wsl-vpnkit VS µWebSockets

Mirrored network mode sounds quite a lot like what wsl-vpnkit does: https://github.com/sakai135/wsl-vpnkit

This came from Docker Desktop for Windows, where they needed a solution for VPNs like GlobalProtect and AnyConnect that are often configured to drop packets for networks that aren't the main one associated with the VPN.

I'm going to wait a while to see how the new VPN stuff works out. Previously WSL2 didn't work with a Windows VPN without an extra tool ( https://github.com/sakai135/wsl-vpnkit ), hopefully this might fix things, but not going to risk trying it in case it breaks everything.

https://github.com/sakai135/wsl-vpnkit fixes that problem for me, and is less annoying than other fixes I tried

So i installed warp on windows and try to run go mod init to access few packages from my org private repo, and it says the repo not found, So i search and found that WSL 2 need this for Zero Trust to run on WSL 2 : https://github.com/sakai135/wsl-vpnkit , I've download and started the service but it still can't access the repo, does anyone has this problem when developing go with zero trust ?

There's also a reference to https://github.com/sakai135/wsl-vpnkit, which looks like a much more ambitious effort to deal with this.

If it works at all like WSL, you might want to look at wsl-vpnkit.

It's not a proxy, but would give some idea how to shim into the middle.

there's a fix for that! https://github.com/sakai135/wsl-vpnkit

Have you tried wsl-vpnkit?

They use (uWebSockets)[https://github.com/uNetworking/uWebSockets], which was written in C++, but has an interface to use in NodeJS. It's been really performant for me in my simple tests compared to other popular websocket libs that slow down fairly quickly.

µWebSockets, pronounced as "microWebSocket”, is a WebSocket library written in C++ and has Node.js bindings. Its design focuses on being efficient and scalable, making it ideal for applications that require high concurrency and low latency.

You can do that with any single threaded library that leaves threading to you. Like for example https://github.com/uNetworking/uWebSockets

Websockets are also pretty valuable for updating the page in real time, there are servers in many languages. I'm a big fan of https://github.com/uNetworking/uWebSockets which is C++ but also has JS bindings to use with Node.js.

Can you include uWebsockets? https://github.com/uNetworking/uWebSockets

μWebSockets Génial, rapide, peut transformer l’eau en vin. Nécessite C++17.

Not exaclty -- it looks like it's pretty overkill for my needs

I'm looking for something more like websocketpp[0], or even just grpc without a requisite proxy. uWebsockets looks really promising, being header only, but in the fine print requires a runtime library. unfortunately, none of that ecosystem seems to use cmake, making integrating it that much more of a pain.

why use cpp for this, I'm sure some HNer will ask. the ray tracer itself is using cuda, that's why. I've also debated

- running it as a grpc server and having some proxy in a more web-accessible language

- creating python bindings and using python to make a websocket/http server for it

neither of those are out of the question, but they're not my first choices, because I'd like to keep the build & execution simple. introducing dependencies, especially other executables, is in conflict with that.

i don't need anything particularly scalable -- a threaded implementation, or one using select() would be fine, if not preferable.

Really cool i also made and CAPI for using WebSocket in C, https://github.com/uNetworking/uWebSockets/tree/master/capi

I will take a deep look on your project thanks for sharing!

We discover a really fast, small, and well maintained C++ Library called uNetworking/uWebSockets, but no C API available, so we create and adapt the full C API from uNetworking/uWebSockets and will integrate libuv powered fetch and file IO, this same C API is used by Bun
