Inspector

Traffic observability web UI for GOST tunnel/proxy nodes. Consumes records published by GOST nodes via Redis Pub/Sub and stores them in MongoDB for querying and live streaming.

Quick start

# Build
go build

# Run with config
./inspector -C inspector.yaml

# Open http://localhost:18000

Configuration

addr: :18000

API

Architecture

• Go backend — Gin HTTP server serving both API and embedded SPA
• React + TypeScript + Tailwind frontend — separate views for HTTP, WebSocket, TLS, and DNS traffic
• MongoDB — persistent record storage
• Redis Pub/Sub — live record streaming

The web UI is embedded into the Go binary via embed.FS — a single static binary with no external assets.
