Documented steps

  1. Set your token: `export NGROK_AUTHTOKEN=<token>` (all SDKs read it from the environment)
  2. Python: `pip install ngrok`, then `import ngrok; fwd = ngrok.forward("localhost:8085", authtoken_from_env=True); print(fwd.url())`
  3. JavaScript: `npm install @ngrok/ngrok`, then `const fwd = await ngrok.forward({ addr: "localhost:8085", authtoken_from_env: true }); console.log(fwd.url())`
  4. Go: `go get golang.ngrok.com/ngrok/v2`, then `ngrok.Forward(ctx, ngrok.WithUpstream("http://localhost:8085"))` and read `fwd.URL()`
  5. Rust: `cargo add ngrok`, build a `Session` with `authtoken_from_env()`, then `http_endpoint().listen_and_forward(url)`
