Tiny proxy server (~5Mb) to redirect http traffic to target host through proxy

HTTP to SOCKS tiny proxy server

The idea is to have a proxy server that can be used to tunnel HTTP traffic to some server through a proxy (e.g. socks5 or http proxy). This is useful when you want to use a reverse proxy service to route traffic to a specific host without changing the client code (except base url).

Usage

Note: For all examples below we assume that the proxy server is socks5 proxy and the target server is https://api.example.com with authentication.

Executable usage

Add environment variables:

PROXY_DSN='socks5://test1:test2@123.123.123.123:25000'
TARGET_HOST=https://api.example.com
DEFAULT_HEADERS='Authorization: Bearer test'
IGNORE_SSL=true

Run.

./app
