This example uses Typescript, NodeJS, Express and Ngrok to accept post requests from external resources that require a valid IP Address or domain. Ngrok forwards your localhost addresses to an accessible IP Address.
From Ngrok:
Instantly create a public HTTPS url for a website running locally on your development machine. ngrok offloads TLS so you don't have to worry about your configuration.
- Install Ngrok by visiting their website https://ngrok.com/
- Download and save the ngrok.exe cli tool somewhere memorable on your PC.
- Copy the Path that points to ngrok.exe and save it under your systems PATH variable.
- Run "ngrok" in the terminal to make sure it's locatable
- Setup your express server on port 3000
- Run ngrok with commands pointing to your express server's port (Does not need to be 3000)
