gx

Remote execution via http. Scripts are base64 encoded and passed as the first element of the path. Obviously, be very careful. With great flexibility, you have to be Spiderman.

The main reason was for git deploys via webhook. Go made it possible to create a small (3.8MB) binary without any dependencies. Now, point a github repo at the host where you installed gx with a custom base64 encoded script

Install Options

Usage of ./gx:
  -host="localhost": Host for the server.

Adding SSL

Files are served through SSL, if a cert.pem and key.pem exist in the current working directory where gx is started.

To generate, use openssl

openssl req -x509 -nodes -days 365 -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout key.pem -out cert.pem
