# Luzifer / expose
`expose` is a small CLI utility to control a running [ngrok 2](https://ngrok.com/) daemon.
## Use cases
- Quickly open a local port to demonstrate something to someone
```bash
# expose create 4000
Created tunnel to address "localhost:4000" with URL https://8d35e4bf.eu.ngrok.io
```
- Close that port again
```bash
# expose delete 4000
Successfully closed tunnel "expose_4000" to address "localhost:4000".
```
- Quickly share a folder with files through HTTP
```bash
# expose serve
Created HTTP server for this directory with URL https://81e668af.eu.ngrok.io
Press Ctrl+C to stop server and tunnel
```
- List the active tunnels in a nice table
```bash
# expose list
NAME | TYPE | ADDRESS | PUBLIC URL
+-------------+-------+----------------+------------------------------+
expose_3000 | https | localhost:3000 | https://9c8d36d6.eu.ngrok.io
```
## How to set up
- Download the latest release of [ngrok 2](https://ngrok.com/)
- Configure ngrok (see the official documentation for that!)
- For this to work you only need an `authtoken` set in `~/.ngrok2/ngrok.yml`
- Set it up to start automatically (see `docs/ngrok.service` for a systemd service file)
- Download the [latest release](https://github.com/Luzifer/expose/releases/latest) of this tool
