how to about cors-proxy2

[rhildred]

Hi:

I made this repo when I was wrestling with getting a corsProxy working with Cloudflare functions. Since I didn't delete it when the approach in this repo failed, I will update it with the working code in an hour or so.

I think that I have cleaned up now. Please test my instructions and let me know by closing the issue if you could get it to work.

can i run this code use express JS ?
i'm confused about cloudflare pages

[rhildred]

The response is handled a little differently in express. I added a method so that cors-proxy2 can run on express or on Cloudflare pages functions. Please let me know if I have answered your question.

how to follow redirect and display the html page

[rhildred]

Hi:

Looks like you have it working. I guess I could follow the redirect by looking at the status code and re-doing the fetch. I could use that behavior for downloading .zips from github in a progressive web app.

I refactored cors-proxy because I found the testing server supplied with isomorphic git unreliable. I wanted to use git from within a progressive web app and on stackblitz. I reasoned that if I exported it as a Cloudflare pages function I could use it as part of my larger project diy-pwa and it would stand up when sales engineers (my target market) start really using diy-pwa.

I didn't intend for it to be an open proxy, but I left out the code from cors-proxy that restricted it to git. My intention was to put the git code back in but I didn't think that anyone would be interested in cors-proxy2 by itself and there were more pressing details. I would be interested to know about your use case for cors-proxy2. In the meantime, I will transparently follow the redirect when fetching for the downloading a .zip from github case.

Thanks

I created the library to run cloudflare workers and pages functions on express. It is at https://github.com/diy-pwa/cloudflare2express. I didn't write any tests yet, but if you look at the example there are 3 desk check test endpoints. I didn't get following a redirect done. Out of time for today but I am planning on cleaning up sometime soon.
