expose-localhost.nvim
Expose your localhost to the internet from inside Neovim (for the truly lazy among us)
This is a very tiny Neovim plugin that lets you expose a local port using either Cloudflared or Ngrok — without leaving Neovim.
Yes, you can already do this with a one-liner in your terminal. This plugin exists for people like me who prefer to run everything from within Neovim and can't be bothered to open another tab or terminal.
✨ Features
- Expose any local port via Cloudflare Tunnel or Ngrok
- Automatically copies the public URL to your clipboard
- Minimal API: just one function or one command
- Health check included
⚙ Requirements
- One of the following installed and available in
$PATH:cloudflaredngrok
📦 Installation
With lazy.nvim:
{
"azratul/expose-localhost.nvim",
}
With packer.nvim:
use {
"azratul/expose-localhost.nvim",
}
🚀 Usage
Command:
- Start exposing a local port, by default using Cloudflared:
:ExposeStart <port> [cloudflared|ngrok]
Examples:
:ExposeStart 3000
:ExposeStart 8080 ngrok
- Stop exposing the port:
:ExposeStop
Lua API:
require("expose-localhost").expose(3000, "cloudflared")
🩺 Health Check
You can verify everything is working with:
:lua require("expose-localhost").health()
Or with Neovim's built-in health check:
:checkhealth expose-localhost
