json-proxy Build Status

takes an http stream of json objects and resends them one by one to one or more destinations

Install

npm install -g jsonproxy
jsonproxy --port=8080 --targets."http://localhost:7171"=10 --targets."http://localhost:7272"=10

use programmatically

install locally:

npm install --save jsonproxy

expose using an http server:

var http = require('http')
var jsonProxy = require('jsonproxy');

// will clone the default config
var config = jsonProxy.config();

// override just what we want
config.targets['http://localhost:7171'] = 10;
config.targets['http://localhost:7272'] = 10;

var proxyServer = new jsonProxy.Server(config)

var httpServer = http.createServer(function(request, response) {

    proxyServer.accept(request, function(err) {
        if (err) {
            response.statusCode = 500
        }

        response.end();
    });

});

httpServer.listen(8282, function () {
    console.log('proxy ready at http://localhost:%s', 8282)
});

Config

create a file called .json-proxyrc in any of the locations specified here: RC module

{
	"port": 8181,
	"targets": {
		"http://localhost/": 10
	},
	"backoffAlgorithm": {
		"maxRetries": 10,
		"timeSlot": 1000
	}
}

file must pass json validation, such as jsonlint.com

port

the port used by the proxy to listen to incoming requests

targets

you can specify one or more targets here in the form of "url": "concurrency level". The proxy will try its best to send requests based on the concurrency level specified for each url. If the maximum concurrency level is reached for all urls the proxy will transmit backpressure to the incoming stream (hopefully :) )

backoffAlgorithm

In the event that an outgoing json request fails the proxy will attempt retries using an exponential backoff algorithm. Use maxRetries and timeSlot to control the algorithm behaviour. timeSlot is the basic unit which is used to calculate delays between attempts, it is not the exact delay used.

Contributing

Take care to maintain the existing coding style. Add unit tests for any new or changed functionality. Lint and test your code using Grunt. Run grunt watch while developing.
