Show HN: A Reverse Proxy with Pingora

2 years ago

I've been playing with Pingora to create a reverse proxy that connects backend HTTP or HTTPs service to a single HTTPs frontend (similar to what is generally done with Nginx) serving distinct SSL certificates (using SNI and the host header) for each backend service.

In this example, if you connect to https://127.0.0.1:4430:

* with an SNI and Host header of somedomain.com, you will be served an SSL certificate to somedomain.com and a proxied connection to http://127.0.0.1:4000.

* with an SNI and Host header of one.one.one.one, you will be served an SSL certificate to one.one.one.one and a proxied connection to https://one.one.one.one.

Note: Pingora is a network services crate that Cloudflare recently opensourced, see https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39535969 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39551115
