`@push.rocks/smartproxy` is a versatile package for setting up and handling proxies with various capabilities such as SSL redirection, port proxying, and creating network proxies with complex routing rules. Below is a comprehensive guide on using its features.
### Setting Up a Network Proxy
Create a network proxy to route incoming HTTPS requests to different local servers based on the hostname.
```typescript
import { NetworkProxy } from '@push.rocks/smartproxy';
// Instantiate the NetworkProxy with desired options
const myNetworkProxy = new NetworkProxy({ port: 443 });
// Optionally, add default headers to all responses
await myNetworkProxy.addDefaultHeaders({
'X-Powered-By': 'smartproxy',
});
```
### Port Proxying
You can also set up a port proxy to forward traffic from one port to another, which is useful for dynamic port forwarding scenarios.
```typescript
import { PortProxy } from '@push.rocks/smartproxy';
// Create a PortProxy to forward traffic from port 5000 to port 3000
const myPortProxy = new PortProxy(5000, 3000);
// Start the port proxy
await myPortProxy.start();
// To stop the port proxy, simply call
await myPortProxy.stop();
```
### Enabling SSL Redirection
Easily redirect HTTP traffic to HTTPS using the `SslRedirect` class. This is particularly useful when ensuring all traffic uses encryption.
```typescript
import { SslRedirect } from '@push.rocks/smartproxy';
// Instantiate the SslRedirect on port 80 (HTTP)
const mySslRedirect = new SslRedirect(80);
// Start listening and redirecting to HTTPS
await mySslRedirect.start();
// To stop the redirection, use
await mySslRedirect.stop();
```
### Advanced Usage
The package integrates seamlessly with TypeScript, allowing for advanced use cases, such as implementing custom routing logic, authentication mechanisms, and handling WebSocket connections through the network proxy.
For a more advanced setup involving WebSocket proxying and dynamic configuration reloading, refer to the network proxy example provided above. The WebSocket support demonstrates how seamless it is to work with real-time applications.
Remember, when dealing with certificates and private keys for HTTPS configurations, always secure your keys and store them appropriately.
`@push.rocks/smartproxy` provides a solid foundation for handling high workloads and complex proxying requirements with ease, whether you're implementing SSL redirections, port forwarding, or extensive routing and WebSocket support in your network.
