wol-redirect-proxy 1.0.1

A simple python Wake-on-LAN proxy

Wake-on-LAN redirect proxy

Brutally simple, single file, Fast API based proxy service. Create a simple path and/or hostname based redirects that send WoL packets if target URL is not reachable. Only works for HTTP(S) redirects.

Great complement for a simple auto-suspend setup, e.g. your home jellyfin server or any other HTTP service.

That's it!

Configuration

Specify a list of proxy mappings using a yaml config, e.g.:

#  This will WoL redirect any HTTP request and carry over the path.
#  e.g.: POST: http://my-proxy.home/login -> POST "http://my-jellyfin.home:8096/login"

targets:
- handler: "wol"
  source_url: "http://my-proxy.home/*"
  target_url: "http://my-jellyfin.home:8096"
  methods: [GET, POST, DELETE, PATCH]
  options:
    mac: "75:55:39:a4:33:27"
    timeout_s: 2

#  Multiple redirects to different services by hostname
#  (requires working DNS setup)
