The ngrok Agent SDK for Python

The ngrok Agent SDK for Python

Website

Note: This is alpha-quality software. Interfaces are subject to change without warning.

ngrok is a globally distributed reverse proxy commonly used for quickly getting a public URL to a service running inside a private network, such as on your local laptop. The ngrok agent is usually deployed inside a private network and is used to communicate with the ngrok cloud service.

This is the ngrok agent in library form, suitable for integrating directly into Python applications. This allows you to quickly build ngrok into your application with no separate process to manage.

If you're looking for the previous agent downloader project, it's over here.

Installation

The published library is available on PyPI.

python -m pip install ngrok

ngrok-py officially supports Python 3.7+.

Quickstart

After you've installed the package, you'll need an Auth Token. Retrieve one on the Auth Token page of your ngrok dashboard

There are multiple examples in the /examples directory. A minimal use-case looks like the following:

async def create_tunnel():
  builder = NgrokSessionBuilder()
  session = await builder.authtoken_from_env().connect()
  tunnel = await session.http_endpoint().metadata("python tun meta").listen()
  print("tunnel: {}".format(tunnel.url()))

  res = await tunnel.forward_tcp("localhost:9000")

Platform Support

Pre-built binaries are provided on PyPI for the following platforms:

OS	i686	x64	aarch64	arm
Windows	✓	✓	*
MacOS		✓	✓
Linux		✓	✓	✓
Linux musl		✓	✓
FreeBSD		*

ngrok-py, and ngrok-rs which it depends on, are open source, so it may be possible to build them for other platforms.

• Windows-aarch64 will be supported after the next release of Ring.
• FreeBSD-x64 is built by the release process, but PyPI won't accept BSD flavors.

Dependencies

This project relies on PyO3, an excellent system to ease development and building of Rust plugins for Python.

Thank you to OpenIoTHub for handing over the ngrok name on PyPI.
