NetGet

Rete Adepto – Get it from the Net.

NetGet is inspired by the idea of creating the "right net" – a network tailored to your needs. It empowers you to get it from the net and build efficient, decentralized, and versatile networks.

NetGet is a modular open-source network creation suite designed to simplify the creation, management, and exposure of networks. It provides flexible tools for building efficient, decentralized, and adaptable systems.

Getting Started:

NetGet operates on two levels to suit different use cases:

1. Global Installation (Device Scope)

Global installation sets up NetGet at the device level, giving you access to its Command Line Interface (CLI) for managing network configurations and exposing the device to networks.

Key Features:

• HTTPS Servers: Create servers that listen on specific IPs and redirect traffic to internal processes.
• Port Management: Simplify port routing and allocations.
• SSL Certificate Management: Automate the handling of secure connections.

Installation:

npm install -g netget

Start NetGet Globally:

netget

---

2. Local Installation (Project Scope)

At the project level, NetGet offers tools and libraries that integrate processes into the NetGet ecosystem, enabling seamless interactions with the broader network.

Key Features:

• Install as a project dependency via npm.
• Import the library into your codebase for direct use.
• Simplify application connectivity to NetGet networks.

Installation:

npm install netget

Usage:

import netget from 'netget';

Understanding It's Parts

NetGet is modular, with each component serving a specific purpose. Here's a brief overview:

---

NetGetX

Simplifies traffic management by acting as a single entry point for all your services.

• Public Front: Routes incoming traffic to the right services.
• Easy Setup: Use one domain for NetGetX and point other domains and subdomains to it. Let NetGetX handle routing.
• SSL & Subdomain Management: Centrally manage certificates, subdomains, and wildcards.

Accessing NetGetX via the CLI

To use NetGetX, follow these steps:

1. Start the CLI Run the NetGet global command in your terminal:

   netget

2. Select NetGetX From the main menu, use the arrow keys to select NetGetX.

Example Use Case

Suppose you have the domain example.com, and you want to:

1. Route traffic from https://example.com to an internal API running on port 5000.
2. Add a subdomain like api.example.com to point to another service or Static Path.
3. Automatically manage SSL certificates for both the domain and subdomain.

With NetGetX, you can achieve all of this from a single interface, eliminating the need for manual configurations or external tools.

Port Management:

Port Management is a key feature of NetGet's global installation, providing tools to monitor and control ports on your device. It ensures that applications relying on specific ports run smoothly by helping you identify and resolve conflicts or issues with port usage.

Accessing Port Management

You can access Port Management through the NetGet CLI.

Run the following command in your terminal:

netget

Use the arrow keys to navigate and select Port Management from the menu.

Available Actions

• What's On Port? This option lets you check which processes are using a specific port. Enter the port number when prompted, and NetGet will display detailed information about the process, such as its ID (PID), name, and status.
• Kill Process On Port This option helps you terminate a process occupying a specific port. This is especially useful when a port is blocked or stuck due to a lingering or misbehaving process.

With Port Management, you gain total control over port configurations and network traffic, simplifying monitoring and connections.

---

Summary

NetGet works seamlessly at both the device level, managing networks and exposing processes globally, and at the project level, enabling individual applications to participate in the ecosystem. Whether you need to configure servers or integrate your app with the network, NetGet has you covered.

Whether you're an individual developer or managing enterprise-level networks, NetGet scales to meet your needs.
