WarpRelay

A simple reverse proxy that utilises YAML files intended for use with HTTP servers

Why?

• Despite there being many reverse proxies (like Caddy which is based on go and offers much more functionality) I decided to make this
• Why? I wanted to know how
• Also, I got bored by CaddyFiles and I find YAML to be relaxing for my smooth brain

How to use

• Get the binary from the releases page
• You can then Execute the binary from terminal by running ./warp to use Default options or check options for other methods to initialize the server
• From there create a file called config.YAML inside the Config directory based on the sample here

Options

The syntax for running warp from terminal is:

warp [flags] [...]

The available flags are as follows:

-v,                             Enable verbose output on default settings
-cv </path/to/config/file>,     Uses path as config file and enables verbose output
-h,                             Shows Help Text
-c </path/to/config/file>,      Uses path as config file

YAML Sample

proxyPort: "7080"   # Port at which proxy server will run
certPath : /path/to/server.crt    # Location of SSL cert file  
keyPath: /path/to/server.key    # Location of SSL key file
endpoints:
  - backendUrl : http://localhost:9080    # IP:Port of your webserver
    proxyEndpoint : /one    # Endpoint where above webserver is to be accessible from
  - backendUrl: https://localhost:9081
    proxyEndpoint: /two
