so did a lot of email building and handling work, and I didn't want to be doing that in my free time, so I kept things simple and plaintext only. Worked well for my audience since they're often tech/privacy focused. Source here if you wanted a peek.

MailBag - A simple email subscription app I threw together after getting fed-up with Mailchimp.

I created a Laravel-based mailing app as an alternative to Mailchimp for sending email notifications/updates for another OpenSource project of mine. Here it is: https://github.com/ssddanbrown/mailbag

apparently "traffic" https://github.com/traefik/traefik/issues/795

Pronounced "traffic", Traefik is a modern HTTP reverse proxy and load balancer aimed at making deploying microservices easier. It integrates with your existing infrastructure components such as Docker, Kubernetes, and others, and configures itself automatically and dynamically. The latest version adds lots of new options and enhancements such as adding healthcheck options, support for custom headers, and more. Read the migration guide on how to update to the latest version which is now required due to breaking changes.

> I think etcd is basically a k8s only project now

I hate etcd with the best of them, but etcd is used in a lot more places than just kubernetes:

https://github.com/traefik/traefik#:~:text=Etcd,

https://github.com/purpleidea/mgmt/tree/0.0.26/etcd (this one shows up on HN quite a bit)

It's actually one of the major reasons I wouldn't touch those projects

However, it's very unlikely that .NET developers will directly expose their Kestrel-based web apps to the internet. Typically, we use other popular web servers like Nginx, Traefik, and Caddy to act as a reverse-proxy in front of Kestrel for various reasons:

Not as good though. Case in point: https://github.com/traefik/traefik/issues/5472#issuecomment-... (that's just from this morning)

I'm speak objectively here. Of course, any built-in auto HTTPS that works (more or less) is better than none. Traefik uses an ACME library that was originally written for Caddy. After the original author left that project, Traefik team started maintaining it. Caddy's users' requirements exceeded what the library was capable of, but unfortunately there was friction in getting it to achieve our requirements. So I ended up writing a new ACME client library in Go and, together with upgrades in CertMagic (Caddy's auto-TLS lib), Caddy has the more flexible, robust, and capable auto-HTTPS functionality.

That is to say, not all auto-HTTPS functionalities are the same.

We'll use Traefik, an open source cloud native gateway that can plug into a Kubernetes cluster. It has the concept of "middleware" that can process API requests before passing them through to a backend. We can configuring a rate limit for all of our API endpoints by matching on the request path:

I did the same question here and here

Sadly there is currently no way of doing so. https://github.com/traefik/traefik/issues/6999
