I've created a reverse proxy like this:
func ProxyFunc(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
u, err := url.Parse("http://mynetworkserverhere:8957/some/path/here/")
if err == nil {
proxy := httputil.NewSingleHostReverseProxy(u)
proxy.ServeHTTP(w, r)
//????
} else {
w.Write([]byte(err.Error()))
}
}
And invoke it from main:
func main() {
log.Printf("Starting...")
http.HandleFunc("/", ProxyFunc)
log.Fatal(http.ListenAndServe(":6060", nil))
}
And it works as expected from the client side, but I'd like to read the response from the proxy, how can I do that?
The net/http package is really flexible. You can replace the default Transport of the ReverseProxy with your own, which just uses the DefaultTransport. Then you can intercept the RoundTrip call and do whatever you'd like.
package main
import (
"log"
"net/http"
"net/http/httputil"
"net/url"
)
func main() {
log.Printf("Starting...")
http.HandleFunc("/", someFunc)
log.Fatal(http.ListenAndServe(":6060", nil))
}
func someFunc(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
// change the request host to match the target
r.Host = "you.host.here:port"
u, _ := url.Parse("http://you.host.here:port/some/path/")
proxy := httputil.NewSingleHostReverseProxy(u)
// You can optionally capture/wrap the transport if that's necessary (for
// instance, if the transport has been replaced by middleware). Example:
// proxy.Transport = &myTransport{proxy.Transport}
proxy.Transport = &myTransport{}
proxy.ServeHTTP(w, r)
}
type myTransport struct {
// Uncomment this if you want to capture the transport
// CapturedTransport http.RoundTripper
}
func (t *myTransport) RoundTrip(request *http.Request) (*http.Response, error) {
response, err := http.DefaultTransport.RoundTrip(request)
// or, if you captured the transport
// response, err := t.CapturedTransport.RoundTrip(request)
// The httputil package provides a DumpResponse() func that will copy the
// contents of the body into a []byte and return it. It also wraps it in an
// ioutil.NopCloser and sets up the response to be passed on to the client.
body, err := httputil.DumpResponse(response, true)
if err != nil {
// copying the response body did not work
return nil, err
}
// You may want to check the Content-Type header to decide how to deal with
// the body. In this case, we're assuming it's text.
log.Print(string(body))
return response, err
}
