fbi-proxy
FBI-Proxy provides easy HTTPS access to your local services with intelligent domain routing.
Features
Current Features ✅
- Intelligent Domain Routing: Multiple routing patterns for flexible service access
- Port-based routing (e.g.,
3000.fbi.com→localhost:3000) - Host--Port routing (e.g.,
api--3001.fbi.com→api:3001) - Subdomain routing with Host headers (e.g.,
admin.app.fbi.com→app:80) - Direct host forwarding (e.g.,
myserver.fbi.com→myserver:80)
- Port-based routing (e.g.,
- WebSocket Support: Full WebSocket connection support for all routing patterns
- High Performance: Built with Rust for optimal performance and low resource usage
- Easy Setup: Simple one-command installation and startup
- Docker Support: Available as a Docker image for containerized deployments
- Flexible Configuration: Environment variables and CLI options for customization
- Cross-Platform: Works on macOS, Linux, and Windows
- Integration Ready: Compatible with reverse proxies like Caddy for HTTPS
Roadmap
Next Up 🚧
- Configuration File Support - YAML/JSON config for persistent routing rules
- Access Control - Domain filtering, host/port whitelisting
- Request Logging - Basic access logs for debugging
- Health Checks - Simple upstream service availability monitoring
Future Improvements 🔮
- Load Balancing - Round-robin between multiple upstream targets
- Metrics - Basic statistics (requests, response times, errors)
- Hot Reload - Update configuration without restart
- Custom Headers - Add/modify headers for specific routes
Routing Examples
# Port forwarding
https://3000.fbi.com → localhost:3000
https://8080.fbi.com → localhost:8080
# Host--Port forwarding
https://api--3001.fbi.com → api:3001
https://db--5432.fbi.com → db:5432
# Subdomain routing (with Host header)
https://admin.app.fbi.com → app:80 (Host: admin)
https://v2.api.fbi.com → api:80 (Host: v2)
# Direct host forwarding
https://myserver.fbi.com → myserver:80
WebSocket connections are supported for all patterns.
Usage
# launch
bunx fbi-proxy
# expose to LAN
bunx fbi-proxy --host 0.0.0.0 --port=2432
# run with docker
docker run --rm --name fbi-proxy --network=host snomiao/fbi-proxy
Using with Caddy (Optional)
FBI-Proxy focuses on the core proxy functionality. For HTTPS and advanced routing, you can use Caddy as a reverse proxy:
Install Caddy
# macOS
brew install caddy
# Ubuntu/Debian
sudo apt install -y debian-keyring debian-archive-keyring apt-transport-https
curl -1sLf 'https://dl.cloudsmith.io/public/caddy/stable/gpg.key' | sudo gpg --dearmor -o /usr/share/keyrings/caddy-stable-archive-keyring.gpg
curl -1sLf 'https://dl.cloudsmith.io/public/caddy/stable/debian.deb.txt' | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/caddy-stable.list
sudo apt update
sudo apt install caddy
# Or download from https://caddyserver.com/download
Caddyfile Example
Create a Caddyfile to route *.fbi.com to FBI-Proxy:
*.fbi.com {
reverse_proxy localhost:2432
tls internal
}
Run Both Services
# Terminal 1: Start FBI-Proxy
bunx fbi-proxy
# Terminal 2: Start Caddy
caddy run --config Caddyfile
Now you can access your services via HTTPS at https://*.fbi.com!
Development
# Install dependencies
bun install
# Start development
bun run dev
# Or production
bun run build && bun run start

| Variable | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|
FBI_PROXY_PORT |
Port for the proxy server to listen on | 2432 |
FBI_PROXY_HOST |
Host/IP address to bind to | 127.0.0.1 |
RUST_LOG |
Log level for the Rust proxy (error, warn, info, debug, trace) | info |
FBIPROXY_PORT |
Internal proxy port (auto-assigned) | Auto |
Command-line arguments take precedence over environment variables.
