-
- ## TL;DR
-
- Proxy `/api` requests to `http://www.example.org`
-
- ```javascript
- var express = require('express')
- var proxy = require('http-proxy-middleware')
-
- var app = express()
-
- app.use('/api', proxy({ target: 'http://www.example.org', changeOrigin: true }))
- app.listen(3000)
-
- // http://localhost:3000/api/foo/bar -> http://www.example.org/api/foo/bar
- ```
-
- _All_ `http-proxy` [options](https://github.com/nodejitsu/node-http-proxy#options) can be used, along with some extra `http-proxy-middleware` [options](#options).
-
- :bulb: **Tip:** Set the option `changeOrigin` to `true` for [name-based virtual hosted sites](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_hosting#Name-based).

-
- ## Install
-
- ```javascript
- $ npm install --save-dev http-proxy-middleware
- ```
-
- ## Core concept
-
- Proxy middleware configuration.
-
- #### proxy([context,] config)
-
- ```javascript
- var proxy = require('http-proxy-middleware')
-
- var apiProxy = proxy('/api', { target: 'http://www.example.org' })
- // \____/ \_____________________________/
- // | |
- // context options
-
- // 'apiProxy' is now ready to be used as middleware in a server.
- ```
-
- - **context**: Determine which requests should be proxied to the target host.
- (more on [context matching](#context-matching))
- - **options.target**: target host to proxy to. _(protocol + host)_
-
- (full list of [`http-proxy-middleware` configuration options](#options))
-
- #### proxy(uri [, config])
-
- ```javascript
- // shorthand syntax for the example above:
- var apiProxy = proxy('http://www.example.org/api')
- ```
-
- More about the [shorthand configuration](#shorthand).
-
- ## Example
-
- An example with `express` server.
-
- ```javascript
- // include dependencies
- var express = require('express')
- var proxy = require('http-proxy-middleware')
-
- // proxy middleware options
- var options = {
- target: 'http://www.example.org', // target host
- changeOrigin: true, // needed for virtual hosted sites
- ws: true, // proxy websockets
- pathRewrite: {
- '^/api/old-path': '/api/new-path', // rewrite path
- '^/api/remove/path': '/path' // remove base path
- },
- router: {
- // when request.headers.host == 'dev.localhost:3000',
- // override target 'http://www.example.org' to 'http://localhost:8000'
- 'dev.localhost:3000': 'http://localhost:8000'
- }
- }
-
- // create the proxy (without context)
- var exampleProxy = proxy(options)
-
- // mount `exampleProxy` in web server
- var app = express()
- app.use('/api', exampleProxy)
- app.listen(3000)
- ```
-
- ## Context matching
-
- Providing an alternative way to decide which requests should be proxied; In case you are not able to use the server's [`path` parameter](http://expressjs.com/en/4x/api.html#app.use) to mount the proxy or when you need more flexibility.
-
- [RFC 3986 `path`](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3986#section-3.3) is used for context matching.
-
- ```
- foo://example.com:8042/over/there?name=ferret#nose
- \_/ \______________/\_________/ \_________/ \__/
- | | | | |
- scheme authority path query fragment
- ```
-
- - **path matching**
-
- - `proxy({...})` - matches any path, all requests will be proxied.
- - `proxy('/', {...})` - matches any path, all requests will be proxied.
- - `proxy('/api', {...})` - matches paths starting with `/api`
-
- - **multiple path matching**
-
- - `proxy(['/api', '/ajax', '/someotherpath'], {...})`
-
- - **wildcard path matching**
-
- For fine-grained control you can use wildcard matching. Glob pattern matching is done by _micromatch_. Visit [micromatch](https://www.npmjs.com/package/micromatch) or [glob](https://www.npmjs.com/package/glob) for more globbing examples.
-
- - `proxy('**', {...})` matches any path, all requests will be proxied.
- - `proxy('**/*.html', {...})` matches any path which ends with `.html`
- - `proxy('/*.html', {...})` matches paths directly under path-absolute
- - `proxy('/api/**/*.html', {...})` matches requests ending with `.html` in the path of `/api`
- - `proxy(['/api/**', '/ajax/**'], {...})` combine multiple patterns
- - `proxy(['/api/**', '!**/bad.json'], {...})` exclusion
-
- **Note**: In multiple path matching, you cannot use string paths and wildcard paths together.
-
- - **custom matching**
-
- For full control you can provide a custom function to determine which requests should be proxied or not.
-
- ```javascript
- /**
- * @return {Boolean}
- */
- var filter = function(pathname, req) {
- return pathname.match('^/api') && req.method === 'GET'
- }
-
- var apiProxy = proxy(filter, { target: 'http://www.example.org' })
- ```
-
- ## Options
-
- ### http-proxy-middleware options
-
- - **option.pathRewrite**: object/function, rewrite target's url path. Object-keys will be used as _RegExp_ to match paths.
