Portaller — now with support for Pandora, Spotify, Rdio, Netflix and Amazon Video on all devices

Hello.
/ > I want to tell you some interesting news about what is happening with Portaller is a small service to use Pandora, Spotify, Netflix and several services outside the United States.

In one line, if you have no time to go under the cat — except for Pandora and Spotify now supports Netflix and Amazon Video, the service works on all devices, including clients on Android (why this emphasis — see below) and it is possible to join on GitHub.



Project on GitHub
The main thing that happens to him in this difficult time — it works and is still free and outdoor. If you want something to help or just to "do this" — please join us.

How much traffic
When a service is only start, I, like many commentators were extremely sceptical about the capacity and inventory traffic on a Junior droplet DigitalOcean. Doubts were vain — all the currently supported services are able to transmit the content directly to the client using the proxy just to create/pay for an account, log in or transmit control commands. The total monthly amount of traffic in this use — in the region of 200GB.

What services are supported
At the start of the service could only work with Pandora and Spotify, and only in the browser or in apps on iOS. Right now there are five services — three audio (Pandora, Spotify, Rdio) and two video (Netflix and Amazon Video). More importantly, they all work on all platforms — browser, desktop clients, and TV with SmartTV, iOS and Android.

Some have difficulty
I specifically focused on the support platforms because of its trivial, especially for Android — suddenly you'll ever need. The fact that many apps on Android when working with SSL, use libraries without the support of the SNI (Server Name Indication) and thus do not transfer the domain name within the SSL session. Because of this simple proxying requests to the sniproxy/haproxy becomes impossible — the application behaves conventionally, as a naive girl, and they do about the dialogue:

Pandora: I came. Let's (waiting for something)
SNIproxy: — What to give? (does not understand what to give)

Pandora: I came. Come on (repeats the request and still waiting for something)
SNIproxy: — What to give? (still don't understand)

Pandora: — Well, okay, I'm leaving (breaks konekshen, shows the user an error message)

SNIproxy throws up his hands and writes the error to log.


Well, you understand. If the application uses SNI, then the first sentence of the picture is changing — it directly informs which domain wants to address and the difficulties with the proxying of these requests does not occur. The solution I found only one for each domain with which this application wants to work with SSL, you need to raise a separate IP, and to describe it in a separate zone in DNS. In this case, the proxy on this address will only work with one domain and application is, of course, satisfied.

singing
Finally I want to give you this link — http://portaller.com/setup. It tells how to configure DNS on different devices (in General no rocket science), but if you need to know how to access US-only Smart TV apps for Samsung TVs — it can be useful.

Come, use on health.

mSearch: search + filter for MODX Revolution

Изображение
Something blog MODX habré completely withered, we need to spice things up. I want to introduce you to your component, which has recently been almost completely rewritten and expanded. It's called mSearch and originally conceived as a simple site search with account of morphology of the Russian language. That is, you had a quick and easy solution for any site without installing Sphinx and other major systems. In the process gugleniya, I came across a interesting this task by phpMorphy . Full text search on a table with an index, with the generation of different word forms. The idea I liked, by my criteria it came up and I wrote my solution, basing this method. the mSearch This snippet and plugin. The snippet is looking for the plug-in index documents when saving. Installation, as usual, from the repository, in 4 clicks. At the same time, you will be prompted to download and install for phpMorphy dictionaries of the Russian language — do not give up.

Emulator data from GNSS receiver NMEA

Introduction I had the need to test an application that uses the GNSS data NMEA. was Due to the fact that worked on the project navigation of the aircraft, test the air expensive naturally on earth to drive a car with a GNSS receiver is not particularly convenient, that like sitting at the table to have a virtual parallel port data Protocol NMEA allegedly moving equipment. First, search for different software had to try and find something suitable, but most paid and control of the emulation data is not very convenient, although practically emulate all settings of the NMEA standard. But I needed something simple emulating coordinates, speed, in principle, nothing more was required quite convenient and logical control. So I had to write an app of this kind in C#. Fly_nmea NMEA ("National Marine Electronics Association") — the full name is "NMEA 0183" is a text communication Protocol, marine (typically navigation) equipment together. Data is transmit

The game Let's Twist: the Path into the unknown

earlier this year, a group of experienced developers worked on the game Studio, violating all canons of mobile development. Low influx of users (or rather his absolute lack of), lack advertising budgets and publisher support dismantled the team, and it was decided to take a risk and create something of their own, to prove to ourselves first that big budgets and famous is not the main success factor. In this article I, Arthur, founder and game designer of an indie team ArmNomads Games (consisting of three people), I want to share passed us by in the dangerous wilds of mobile gaming. From idea to final release. The main objective of the idea was the search for a particular publisher and the target audience. We knew that to do something universal is very difficult. Guided by the limited resources and time, it was decided to cooperate with the publisher Ketchapp, but at the same time, have escape routes. To this end, we attempted to combine the minimalistic gameplay and beau
