reverse-proxy

A very simple reverse proxy in go

Generate self-signed certficates

openssl req  -new  -newkey rsa:2048  -nodes  -keyout revpro.key  -out revpro.csr

openssl  x509  -req  -days 365  -in revpro.csr  -signkey revpro.key  -out revpro.crt

Use the revpro.key and revpro.crt in the cli:

reverse-proxy start --ipaddress 172.200.18.22 --port 443 --protocol https --proxyport 8080 --httptimeout 10 --certfile cert.crt --keyfile key.key
reverse-proxy start --ipaddress 172.200.18.22

Usage:
  reverse-proxy start [flags]

Flags:
      --certfile string    certificate file with path for tls (default "./certs/revpro.crt")
  -h, --help               help for start
      --httptimeout int    http timeout value in seconds (default 10)
      --ipaddress string   ip of the remote server
      --keyfile string     certificate key file with path for tls (default "./certs/revpro.key")
      --port string        port of the remote server (default "443")
      --protocol string    protocol to connect http/https (default "https")
      --proxyport string   proxyport on which the revereproxy would be served (default "8080")

The port might be blocked by your IT. Make sure to check what ports are available.

For the example IP in the reverseproxy.go, this is how a typical curl command to your server would look like

curl -XGET -u username:password https://100.67.28.113:8080/yourendpoint  --insecure