-
- ```javascript
- // rewrite path
- pathRewrite: {'^/old/api' : '/new/api'}
-
- // remove path
- pathRewrite: {'^/remove/api' : ''}
-
- // add base path
- pathRewrite: {'^/' : '/basepath/'}
-
- // custom rewriting
- pathRewrite: function (path, req) { return path.replace('/api', '/base/api') }
- ```
-
- - **option.router**: object/function, re-target `option.target` for specific requests.
-
- ```javascript
- // Use `host` and/or `path` to match requests. First match will be used.
- // The order of the configuration matters.
- router: {
- 'integration.localhost:3000' : 'http://localhost:8001', // host only
- 'staging.localhost:3000' : 'http://localhost:8002', // host only
- 'localhost:3000/api' : 'http://localhost:8003', // host + path
- '/rest' : 'http://localhost:8004' // path only
- }
-
- // Custom router function
- router: function(req) {
- return 'http://localhost:8004';
- }
- ```
-
- - **option.logLevel**: string, ['debug', 'info', 'warn', 'error', 'silent']. Default: `'info'`
-
- - **option.logProvider**: function, modify or replace log provider. Default: `console`.
-
- ```javascript
- // simple replace
- function logProvider(provider) {
- // replace the default console log provider.
- return require('winston')
- }
- ```
-
- ```javascript
- // verbose replacement
- function logProvider(provider) {
- var logger = new (require('winston')).Logger()
-
- var myCustomProvider = {
- log: logger.log,
- debug: logger.debug,
- info: logger.info,
- warn: logger.warn,
- error: logger.error
- }
- return myCustomProvider
- }
- ```
-
- - (DEPRECATED) **option.proxyHost**: Use `option.changeOrigin = true` instead.
- - (DEPRECATED) **option.proxyTable**: Use `option.router` instead.
-
- ### http-proxy events
-
- Subscribe to [http-proxy events](https://github.com/nodejitsu/node-http-proxy#listening-for-proxy-events):
-
- - **option.onError**: function, subscribe to http-proxy's `error` event for custom error handling.
-
- ```javascript
- function onError(err, req, res) {
- res.writeHead(500, {
- 'Content-Type': 'text/plain'
- })
- res.end(
- 'Something went wrong. And we are reporting a custom error message.'
- )
- }
- ```
-
- - **option.onProxyRes**: function, subscribe to http-proxy's `proxyRes` event.
-
- ```javascript
- function onProxyRes(proxyRes, req, res) {
- proxyRes.headers['x-added'] = 'foobar' // add new header to response
- delete proxyRes.headers['x-removed'] // remove header from response
- }
- ```
-
- - **option.onProxyReq**: function, subscribe to http-proxy's `proxyReq` event.
-
- ```javascript
- function onProxyReq(proxyReq, req, res) {
- // add custom header to request
- proxyReq.setHeader('x-added', 'foobar')
- // or log the req
- }
- ```
-
- - **option.onProxyReqWs**: function, subscribe to http-proxy's `proxyReqWs` event.
-
- ```javascript
- function onProxyReqWs(proxyReq, req, socket, options, head) {
- // add custom header
- proxyReq.setHeader('X-Special-Proxy-Header', 'foobar')
- }
- ```
-
- - **option.onOpen**: function, subscribe to http-proxy's `open` event.
-
- ```javascript
- function onOpen(proxySocket) {
- // listen for messages coming FROM the target here
- proxySocket.on('data', hybiParseAndLogMessage)
- }
- ```
-
- - **option.onClose**: function, subscribe to http-proxy's `close` event.
- ```javascript
- function onClose(res, socket, head) {
- // view disconnected websocket connections
- console.log('Client disconnected')
- }
- ```
-
- ### http-proxy options
-
- The following options are provided by the underlying [http-proxy](https://github.com/nodejitsu/node-http-proxy#options) library.
-
- - **option.target**: url string to be parsed with the url module
- - **option.forward**: url string to be parsed with the url module
- - **option.agent**: object to be passed to http(s).request (see Node's [https agent](http://nodejs.org/api/https.html#https_class_https_agent) and [http agent](http://nodejs.org/api/http.html#http_class_http_agent) objects)
- - **option.ssl**: object to be passed to https.createServer()
- - **option.ws**: true/false: if you want to proxy websockets
- - **option.xfwd**: true/false, adds x-forward headers
- - **option.secure**: true/false, if you want to verify the SSL Certs
- - **option.toProxy**: true/false, passes the absolute URL as the `path` (useful for proxying to proxies)
- - **option.prependPath**: true/false, Default: true - specify whether you want to prepend the target's path to the proxy path
- - **option.ignorePath**: true/false, Default: false - specify whether you want to ignore the proxy path of the incoming request (note: you will have to append / manually if required).
