Forward to Any Address

Not just localhost - forward to any device on your network.

Forward to LAN Devices

By default, Drip forwards to 127.0.0.1. Use -a to forward to any address:

Forward to another machine on your network:

bash

drip http 8080 -a 192.168.1.100

Expose a container by its IP address:

bash

drip http 3000 -a 172.17.0.2

Or use the container name (if DNS is configured):

bash

drip tcp 5432 -a db-container

Find container IP:

bash

docker inspect -f '{{range.NetworkSettings.Networks}}{{.IPAddress}}{{end}}' container_name

Bind to a specific network interface:

bash

drip http 3000 -a 10.0.0.5

Use .local hostnames for devices on your network:

bash

drip http 80 -a raspberrypi.local
drip tcp 22 -a mynas.local

Forward to LAN device with custom subdomain and background mode:

bash

drip http 8080 -a 192.168.1.100 -n mynas -d

Forward to Docker with IP restriction:

bash

drip tcp 5432 -a 172.17.0.2 --allow-ip 10.0.0.0/8
