httpcache

An HTTP server that proxies all requests to other HTTP servers and this servers caches all incoming responses objects

Backend Requirements

• golang - The Go Programming Language
• docker - Build, Manage and Secure Your Apps Anywhere. Your Way.

Prepare GO development environment

Follow install guide to install golang.

Build without docker

mkdir -p $GOPATH/src/github.com/donutloop/ && cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/donutloop/

git clone git@github.com:donutloop/httpcache.git

cd httpcache

go build ./cmd/httpcache

Build with docker

mkdir -p $GOPATH/src/github.com/donutloop/ && cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/donutloop/

git clone git@github.com:donutloop/httpcache.git

docker build .

USAGE
  httpcache [flags]

FLAGS
  -cap 100          capacity of cache
  -cert server.crt  TLS certificate
  -expire 5         the items in the cache expire after or expire never
  -http :80         serve HTTP on this address (optional)
  -key server.key   TLS key
  -rbcl 524288000   response size limit
  -tls              serve TLS on this address (optional)

Usage of cache from outside (GO Example)

...
transport := &http.Transport{
    Proxy: SetProxyURL(proxyServer.URL), // Set url of http cache 
    DialContext: (&net.Dialer{
        Timeout:   30 * time.Second,
        KeepAlive: 30 * time.Second,
        DualStack: true,
    }).DialContext,
    MaxIdleConns:          100,
    IdleConnTimeout:       90 * time.Second,
    TLSHandshakeTimeout:   10 * time.Second,
    ExpectContinueTimeout: 1 * time.Second,
}

client = &http.Client{
    Transport: transport,
}

client.Do(req)
...

Run container

It's expose port 8000 and run a spefici container by id

sudo docker run  -p 8000:8000 {{container_id}}
