IoT & Remote Devices
Access IoT dashboards, Raspberry Pi projects, or home servers from anywhere in the world.
Use Cases
- Access a Raspberry Pi web dashboard remotely
- Monitor IoT sensors from outside your home network
- Remote access to home automation systems
- Access security camera feeds while traveling
- Control home lab servers from anywhere
Raspberry Pi Example
1. Install ExposeHost on your Pi
git clone https://github.com/frost2k5/ExposeHost.git
cd ExposeHost
2. Run your service
Start any web server on your Pi. For example, a simple dashboard:
# Start a Python HTTP server
python -m http.server 8080
# Or start your Node-RED, Home Assistant, etc.
3. Start ExposeHost client
python client_cli.py tcp
Port to forward: 8080
Subdomain: my-pi
4. Access remotely
Your Pi is now accessible at https://my-pi.ExposeHost.me from anywhere.
Security Considerations
- Use strong authentication on exposed services
- Consider adding HTTP basic auth for web dashboards
- Regularly update your Pi and ExposeHost
