Proxy Remote Env

Proxy remote environments using the micro proxy

When developing against remote environments you may not have direct access to service discovery which makes it difficult to use the CLI. The micro proxy provides a http proxy for such scenarios.

Run the proxy in your remote environment

micro proxy

Set the env var MICRO_PROXY_ADDRESS so the cli knows to use the proxy

MICRO_PROXY_ADDRESS=staging.micro.mu:8081 micro list services
