Overview ¶
Package revdial implements a Dialer and Listener which work together to turn an accepted connection (for instance, a Hijacked HTTP request) into a Dialer which can then create net.Conns connecting back to the original dialer, which then gets a net.Listener accepting those conns.
This is basically a very minimal SOCKS5 client & server.
The motivation is that sometimes you want to run a server on a machine deep inside a NAT. Rather than connecting to the machine directly (which you can't, because of the NAT), you have the sequestered machine connect out to a public machine. Both sides then use revdial and the public machine can become a client for the NATed machine.

Types ¶
type Dialer ¶
type Dialer struct {
// contains filtered or unexported fields
}
The Dialer can create new connections.
func NewDialer ¶
func NewDialer(rw *bufio.ReadWriter, c io.Closer) *Dialer
NewDialer returns the side of the connection which will initiate new connections. This will typically be the side which did the HTTP Hijack. The io.Closer is what gets closed by the Close or by any errors. It will typically be the hijacked Conn.
type Listener ¶
type Listener struct {
// contains filtered or unexported fields
}
Listener is a net.Listener, returning new connections which arrive from a corresponding Dialer.
func NewListener ¶
func NewListener(rw *bufio.ReadWriter) *Listener
NewListener returns a new Listener, accepting connections which arrive from rw.
