A simple caching proxy for a single upstream service.

A simple caching proxy for a single upstream service.

go get github.com/pranavraja/front

Example

Say you run npm install a lot, and share code with your coworkers who also run npm install. You want to front the npm registry with a caching server to speed up your builds, and stop wasting community resources.

Try this:

front --upstream registry.npmjs.org

and then:

npm install --registry http://localhost:8080

Features

• Rewrite upstream URLs in responses, e.g. registry.npmjs.org => localhost:8080
• Cache responses based on a TTL (which can be overriden with the --ttl flag)

Running the tests

Clone the repo, and:

go test ./cache
