I have created a http/https proxy with the aid of the http-proxy module: https://gist.github.com/ncthis/6863947

Code as of now:

var fs = require('fs'),
  http = require('http'),
  https = require('https'),
  httpProxy = require('http-proxy');

var isHttps = true; // do you want a https proxy?

var options = {
  https: {
    key: fs.readFileSync('key.pem'),
    cert: fs.readFileSync('key-cert.pem')
  }
};

// this is the target server
var proxy = new httpProxy.HttpProxy({
  target: {
    host: '127.0.0.1',
    port: 8080
  }
});

if (isHttps)
  https.createServer(options.https, function(req, res) {
    console.log('Proxying https request at %s', new Date());
    proxy.proxyRequest(req, res);
  }).listen(443, function(err) {
    if (err)
      console.log('Error serving https proxy request: %s', req);

    console.log('Created https proxy. Forwarding requests from %s to %s:%s', '443', proxy.target.host, proxy.target.port);
  });
else
  http.createServer(options.https, function(req, res) {
    console.log('Proxying http request at %s', new Date());
    console.log(req);
    proxy.proxyRequest(req, res);
  }).listen(80, function(err) {
    if (err)
      console.log('Error serving http proxy request: %s', req);

    console.log('Created http proxy. Forwarding requests from %s to %s:%s', '80', proxy.target.host, proxy.target.port);
  });
