I am using the http-proxy npm module for connecting multiple servers to a single port.
I wrote the following code and it's working fine:
var http = require('http');
var httpProxy = require('http-proxy');
// Proxy Address
var proxyAddresses = [
{
host: "localhost",
port: 3001
},
{
host: "localhost",
port: 3002
}
];
/**
* Get port from environment and store in Express.
*/
var port = normalizePort(process.env.PORT || '9090');
app.set('port', port);
//Create a set of proxy servers
var proxyServers = proxyAddresses.map(function (target) {
return new httpProxy.createProxyServer({
target: target
});
});
/**
* Create HTTP server.
*/
var server = http.createServer(function(req, res){
var proxy = proxyServers.shift();
proxy.web(req, res);
proxyServers.push(proxy);
});
/**
* Listen on provided port, on all network interfaces.
*/
server.listen(port, function(){console.log("server is listening on port " + port);});
server.on('error', onError);
server.on('listening', onListening);
My problem:
If one of my servers (for example port 3002) is not started or has an error, how can I automatically redirect requests to the other available server (ie port 3001)?
I've been using the http-proxy-rules extension as described here: https://github.com/donasaur/http-proxy-rules
I set up some rules and it gives the option to default if the page requested doesn't exist:
var proxyRules = new HttpProxyRules({
rules: {
'.*/test': 'http://localhost:8080/cool', // Rule (1)
'.*/test2/': 'http://localhost:8080/cool2/', // Rule (2)
'/posts/([0-9]+)/comments/([0-9]+)': 'http://localhost:8080/p/$1/c/$2', // Rule (3)
'/author/([0-9]+)/posts/([0-9]+)/': 'http://localhost:8080/a/$1/p/$2/' // Rule (4)
},
default: 'http://localhost:8080' // default target
The default bit being relevant to you. There's also some code which states a message to display:
res.writeHead(500, { 'Content-Type': 'text/plain' });
res.end('The request url and path did not match any of the listed rules!');
I haven't tested this extensively but certainly got the redirection if a rule wasn't matched working - might be of some help to you.
