Hello there everyone.
This is my first try at contributing to the OpenBSD ports tree:
https://liebender.dev/patches/openbsd-ports/wstunnel-port.tar.gz
wstunnel is useful in case you want to connect to your OpenBSD box,
given that
you are behind some firewall that restricts traffic to certain ports - for
example, you can configure wstunnel to listen on :443 and connect to
your box
via that port, to then route all your traffic to the wireguard interface of
your server. There are other usecases though, but this is my primary one.
Now, there are two patches included, even though wstunnel compiles on
OpenBSD
amd64 just fine. I had to apply these because the original Cargo.toml
references a github repository as a crate: fastwebsockets. In this case, the
developer of wstunnel made changes to the original crate which they did not
(yet?) upstream, and their fork does not include any tags for the Cargo.toml
to reference. This is why I am patching Cargo.toml to reference the original
crate and then apply the changes of the wstunnel developer on top. I edited
crates.inc manually in this case to add fastwebsockets-0.8.0. Is there a
better
way? `make modcargo-gen-crates` apparently only reads the unpatched,
original
Cargo.toml.
Anyway, I'm glad to receive any feedback or comments. Thanks.
- Christoph
