phrank

phrank is a generic reverse proxy born out of the desire to build pure client-side apps accessing third party APIs. It is designed to be easily cloud-deployable.

Configuration

All configuration is done using command line flags.

Resources

Resources can be:

• Another HTTP URL (i.e. http(s)://<Domain>/<Path>)
• Local, static content (i.e. file://<Path>)

To define a map, just specifiy a --map flag for each resource that you use:

$ phrank --map "/api => https://api.twitter.com" \
         --map "/ => file://./static"

Usage & Deployment

My usual use-case is to fork this repository and deploy it to Heroku, dotCloud or any other PaaS that supports Go.
