sclient.go
==========
Secure Client for exposing TLS (aka SSL) secured services as plain-text connections locally.
Also ideal for multiplexing a single port with multiple protocols using SNI.
Unwrap a TLS connection:
```bash
$ sclient whatever.com:443 localhost:3000
> [listening] whatever.com:443 <= localhost:3000
```
Connect via Telnet
```bash
$ telnet localhost 3000
```
Connect via netcat (nc)
```bash
$ nc localhost 3000
```
cURL
```bash
$ curl http://localhost:3000 -H 'Host: whatever.com'
```
A poor man's (or Windows user's) makeshift replacement for `openssl s_client` , `stunnel` , or `socat` .

### Build from source
For the moment you'll have to install go and compile `sclient` yourself:
* < https: // golang . org / doc / install # install >
```bash
git clone https://git.coolaj86.com/coolaj86/sclient.go.git
pushd sclient.go
go build -o dist/sclient sclient*.go
rsync -av dist/sclient /usr/local/bin/sclient
```
```bash
go run sclient*.go example.com:443 localhost:3000
```
Usage
=====
```bash
sclient [flags] < remote > < local >
```
* flags
* -k, --insecure ignore invalid TLS (SSL/HTTPS) certificates
* remote
* must have servername (i.e. example.com)
* port is optional (default is 443)
* local
* address is optional (default is localhost)
* must have port (i.e. 3000)
Examples
========
Bridge between `telebit.cloud` and local port `3000` .
```bash
sclient telebit.cloud 3000
```
Same as above, but more explicit
```bash
sclient telebit.cloud:443 localhost:3000
```
Ignore a bad TLS/SSL/HTTPS certificate and connect anyway.
```bash
sclient -k badtls.telebit.cloud:443 localhost:3000
```
Reading from stdin
```bash
sclient telebit.cloud:443 -
```
```bash
sclient telebit.cloud:443 - < /path/to/file
```
Piping
```bash
printf "GET / HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: telebit.cloud\r\n\r\n" | sclient telebit.cloud:443
```
