Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

npm version npm downloads bundle

A Full-Featured HTTP and WebSocket Proxy for Node.js forked from http-party/node-http-proxy.

This fork adds the following features:

  • Dependencies updates & security fixes.
  • Websocket close before response fixed.
  • Memory leak fixed when client closes prematurely.
  • Add support for Lookup option. Remove old followRedirects option.
  • Support for modifying content of websocket streams.
  • Respect NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED environment variable.
  • Fix for issues when using an Agent, fix the type error when req.socket is undefined.
  • Fixed bug when http:/ isn't replaced with: http://
  • Fixed X-Forwarded-* not capitalized.

Inspired by the project Ambassify project.

Usage

Install package:

# npm
npm install @squarecloud/http-proxy

# yarn
yarn add @squarecloud/http-proxy

# pnpm
pnpm install @squarecloud/http-proxy

# bun
bun install @squarecloud/http-proxy

Create proxy:

const { createServer } = require("node:http");
const { createProxyServer } = require("@squarecloud/http-proxy");

const proxy = createProxyServer({});
const target = "http://example.com"; /* address of your proxy server here */

const server = createServer(async (req, res) => {
  try {
    await proxy.web(req, res, { target });
  } catch (error) {
    console.error(error);
    res.statusCode = 500;
    res.end("Proxy error: " + error.toString());
  }
});

server.listen(80, () => console.log("Proxy is listening on http://localhost"));

Example with WebSocket:

const { createServer } = require("node:http");
const { createProxyServer } = require("@squarecloud/http-proxy");

const proxy = createProxyServer({ ws: true });
const target = "ws://example.com"; /* address of your proxy server here */

const server = createServer(async (req, res) => {
  /* ... */
});

server.on("upgrade", async (req, socket, head) => {
  try {
    // use proxy.ws() instead of proxy.web() for proxying WebSocket requests.
    await proxy.ws(req, socket, head, { target });
  } catch (error) {
    console.error(error);
    socket.end();
  }
});

server.listen(80, () => console.log("Proxy is listening on http://localhost"));

Some options:

// Options most used in the proxy configuration:
// * ws     : <true/false, if you want to proxy websockets>
// * xfwd   : <true/false, adds X-Forward headers>
// * secure : <true/false, verify SSL certificate>
// * prependPath: <true/false, Default: true - specify whether you want to prepend the target"s path to the proxy path>
// * ignorePath: <true/false, Default: false - specify whether you want to ignore the proxy path of the incoming request>
// * proxyTimeoutCustomError: true/false, default: false - specify whether you want to throw a custom `ETIMEDOUT` error when the `proxyTimeout` is reached. If false then the default `ECONNRESET` error will be thrown.
