Flask-Proxy

Flask-Proxy makes it easier to create proxy pass router in Flask.

Install

• From PyPI:

pip install Flask-Proxy

• Clone:

git clone [email protected]:mecforlove/flask-proxy.git
cd flask_proxy
python setup.py install

Quick start

There is a simple example to make a proxy pass for httpbin.org.

First, create a python file named httpbin.py:

from flask import Flask
from flask_proxy import Proxy, Upstream


class Httpbin(Upstream):
    prefix = '/httpbin'
    host = 'httpbin.org'
    routes = [{
        'url': '/get',
        'methods': ['GET'],
    }, {
        'url': '/post',
        'methods': ['POST'],
    }]

app = Flask(__name__)
proxy = Proxy(app)
proxy.add_upstream(Httpbin)
app.run()

Then we just run the flask app above:

$ python httpbin.py
* Running on http://127.0.0.1:5000/ (Press CTRL+C to quit)

At last, we open another terminal and test it with curl:

$ curl http://localhost:5000/httpbin/get
{
  "args": {},
  "headers": {
    "Accept": "*/*",
    "Accept-Encoding": "gzip, deflate",
    "Connection": "close",
    "Host": "httpbin.org",
    "User-Agent": "curl/7.54.0"
  },
  "origin": "47.90.41.239",
  "url": "http://httpbin.org/get"
}

Everything is done!
