proxi3

A command-line tool to start a proxy for your server, redirecting all traffic from localhost:3000/**/* to your-server.com/**/* for development purposes. Before request the server, request headers can be overrided by proxi3.config.json, after the server is requested, the response headers: Origin and Access-Control-Allow-Origin are restaured to original values, this trick prevent browser to fire the Allow-Control-Allow-Origin same origin policy error.

Install

npm install -g proxi3

Config

A proxi3.config.json can be created in root project and proxi3 will read de config and starts with this configuration.

• headers: Overrides the original request headers, to pass to server request.
• hooks: Overrides the original request, with custom response and status code.

proxi3.config.json example:

{
  "headers": {
    "host": false,
    "origin": "https://MY-ORIGIN/",
    "user-agent": "MY-USER-AGENT"
  },
  "hooks": [
    {
      "method": "post",
      "path": "/\\D{2}/user.*",
      "response": {
        "status": 500,
        "data": ""
      }
    }
  ]
}
