traffic_router

Routes request into several web applications.

Also, an Async version is available here.

Goal

Intended to avoid Apache web server for such routing.

Setup

Following three files are needed to configure and run this router:

1. Sites.json - To update web application URLs, PORTs 
2. Port-Forwarding.txt - To enable and complete port forwarding processes described in it
3. traffic_router.service - To run this router as a service

Example

This traffic router is used in routing following two web applications; written in Rust/hyper; running in a digital ocean's droplet:

  1. find latest NAV site
  2. login app

Note: It works for http. For https, use NGINX. Refer https-demo for steps to be followed for nginx.
