Wormhole is a forward proxy without caching. You may use it for:
- Modifying requests to look like they are originated from the IP address that Wormhole is running on.
- Adding an authentication layer to the internet users in your organization.
- Logging internet activities to your syslog server.
- Python >= 3.6
- uvloop (optional)
$ docker pull bashell/wormhole
$ docker run -d -p 8800:8800 bashell/wormhole
- Create an empty directory on your docker host
- Create an authentication file that contains username and password in
this format
username:password
- Link that directory to the container via option
-v
and also run wormhole container with option-a /path/to/authentication_file
Example:
$ docker pull bashell/wormhole
$ mkdir -p /path/to/dir
$ echo "user1:password1" > /path/to/dir/wormhole.passwd
$ docker run -d -v /path/to/dir:/opt/wormhole \
-p 8800:8800 bashell/wormhole \
-a /opt/wormhole/wormhole.passwd
