Run the node.js web app in Docker. It will need access out to a service on the host- similar to a persistent DB, but it needs to do the ip rule management, not just keep records on disk. Or maybe the service on the host that it talks to can be a real DB (ie Redis), and another process on the host watches the DB and makes the appropriate ip rule changes.

Possibly just run routesrules load. Consider replacing JSON file with sqlite DB just for fun.

So that I don't have to start it manually after a reboot.

For my own reference, here's what needs to be run at boot:

ip route add default via 10.8.0.5 dev tun0 table 100
rm /var/lib/misc/usaroutes.json
sudo -u www-data node /usr/local/share/routes/node/app.js

Probably should adapt the whole project to work on the basis of MAC addresses instead of IPv4 addresses. Then traffic can be sent to the numbered routing table from specific source MACs no matter its IP version. Continue mapping MAC addresses from /var/lib/misc/dnsmasq.leases to hostnames. Also consider looking up MAC vendor names to show somewhere.

Probably just use FPM
