Hey r/selfhosted!
Living in a country with restrictive internet policies while trying to run my *arr stack has been… challenging. After getting frustrated with the usage complexity of existing VPN solutions, I decided to build something myself.
Meet GlueLESS - a Docker container that routes traffic through VLESS/Xray-XTLS protocol while maintaining gluetun’s interface patterns. It’s designed to drop right into your existing docker-compose setups without breaking a sweat. Well, at least for some basic use cases.
Why I built this:
- Needed something lightweight that wouldn’t eat my server resources
- Wanted seamless integration with qBittorrent/Sonarr/Radarr/Prowlarr without reconfiguring everything
- VLESS with XTLS Reality is incredibly effective at bypassing DPI
- Existing solutions felt unreliable for my use case
This is an MVP and definitely not production-ready yet! I’m sharing early because I think the concept could help others in similar situations. The project uses hiddify-core under the hood (shoutout to the hiddify team!). I’d appreciate some feedback or/and contribution :)
