Once your container starts, taking to any device within your tailnet can be done by using the local SOCKS5 proxy. In the example below, we are using Ruby's socksify gem.
Tailscale makes networking easy. Like really easy. It shines in situations where private networks do not allow inbound connections. Tailscale can connect your devices and development environments for easy access to remote resources, or allow those remote systems to access your home or office network devices.
If you are curious to learn more about how Rails & Lambda work together, check out our Lamby project. The architecture of Lambda Containers works so well with Rails since our framework distills everything from HTTP, Jobs, Events, & WebSocket connections down to amazing CMD Docker contract. The architecture above at the proxy layer was easy to build and connect up to our single delegate function, Lamby.cmd. Shown below.
So far, everything is working great with our new LambdaCable gem. Eventually it will be a drop-in adapter for ActionCable and join the ranks of other popular alternatives like AnyCable. To bring the project to completion faster, I needed feedback loops that were much faster than deploying code to the cloud. I needed a development proxy! One where my Rails application would receive events from both Lambda's Function URLs and the WebSocket events from API Gateway. Illustrated below with a demo video.
