Node http-proxy and express

Question

I\'m trying to do something like this:

// Setup prox to handle blog requests
httpProxy.createServer({
    hostnameOnly: true,
    router: {
        \'http://         


        

Answer 1

I have used simple solution to proxified my GET/POST requests.

var httpProxy = require('http-proxy');
var apiProxy = httpProxy.createProxyServer();

app.post("/api/*", function(req, res) {
  apiProxy.web(req, res, { target: 'http://localhost:5000'})
});
app.get("/api/*", function(req, res) {
  apiProxy.web(req, res, { target: 'http://localhost:5000'})
});

another easier way to handle all type of requests is:

app.all("/api/*", function(req, res) {
  apiProxy.web(req, res, { target: 'http://localhost:5000'})
});

NOTE: above functions must be before bodyparser.
