A CLI tool to expose WSL ports to the LAN
Project description
wsl-expose
A convenient CLI tool to expose Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) ports to the Local Area Network (LAN) by automatically configuring Windows netsh portproxy and Firewall rules.
Installation
Ensure you are in the project root directory where pyproject.toml is located, then run:
uv tool install .
Usage
Note: You must run this command from an Administrator terminal (e.g., PowerShell as Administrator) to add or remove ports, because Windows netsh and firewall configurations require elevated privileges.
Expose a Port
To expose a port (e.g., 8080) running inside your WSL instance to your Windows host's LAN IP:
wsl-expose add 8080
Remove an Exposed Port
To remove the port mapping and firewall rule:
wsl-expose remove 8080
