🛠️ Configuration

Before starting the server, there are a few steps you need to complete.

1️⃣ Setup .env file:

SSL_KEY="PATH/TO/SSL_KEY"
SSL_CERT="PATH/TO/SSL_CERTIFICATE"

2️⃣ Setup list.json file:

[
    {
        "name": "",
        "protocol": "",
        "port": 8000,
        "host": [ "HOSTNAME" ],
        "forward": {
            "address": "HOSTNAME",
            "port": 8000
        }
    },
]

• name (optional): Before starting the server, there are a few steps you need to complete.
• protocol: Canba http, https or tcp.
• port: The port on which the reverse proxy listens.
• host: An array of hostnames that the proxy should handle.
• forward: The destination server details.

Example:

[
    {
        "name": "Chat Server",
        "protocol": "tcp",
        "port": 8000,
        "host": [ "your.domain.com", "www.domain.com", "my.domain.com" ],
        "forward": {
            "address": "your-server.local",
            "port": 3000
        }
    },
    {
        "protocol": "https",
        "port": 8001,
        "host": [ "domain.com" ],
        "forward": {
            "address": "your-web-server.local",
            "port": 3000
        }
    },
    {
        "protocol": "tcp",
        "port": 8002,
        "host": "*",
        "forward": {
            "address": "your-web-db.local",
            "port": 3000
        }
    }
]

Explaination:

• Requests to your.domain.com:8000, www.domain.com:8000, or my.domain.com:8000 will be forwarded to your-server.local:3000 over TCP.
• Requests to domain.com:8001 over HTTPS will be forwarded to your-web-server.local:3000 over HTTP.
