Modifying the Pow web server to support nip.io in addition to xip.io
Raw
pow_nip_io.md

The xip.io DNS servers are proving to be troublesome for both latency and reliability. In researching solutions, I found the nip.io DNS servers to be much more reliable.

This modification to add nip.io support is for version 0.5.0 of Pow.

Go to line 78 of the file ~/Library/Application\ Support/Pow/Current/lib/configuration.js:

this.allDomains.push(/\d+\.\d+\.\d+\.\d+\.xip\.io$/, /[0-9a-z]{1,7}\.xip\.io$/);

Duplicate that line and change xip to nip in the new line:

this.allDomains.push(/\d+\.\d+\.\d+\.\d+\.nip\.io$/, /[0-9a-z]{1,7}\.nip\.io$/);

Restart Pow.
