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 |
