vhost-router

Virtual Hosts Router

The purpose of this module is to provide a very easy to setup proxy router for when you have multiple different projects with different domain names running on the same server. It is based on bouncy, but aims to simplify a couple of things.

Setup

Include the module and instantiate a new instance of it via:

const Router = require('vhost-router')

let router = new Router({
	forceHttps: true,
	defaultKey: '/path/to/default.key',
	defaultCert: '/path/to/default.cert'
})

Where defaultKey and defaultCert should point to a standard SSL certificate of yours. Since this certificate won't actually be used, and is just there to statisfy the requirements to instantiate a node https server, the module comes with a default certificate already packed. When omitted, the packed one is used.

Routing

To route a request for a specific domain to a local running port, call:

router.proxy('domain1.com', 'localhost:3000')

For redirecting based on domain, call:

router.redirect('www.domain1.com', 'domain.com')

Securing

To actually apply a valid SSL certificate to a routed domain, call:

router.cert('domain1.com', 'domain1/privkey.pem', 'domain1/fullchain.pem')

Finally

Call

router.listen()

to have the router listen to port 80 for http, and port 443 for https. Incase you want it to listen to other ports call

router.listen(81, 444)
