A node https proxy for local development

Start Proxy

• install node packages npm install if not done yet (http-proxy has few dependencies. Thats nice.)
• start proxy npm start <listening port>:<target port> or just node proxy.js <port>:<port>
  • e.g. npm start 8080:9000
• visit "securely" https://localhost:8080

Or start multiple proxys like so: (trap 'kill 0' SIGINT; node proxy.js 8081 & node proxy.js 8082:9000)
