proxycache
A simple, configurable, Redis-powered caching proxy.
Use it when you want to
- deliver a URL to a static file
- cache the file somewhere
- provide a URL to the cached version for subsequent requests
Install
$ npm install --save proxycacheExample
const express = require('express')
const request = require('request')
const proxycache = require('proxycache')
// Create Redis/Cloud Storage proxycache client
const config = {
store: {
client: 'redis',
connection: {}
},
cache: {
client: 'gcloud',
connection: {
keyFilename: './gcloud-key.json',
projectId: 'my-project-id'
},
options: {
bucket: 'images'
}
}
}
let cache
proxycache(config).then(client => {
cache = client
})

const imgsrv = express()
imgsrv.get('/images/:id', (req, res) => {
const id = req.params.id
request.get(`http://www.fillmurray.com/g/${id}/${id}`).pipe(res)
})
imgsrv.listen(3888)
