CoffeeScript HTTP Proxy

Simple HTTP proxy server module.

The proxy module supports:

• Proxy HTTP and HTTPS protocols
• Proxying via proxy server
• Customize behavior for each request (deny, change proxy, change host/port etc.)
• Customize logging

This module just relay TCP connection according to HTTP Request. Modules are written in CoffeeScript. So proxy module itself (src/proxy.coffee) is small, about 120 lines.

Usage

In CoffeeScript,

proxy = require 'coffee-http-proxy'

server = proxy.createServer()

server.listen 8000, ->
  console.log 'Listening on port', 8000

In JavaScript,

var proxy = require('coffee-http-proxy');

var server = proxy.createServer();

server.listen(8000, function() {
  console.log('Listening on port', 8000);
});

To start proxy server,

proxy [--port 8000] [--proxy host:port] [--verbose]

For more detail, see src/simple-proxy.coffee.
