Tailscale Layer For AWS Lambda

The "why" behind this can be seen in the blog post that attempts to explain it with humor and aplomb.

To build:

make init
make tailscale
make upload
make publish

At the moment this deploys only to us-west-2 for testing purposes.

Usage Instructions

Generate an ephemeral key within your Tailscale account.

Note that this will expire six months after creation.

Assign that key as the value to a parameter named TS_KEY on the Lambda you wish to use with this layer.

There is now a SOCKS5 proxy listening on localhost:1055 that connects to your Tailscale network. Use it as you see fit.
