Share your local server with a secure public URL. Test webhooks, preview your work, and connect to local services without opening ports on your router.

Website · Documentation

Get started

Install the CLI, sign in, and expose your local app:

npm install -g outray
outray login
outray 3000

OutRay gives you a public HTTPS address that forwards requests to localhost:3000. WebSocket connections are supported too.

For TCP and UDP services:

outray tcp 5432
outray udp 25565

SDKs and integrations

Bring OutRay into your application or development workflow:

• Core — programmatic tunnel client and shared HTTP capture utilities.
• Observability — Node.js traces, logs and metrics, built on OpenTelemetry.
• Express, Hono, NestJS, Next.js and TanStack Start — framework integrations.
• Vite — integrate tunneling into your dev server.

The CLI also includes Secrets commands. See outray secrets --help for available workflows.

Repository

• apps/cli — the outray command.
• apps/tunnel — the HTTP, TCP, UDP and WebSocket tunnel edge.
• packages — SDKs, framework integrations and shared runtime utilities.
• plugins/outray — the OutRay MCP client plugin.

Development

Use Node.js >=22.19.0 and npm >=10. Install and build:

npm ci
npm run build
npm test

To develop the tunnel edge locally, copy .env.example to .env and configure Redis and an authenticated control-plane API before running npm run dev:tunnel.

Contributions are welcome. See CONTRIBUTING.md for development guidelines.
