HTTP Reverse Proxy Cache

HTTProxy Cache

Example config found here:

upstream: "https://httpbin.org"
routes:
- path: "/anything/:param1"
  clear_cache:
  - DELETE
  - POST

How it works

The service has a catch-all route that proxies ALL requests to the specified upstream.
GET routes defined in the config.yamL are cached in memory. The first request is made against upstream and all future ones are served out of memory.
A HEAD request against the route will clear the cache.
Request methods defined in clear_cache will also clear it.

Example:

1. GET /anything/foobar -> proxied, saved in memory
2. GET /anything/foobar -> served from cache
3. POST /anything/foobar -> proxied, clears cache
4. GET /anything/foobar -> proxied, saved in memory
