@push.rocks/smartproxy
A proxy for handling high workloads of proxying.
Install
To install @push.rocks/smartproxy
, run the following command in your project's root directory:
npm install @push.rocks/smartproxy --save
This will add @push.rocks/smartproxy
to your project's dependencies.
Usage
@push.rocks/smartproxy
is a versatile package for setting up and handling proxies with various capabilities such as SSL redirection, port proxying, and creating network proxies with complex routing rules. Below is a comprehensive guide on using its features.
Setting Up a Network Proxy
Create a network proxy to route incoming HTTPS requests to different local servers based on the hostname.
import { NetworkProxy } from '@push.rocks/smartproxy';
// Instantiate the NetworkProxy with desired options
const myNetworkProxy = new NetworkProxy({ port: 443 });
// Define your reverse proxy configurations
const proxyConfigs = [
{
destinationIp: '127.0.0.1',
destinationPort: '3000',
hostName: 'example.com',
privateKey: `-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----
PRIVATE_KEY_CONTENT
-----END PRIVATE KEY-----`,
publicKey: `-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
CERTIFICATE_CONTENT
-----END CERTIFICATE-----`,
},
// Add more reverse proxy configurations here
];
// Start the network proxy
await myNetworkProxy.start();
// Update proxy configurations dynamically
await myNetworkProxy.updateProxyConfigs(proxyConfigs);
// Optionally, add default headers to all responses
await myNetworkProxy.addDefaultHeaders({
'X-Powered-By': 'smartproxy',
});
Port Proxying
You can also set up a port proxy to forward traffic from one port to another, which is useful for dynamic port forwarding scenarios.
import { PortProxy } from '@push.rocks/smartproxy';
// Create a PortProxy to forward traffic from port 5000 to port 3000
const myPortProxy = new PortProxy(5000, 3000);
// Start the port proxy
await myPortProxy.start();
// To stop the port proxy, simply call
await myPortProxy.stop();
Enabling SSL Redirection
Easily redirect HTTP traffic to HTTPS using the SslRedirect
class. This is particularly useful when ensuring all traffic uses encryption.
import { SslRedirect } from '@push.rocks/smartproxy';
// Instantiate the SslRedirect on port 80 (HTTP)
const mySslRedirect = new SslRedirect(80);
// Start listening and redirecting to HTTPS
await mySslRedirect.start();
// To stop the redirection, use
await mySslRedirect.stop();
Advanced Usage
The package integrates seamlessly with TypeScript, allowing for advanced use cases, such as implementing custom routing logic, authentication mechanisms, and handling WebSocket connections through the network proxy.
For a more advanced setup involving WebSocket proxying and dynamic configuration reloading, refer to the network proxy example provided above. The WebSocket support demonstrates how seamless it is to work with real-time applications.
Remember, when dealing with certificates and private keys for HTTPS configurations, always secure your keys and store them appropriately.
@push.rocks/smartproxy
provides a solid foundation for handling high workloads and complex proxying requirements with ease, whether you're implementing SSL redirections, port forwarding, or extensive routing and WebSocket support in your network.
