Proxy All the Things!!
Motivations
Well, i faced a few situations where i need to create a reverse proxy on my interface to access another system which had no apis to query to. This is basically a well crafted wrapper that eases the creation of a reverse proxy, just asking for 2 options in order to achieve that.
Installation
npm install --save @playma256/proxy-all-the-things
yarn add -S @playma256/proxy-all-the-things
Usage
Instantiate a class passing all options to the constructor.
const Proxy = require('@playma256/proxy-all-the-things');
// pass options
const ProxyInstance = new Proxy({
baseUrl: "https://www.mytargetlocation.com",
internalPath: "/myServerRoot"
});
// ...
// attach to your router
// This url has to be the same as the one inserted at the internalPath option
app.all('/myServerRoot*', ProxyInstance.proxyHandler);Options
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
internalPath |
Path that the proxy is going to start in your server |
baseUrl |
Url of the website you are going to reverse proxy to |
