Download 1.2.1 (for Windows, Linux, OS X and FreeBSD, ...)


PortFusion is a minimalistic, cross-platform, transport-layer distributed reverse / forward proxy and tunneling solution for TCP released under GPLv3.

A single package that makes the most of each platform by tapping into their unique capabilities, combining this power with an intuitive interface, beautiful design and Haskell's excellent support for unprecedented levels of concurrency and parallelism.

It strives for the smallest source code size while delivering maximum throughput with near-zero overhead.


Today, a growing number of companies and institutions around the world use PortFusion.


Use

PortFusion is a tiny command line application.

Distributed Reverse Proxy Mode Distributed Forward Proxy Mode

Work from home using remote desktop services circumventing corporate firewalls.

Connect to the internet through a http proxy via a gateway to a friend's intranet.

↓ home ↓
PortFusion                ] 2000      [
PortFusion 3389 localhost - 2000 home [ 3389
↑ work ↑
↓ friend ↓
PortFusion      ]        2000 [
PortFusion 3128 ] friend 2000 - server 3128
↑ you ↑

Connections to home:3389 will now be tunnelled and reach work:3389.

You only need to make home:2000 accessible from work.

Connections to you:3128 will now be tunnelled and reach server:3128.

Your friend only needs to make friend:2000 accessible.

Principles

Development follows simple principles:

  1. Be concise: PortFusion is a single-file with less than 500 lines of code
  2. Be relentless: refactor and prune constantly
  3. Be open: share everything
  4. Create fully documented reusable libraries that cover common needs
  5. Use the most permissive licenses possible
  6. Report bugs in external code and work on fixes
  7. Illustrate every concept in publication-worthy detail
  8. Be friendly: provide excellent support to users

Japanese Influence: ]-[ayabusa (はやぶさ) (Hayabusa)

I had already spent a great deal of time contemplating a nice and intuitive syntax and it was only when I watched the Japanese movie Hayabusa about the same-named space probe sent to extract and bring to Earth pieces from the asteroid Itokawa that everything just fell into place:

# command line  # source file

  ] [             :><:          # serve
  - [             :-<:          # reverse
  ] -             :>-:          # forward

# > and < are reserved characters at command line
# ] and [ are reserved characters in Haskell

PortFusion owes its design goals, ambitions and 1.0 release name ]-[ayabusa to the great Japanese culture and friends.

Family

We hope to grow a whole family of software-defined networking solutions reaching all network layers, technologies and devices.