- - **option.localAddress** : Local interface string to bind for outgoing connections
- - **option.changeOrigin**: true/false, Default: false - changes the origin of the host header to the target URL
- - **option.preserveHeaderKeyCase**: true/false, Default: false - specify whether you want to keep letter case of response header key
- - **option.auth** : Basic authentication i.e. 'user:password' to compute an Authorization header.
- - **option.hostRewrite**: rewrites the location hostname on (301/302/307/308) redirects.
- - **option.autoRewrite**: rewrites the location host/port on (301/302/307/308) redirects based on requested host/port. Default: false.
- - **option.protocolRewrite**: rewrites the location protocol on (301/302/307/308) redirects to 'http' or 'https'. Default: null.
- - **option.cookieDomainRewrite**: rewrites domain of `set-cookie` headers. Possible values:
- - `false` (default): disable cookie rewriting
- - String: new domain, for example `cookieDomainRewrite: "new.domain"`. To remove the domain, use `cookieDomainRewrite: ""`.
- - Object: mapping of domains to new domains, use `"*"` to match all domains.
- For example keep one domain unchanged, rewrite one domain and remove other domains:
- ```
- cookieDomainRewrite: {
- "unchanged.domain": "unchanged.domain",
- "old.domain": "new.domain",
- "*": ""
- }
- ```
- - **option.cookiePathRewrite**: rewrites path of `set-cookie` headers. Possible values:
- - `false` (default): disable cookie rewriting
- - String: new path, for example `cookiePathRewrite: "/newPath/"`. To remove the path, use `cookiePathRewrite: ""`. To set path to root use `cookiePathRewrite: "/"`.
- - Object: mapping of paths to new paths, use `"*"` to match all paths.
- For example, to keep one path unchanged, rewrite one path and remove other paths:
- ```
- cookiePathRewrite: {
- "/unchanged.path/": "/unchanged.path/",
- "/old.path/": "/new.path/",
- "*": ""
- }
- ```
- - **option.headers**: object, adds [request headers](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_HTTP_header_fields#Request_fields). (Example: `{host:'www.example.org'}`)
- - **option.proxyTimeout**: timeout (in millis) when proxy receives no response from target
- - **option.timeout**: timeout (in millis) for incoming requests
- - **option.followRedirects**: true/false, Default: false - specify whether you want to follow redirects
- - **option.selfHandleResponse** true/false, if set to true, none of the webOutgoing passes are called and it's your responsibility to appropriately return the response by listening and acting on the `proxyRes` event
- - **option.buffer**: stream of data to send as the request body. Maybe you have some middleware that consumes the request stream before proxying it on e.g. If you read the body of a request into a field called 'req.rawbody' you could restream this field in the buffer option:
-
- ```
- 'use strict';
-
- const streamify = require('stream-array');
- const HttpProxy = require('http-proxy');
- const proxy = new HttpProxy();
-
- module.exports = (req, res, next) => {
-
- proxy.web(req, res, {
- target: 'http://localhost:4003/',
- buffer: streamify(req.rawBody)
- }, next);
-
- };
- ```
-
- ## Shorthand
-
- Use the shorthand syntax when verbose configuration is not needed. The `context` and `option.target` will be automatically configured when shorthand is used. Options can still be used if needed.
-
- ```javascript
- proxy('http://www.example.org:8000/api')
- // proxy('/api', {target: 'http://www.example.org:8000'});
-
- proxy('http://www.example.org:8000/api/books/*/**.json')
- // proxy('/api/books/*/**.json', {target: 'http://www.example.org:8000'});
-
- proxy('http://www.example.org:8000/api', { changeOrigin: true })
- // proxy('/api', {target: 'http://www.example.org:8000', changeOrigin: true});
- ```
-
- ### app.use(path, proxy)
-
- If you want to use the server's `app.use` `path` parameter to match requests;
- Create and mount the proxy without the http-proxy-middleware `context` parameter:
-
- ```javascript
- app.use('/api', proxy({ target: 'http://www.example.org', changeOrigin: true }))
- ```
-
- `app.use` documentation:
-
- - express: http://expressjs.com/en/4x/api.html#app.use
- - connect: https://github.com/senchalabs/connect#mount-middleware
-
- ## WebSocket
-
- ```javascript
- // verbose api
- proxy('/', { target: 'http://echo.websocket.org', ws: true })
-
- // shorthand
- proxy('http://echo.websocket.org', { ws: true })
-
- // shorter shorthand
- proxy('ws://echo.websocket.org')
- ```
-
- ### External WebSocket upgrade
-
- In the previous WebSocket examples, http-proxy-middleware relies on a initial http request in order to listen to the http `upgrade` event. If you need to proxy WebSockets without the initial http request, you can subscribe to the server's http `upgrade` event manually.
-
- ```javascript
- var wsProxy = proxy('ws://echo.websocket.org', { changeOrigin: true })
-
- var app = express()
- app.use(wsProxy)
-
- var server = app.listen(3000)
- server.on('upgrade', wsProxy.upgrade) // <-- subscribe to http 'upgrade'
- ```
-
