ngrok VS Gin

ngrok 1.0 - Original version of ngrok. No longer developed in favor of the commercial 2.0 version.

Thanks for the history. I maintain this list[0], and wasn't aware of OG localtunnel, likely because there's a somewhat newer and now more popular project with the same name[1]. You appear to be correct on timing. Here's the earliest commits on GitHub for each of the projects:

OG localtunnel (2010): https://github.com/progrium/localtunnel/tree/fb82920d9d3e538...

Other localtunnel (2012): https://github.com/localtunnel/localtunnel/tree/93d62b9dbb9f...

ngrok (2012): https://github.com/inconshreveable/ngrok/tree/8f4795ecac7f92...

I'll see that OG localtunnel gets added to the list for posterity.

ngrok

if you're worried about the line "ngrok captures and analyzes all traffic over the tunnel for later inspection and replay" in https://github.com/inconshreveable/ngrok, I'd say that's a valid concern but not for ssh if you make sure the client knows what the host key is and does not accept a different one

Looks like it's open source so it could be just a fork away https://github.com/inconshreveable/ngrok

To get a fix domain, we can deploy HTTP tunnel in our own server. ngrok also provides an open source version for server side deployment. But it is old 1.x version and not recommended to deploy at production with some serious reliability issues.

I ended up inspired by ngork structure here: https://github.com/inconshreveable/ngrok it doesn't really work well with go modules, since i will end up running project like this:

Maybe https://github.com/inconshreveable/ngrok/issues/408

In Go, inconshreveable/ngrok and coyove/goflyway is well known, especially ngrok is popular among developers as a SaaS service.

Now let’s define the functions that will be called whenever a request hits our API. All the functions will be referencing the context provided by the Gin web framework. Paste the following code below the sample slice we just added to api.go:

We will be using Gorilla Mux. As per their last update, they have a new group of maintainers, and their repos have shown activity to confirm that. The tutorial can be easily replicated in any other framework or library as well. So, while we will be using Gorilla Mux, you can try to replicate it in Gin or Fiber as well.

Now, let's dive into the fun part – creating our basic ToDo application using the powerful Gin framework. This section will walk you through the steps, breaking down the code into manageable snippets.

Thanks to the AWS Lambda Web Adapter, the application built as a (good old) REST/HTTP API using a familiar library (in this case, Gin.

Excellent Performance: Sponge is built on the gin framework, providing outstanding performance for web service development.

In this blog, we will delve into the fascinating realm of handling images in a Golang application, leveraging the power of the Gin framework for RESTful API development, MongoDB as a robust NoSQL database, and the mongo-driver library for seamless interaction with MongoDB. To store images efficiently, we'll explore the intricacies of GridFS, a specification within MongoDB for storing large files as separate chunks.

It uses Gin as the HTTP framework and PostgreSQL as the database with pgx as the driver and Squirrel as the query builder. It also utilizes Redis as the caching layer with go-redis as the client.

I have created an application with Go in Gin-Gonic. In my frontend (Nuxt3/TypeScript) I always get a CORS error:

We use Gin web framework https://gin-gonic.com for the routing, Gin provides a balance between performance, ease of use and extensibility making it a preferred choice for building and running web applications in Go.
