NodePP Reverse Proxy: Lightweight Network Traffic Management

Simplify your network infrastructure with this lightweight and efficient reverse proxy built using NodePP, a high-performance, asynchronous, and event-driven C++ framework. This project offers a straightforward solution for routing incoming HTTP(S) traffic to different backend services based on configurable rules. Leverage the speed and concurrency of NodePP to efficiently manage and direct network requests.

Key Features

• Basic Reverse Proxy Functionality: Routes incoming HTTP(S) requests to designated backend servers.
• Simple Configuration: Easy-to-understand configuration for defining routing rules (e.g., based on path, hostname).
• Lightweight and Fast: Built with NodePP's C++ foundation, offering potentially lower resource consumption and higher throughput compared to interpreted solutions.
• Asynchronous and Non-Blocking: Handles multiple concurrent connections efficiently thanks to NodePP's asynchronous nature.

Build & Run

🪟: g++ -o main main.cpp -I ./include -lz -lssl -lcrypto -lws2_32 ; ./main

Usage

#include <nodepp/nodepp.h>
#include <nginx/http.h>

using namespace nodepp;

void onMain() {
    
    auto app = nginx::http::add();

    app.add( "move", "/contact", object_t({
        { "href"   , "http://google.com" },
        { "timeout", 30000 }
    }));

    app.add( "pipe", "/blog", object_t({
        { "href"   , "http://localhost:8001/blog" },
        { "timeout", 30000 }
    }));

    app.add( "file", nullptr, object_t({
        { "path"   , "./www" },
        { "timeout", 30000 }
    }));

    app.listen( "0.0.0.0", 8000, []( ... ){
        console::log( "Listening -> http://localhost:8000" );
    });
