component-proxy - An extensible proxy server for component

To run a proxy (defaults to port 35555)::

$ component proxy

To use during installation::

$ component install -r http://127.0.0.1:35555

Or, for convenience (this will spawn a proxy if it is not running)::

$ component proxy-install

By default the proxy will proxy and cache all requests to https://raw.github.com. It can also be configured with credentials so that private repositories can be accessed. In order to facilitate this, just run::

$ component proxy-github-login

To setup the github credentials as an oauth token.

Configuring component-proxy

Tuning component-proxy will allow you to do some very powerful things without changing your projects.

Using the local source of a component ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

This is very useful for testing.

Long cache expiration ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

This allows you to store the files of a particular component for long periods of time.
