Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

How to securely reverse-proxy ASP.NET Core web apps
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:
-
Deploying Web Apps with Caddy: A Beginner's Guide Caddy
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.

Security Workshop Part 1 - Put up a gate
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:
-
Install plugin in k8s cluster running in Kind
I did the same question here and here
- The Tailscale Universal Docker Mod
-
Set Default Config in traefik.toml and overwrite with specific container config
Sadly there is currently no way of doing so. https://github.com/traefik/traefik/issues/6999
- Istio moved to CNCF Graduation stage
-
Docker Services question
Traefik is another widely used system that has automatic configuration and offers support for more things like swarm/kubernetes/etc.

nginx alternatives
I have a webapp which I currently have deployed by running nginx in a container. Works as it should, however I am intersted in adding more observability to the webapp and found this reverse-proxy https://github.com/traefik/traefik which seems to expose some nice metrics which can be useful for observability.

Running an Arweave Gateway on GitHub Codespaces
After it finishes (it can take a few minutes), Docker-Compose automatically starts a cluster with two containers. One is an Envoy proxy (running on port 3000) that relays requests from outside the cluster to the other container (running on port 4000), which is our AR.IO gateway that will handle the requests.

Show HN: WebAssembly dev environment for Envoy Proxy
Hi HN!
For the past few weeks we've been working on Proximal - a workflow engine that lets you quickly iterate on WebAssembly extensions for Envoy Proxy[0] (or other proxies) right on your local machine: https://github.com/apoxy-dev/proximal
This work is based on Proxy-WASM[1] extension ABI for Envoy (and other proxies like APISIX and Mosn[2]) which allows you to execute WebAssembly code on every API request a la Cloudflare Workers. As part of our wider effort at https://apoxy.dev to improve API glue code we built an experimentation / development platform and hope you will find it useful!
On the technical side this project packs Envoy itself, Envoy controller, REST API (for controlling the controller =)), React SPA, and Temporal server/worker (for orchestration) - all baked into a single Go binary. You can find more on architecture and limitations in the repository README[4].
This project is pretty early stage and we would appreciate community feedback!

Show HN: Envoy Playground in the Browser
Hey HN,
We made an Envoy Proxy[0] playground so we could test out our Envoy configs directly in the browser. This is based on Julia's work with Nginx Playround[1] (we forked[2] that repo and added more Envoy to it). Check it out!
[0] - Envoy is a popular programmable proxy similar to Nginx or HAProxy that is popular with cloud-native setups: https://www.envoyproxy.io

Istio moved to CNCF Graduation stage
Envoy is the proxy that does the heavy lifting. Istio is just a glorified configuration system. Even if you choose to use Istio you're still using Envoy.
You're spot-on about using iptables rules. There is an example here with a yaml configuration and some iptables commands: https://github.com/envoyproxy/envoy/blob/main/configs/origin...
You might be able to re-use some of that. It should be pretty easy to get metrics for outbound/inbound http requests, but I don't remember the exact yaml incantation.

Need advice on K3s cluster setup
I'm using the default RaspiOS Lite 64bits and as highlighted in this issue, the RaspiOS kernel does not support CONFIG_ARM64_VA_BITS_48, which makes cilium-envoy to fail building. As solution, I was told to use either Ubuntu as base OS or Traefik Ingress Controller, which is not configured in K3s.

I'm looking for an SSO server/reverse proxy with features I'm not sure exist
I know envoy (https://www.envoyproxy.io/, https://www.envoyproxy.io/docs/envoy/latest/intro/arch_overview/security/jwt_authn_filter) can do this natively, I'm sure you could probably build something with nginx and its Lua scripting, not sure about traefik and caddy but I dont think they support that.
