Customizing

You can edit configuration file for the ngrok at ~/.ngrok2/ngrok.yml. See for more details on documentation for ngrok.

How it works

1. vccw-share will launch a node based proxy server that waits request on port 5000. The source code of this proxy server is contained in this repository.
2. This proxy server will replace all URLs in the contents from WordPress.
3. launch a ngrok to share port 5000.

Known problems

• You can't visit wp-admin from ngrok's URL. You should edit wp-config.php. But I guess that if you upload media from ngrok's URL, the URL of the media will have incorrect URL.
