Infrarust v1.2.0 - CLI, Bans & Docker Updates

🌟 Major New Features

🖥️ Interactive CLI

You can now manage your proxy directly from the command line! The new CLI includes:

• Real-time server and player management
• Rich formatting with colors for better readability
• Command history and tab completion
• Automatically adapts to terminal capabilities

Try commands like list, kick, configs, and more!

🔒 Ban System

A complete ban management system is now available:

> ban --username(-u) BadPlayer --duration 1d --reason "Griefing"

• Ban by IP, username, or UUID with custom durations
• Persistent storage with automatic expiration
• Detailed audit logs and ban management
• Commands: ban, unban, bans

🐳 Docker Integration

Infrarust now automatically discovers and configures Minecraft servers running in Docker:

• Add infrarust.enable=true label to your containers
• Dynamic reconfiguration when containers start/stop
• Custom routing based on container labels and ports
• Works with Docker Compose, Kubernetes, and standalone containers

🚀 Performance Improvements

Multi-threaded Connection Handling

I've redesigned how Infrarust handles connections:

• Multiple requests processed simultaneously
• Faster response times for server status queries
• Better resource utilization on multi-core systems

Enhanced Status Caching

• Intelligent caching reduces server load
• Request coalescing prevents thundering herd problems
• Customizable cache duration in configuration

🔧 Technical Improvements

Unified Component Architecture

• Cleaner internal design for better stability
• Enhanced error handling and recovery
• More robust shutdown sequence
• Reduced memory footprint

Better Error Messages

• Custom MOTDs when servers are unreachable
• Detailed logging for troubleshooting
• Graceful handling of network issues

🐛 Bug Fixes

• Reduced memory usage spikes during status request floods
• Improved connection tracking to prevent resource leaks
• More reliable proxy protocol handling

🔮 What's next?

Before starting a fresh refacto of the source code one feature is on my bucket list, the Lazy Server start that will give the abilities to start a server on a client login by executing a script or calling an API

And then a good refacto of the project to enable it to grow faster, have better maintainability etc...
