Plack::Middleware::Proxy::Requests - Forward proxy server
# In app.psgi use Plack::Builder; use Plack::App::Proxy; builder { enable "Proxy::Connect"; enable "Proxy::AddVia"; enable "Proxy::Requests"; Plack::App::Proxy->new->to_app; };
# From shell plackup -s Twiggy -E Proxy -e 'enable q{AccessLog}' app.psgi # or twiggy -MPlack::App::Proxy \ -e 'enable q{AccessLog}; enable q{Proxy::Connect}; \ enable q{Proxy::AddVia}; enable q{Proxy::Requests}; \ Plack::App::Proxy->new->to_app'
This module handles HTTP requests as a forward proxy server.
Its job is to set a plack.proxy.url environment variable based on REQUEST_URI variable.
plack.proxy.url
REQUEST_URI
The HTTP responses from the Internet might be invalid. In that case it is required to run the server without Plack::Middleware::Lint module. This module is started by default and disabled if -E or --no-default-middleware option is used when starting plackup script. Note that this disables also Plack::Middleware::AccessLog so it has to be enabled explicitly if needed.
-E
--no-default-middleware
The default server Plack::Server::PSGI alias Standalone can hang up on the stalled connection. It is better to run a proxy server with Starlet, Starman or Twiggy.
Standalone
Plack, Plack::App::Proxy, Plack::Middleware::Proxy::Connect, Plack::Middleware::Proxy::AddVia, Starlet, Starman, Twiggy.
