Introduction
I was looking for a reverse proxy to replace nginx and found valyala/fasthttp.
I had just developed jarxorg/tree, so I started developing fasthttpd/fasthttpd, thinking that if I combined the two, I could create a product that would meet my needs.
Features
- Serve static files
- Simple routing
- Access logging
- Reverse proxy
- Customize headers
- Support TLS
- Virtual hosts
- YAML configuration
Getting started
Specify the configuration file.
fasthttpd -f path/to/config.yaml
Use build-in configuration and some customization.
fasthttpd -e root=./public -e listen=:8080
Installation
Using homebrew.
brew tap fasthttpd/fasthttpd
brew install fasthttpd
In addition, binaries, deb, rpm and docker image are available.
Refer to https://github.com/fasthttpd/fasthttpd#installation
Alternate nginx example
The following is nginx.conf.
upstream backend {
server 127.0.0.1:8000;
}
server {
listen 80 default_server;
return 302 https://$host$request_uri;
}
server {
listen 443 default_server;
ssl on;
ssl_protocols TLSv1 TLSv1.1 TLSv1.2;
ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/example.com/fullchain.pem;
ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/example.com/privkey.pem;
error_page 404 /404.html;
error_page 500 502 503 504 /50x.html;
location ~ ^/(404|50.).html {
root /usr/share/nginx/html;
internal;
}
location ~ ^/(.*)\.(ico|css|git|jpg|jpeg|png|js)$ {
alias /app/public/$1.$2;
}
location / {
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Port $server_port;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_intercept_errors on;
proxy_pass http://backend;
}
}
The following is a configuration of fasthttpd.
host: example.com
listen: ':80'
routes:
- path: ^/(.*)$
match: regexp
rewrite: https://example.com/$1
status: 302
---
host: example.com
listen: ':443'
root: /usr/share/fasthttpd/html
ssl:
autoCert: true
errorPages:
'404': /err/404.html
'5xx': /err/5xx.html
handlers:
'backend':
type: proxy
url: http://localhost:8080/
'public':
type: fs
root: /app/public
indexNames: [index.html]
routes:
- path: ^/(.*)\.(ico|css|git|jpg|jpeg|png|js)$
match: regexp
handler: public
- path: /
handler: backend
I would be happy to get your feedback, Thank you!
