Cool project, I really like the new structured output - that will make parsing stuff much easier than with strace! Is the performance overhead of tracing the syscalls comparable to strace?

That's great, most people don't, so let them change their preferred browser as the DMA requires it.

Oh that is awesome! Yup this is exactly what it is doing, didn't see it before!

While both tools serve similar purposes, I think this one is a bit different as it provides a raw stream of any file in a torrent via HTTP, not "just" video :)

I'm sorry to hear that! Do you have some recommendations on how to change the docs? I've added a small TL;DR here: https://github.com/pojntfx/weron#usage

n2n is neat! It is super simple to self-host the signaler in STUN/TURN in the case of weron as well: https://github.com/pojntfx/weron#1-start-a-signaling-server-... and `coturn` is even vendored through the Debian

That is basically the usecase for weron, good luck ^^ Networks blocking anything but HTTP has been one of the reasons why I started writing this (train WLAN in Spain does it for example)

From my experience it works basically everywhere, but if it doesn't - just specify a TURN server on `--ice` and you'll be able to connect to a relay ^^ The ports/IP can actually change - I was traveling through Germany by tra

Hi! n2n was a huge inspiration for the project, in fact I wrote Go bindings for n2n before starting it: https://github.com/pojntfx/gon2n Weron also allows tunneling - just specify a TURN server on `--ice` and enable `-

It is more or less zero config! Since its P2P there is no VPN server per se, and connecting to a overlay network is a platform-independent one-liner: https://github.com/pojntfx/weron#usage . The signaling server is also

by pojntfx 4y ago
Oh the signaling server is but a simple ICE candidate/offer/answer relay :) The messages being sent there are encrypted using a PSK so that the signaling server can't access the ICE candidates etc.

Thanks ^^ Android/iOS is not _yet_ on the roadmap (although weron works on the latter if your phone is rooted, since TUN/TAP is available natively) but totally possible! Both systems provide a L3 VPN API, and since Gomobile can ge

Thanks! Its using the Pion library[1] which doesn't seem to be using a constant bitrate; that would definitely be an interesting addition though. Sending e.g. zeroes when its not transmitting packets/frames is totally doable, but

Thank you! From my experience if you can get say Zoom or Meet to work in the network you're trying to deploy weron in, you'll get weron working as well. And if the traversal still doesn't work - just specify a TURN server on

Thanks for your work on Pion! I really enjoyed working with it, even in other places (STFS[1], a file system for tape drives that I wrote in January, uses it to access remote servers behind NAT for example). NAT-PMP/PCP support would b

A HTTPS fallback is more or less what weron provides - if you want to block the "weron protocol", you either have to block access to the signaling service (which runs on 443, and its just WebSockets) or block the related protocols

You can use every part of it as a library! See https://github.com/pojntfx/weron#8-write-your-own-protocol-w... and https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/pojntfx/weron ^^

by pojntfx 4y ago
You could totally do that! See https://github.com/pojntfx/weron#8-write-your-own-protocol-w... , but I agree with saurik - if DTLS is secure enough for your usecase, that would just add overhead ...

Thanks for your feedback! Is there a publicly hosted STUN server that guarantees better privacy? I'd love to use it if there is an alternative. It is of course possible to use any other STUN/TURN server by changing the `--ice` fla
