Will PetterssonIs there a standardised (or vaguely common) hostname akin to localhost that either a) only resolves to the IPv4 127.0.0.1, or only resolves to the IPv6 [::1]? In my experience, whether localhost resolves to an IPv4 or IPv6 address seems to be somewhat OS-dependent (or even system-dependent), I am wondering if there's a standard way to specify that I do want either the IPv4 version or the IPv6 version?Why, you ask? I have a service on localhost that only listens on IPv4, but today localhost resolved to [::1] and it broke. Now I fixed it easily by specifying 127.0.0.1 as the server address instead of localhost in the upstream proxy, but it did make me start wondering.<a href="https://toot.cat/tags/tcpip" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#tcpip</a> <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/ipv4" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ipv4</a> <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/ipv6" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ipv6</a> <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/localhost" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#localhost</a>

Alx 🐈Hello <a href="https://mastodon.design/tags/Fediverse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Fediverse</a> <a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/academicchatter" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@academicchatter</a> I need your help for a privacy-focused local-host (run offline from my computer) transcription software.

Aral Balkan@small-tech/https version 5.3.0 released• Uses Auto Encrypt 4.1.1 (removes OCSP stapling support because Let]s Encrypt has removed OCSP support).<a href="https://www.npmjs.com/package/@small-tech/https" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.npmjs.com/package/@small-tech/https</a>This module is a drop in replacement for Node HTTPS module that automatically handles TLS certificate provisioning and renewal both at localhost (via Auto Encrypt Localhost¹) and at hostname (via Auto Encrypt with Let’s Encrypt certificates²).So, this is how you create a HTTPS server in Node.js that uses this module and automatically handles TLS certificate provisioning and renewal for you both at localhost (during development) and at hostname (during production):```js import https from '@small-tech/https'const server = https.createServer((request, response) => { response.end('Hello, world!') })server.listen(443, () => { console.log(' 🎉 Server running at https://localhost.') }) ```(Yes, that’s it! I wrote a metric shit-tonne of meticulously-tested code so you don’t have to.) :)💡 Note that the localhost certificate support via Auto Encrypt Localhost is 100% JavaScript and does NOT rely on an external binary like mkcert or certutil.Needless to say, Kitten³ uses this module under the hood and it’s a big part of why Domain⁴ can deploy servers so easily that don’t require any day-to-day maintenance.In case you’re wondering why I’m spending so much time releasing all these modules, it’s because I believe in sharing every brick of the house I’m building so others can easily build different houses if they want to. I’m not saying that what I’m building with Kitten, Domain, and Place⁵ will be the end all be all of the Small Web⁶ (the peer-to-peer web). And I want others to be able to experiment by building their own tools without having to go through the grueling development process I’ve had to in the past six years to build basic infrastructure.Enjoy!💕¹ <a href="https://codeberg.org/small-tech/auto-encrypt-localhost" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://codeberg.org/small-tech/auto-encrypt-localhost</a> ² <a href="https://codeberg.org/small-tech/auto-encrypt" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://codeberg.org/small-tech/auto-encrypt</a> ³ <a href="https://kitten.small-web.org" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://kitten.small-web.org</a> ⁴ <a href="https://codeberg.org/domain/app" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://codeberg.org/domain/app</a> ⁵ <a href="https://codeberg.org/place/app" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://codeberg.org/place/app</a> ⁶ <a href="https://ar.al/2024/06/24/small-web-computer-science-colloquium-at-university-of-groningen/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://ar.al/2024/06/24/small-web-computer-science-colloquium-at-university-of-groningen/</a><a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/SmallWeb" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SmallWeb</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/SmallTech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SmallTech</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/AutoEncrypt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AutoEncrypt</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/LetsEncrypt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LetsEncrypt</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/localhost" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#localhost</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/TLS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TLS</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/SSL" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SSL</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/HTTPS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#HTTPS</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/Kitten" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Kitten</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/NodeJS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NodeJS</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/JavaScript" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#JavaScript</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/servers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#servers</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/web" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#web</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/dev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#dev</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/FOSS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FOSS</a>
