This is pure-Perl HTTP proxy server which can be run on almost every Perl installation.
It uses thrall pre-threading HTTP server if Perl supports threads or starlight pre-forking HTTP server otherwise.
It supports SSL and TLS if IO::Socket::SSL is installed and IPv6 if IO::Socket::IP is installed.
It can be fat-packed and then run with any system with standard Perl
interpreter without installing other packages. See examples directory for
fat-packed version of PureProxy script.
PureProxy is an application that accepts arguments of plackup binary and HTTP servers like thrall or starlight.

Specifies the pathname of a file where the access log should be written. By default, in the development environment access logs will go to STDERR. See plackup. (default: none)
Makes the process run in the background. It doesn't work (yet) in native Windows (MSWin32). (default: 0)
Specifies the environment option. See plackup. (default: "deployment")
Specify the pathname of a file where the error log should be written. This
enables you to still have access to the errors when using --daemonize.
(default: none)
Changes the group ids or group names that the server should switch to after binding to the port. The ids or names can be separated with commas or space characters. (default: none)
Binds to a TCP interface. Defaults to undef, which lets most server backends bind to the any (*) interface. This option is only valid for servers which support TCP sockets.
Specifies Perl library include paths, like perl's -I option. You
may add multiple paths by using this option multiple times. See plackup.
Enables IPv6 support. The IO::Socket::IP module is required. (default: 1 if IO::Socket::IP is available or 0 otherwise)
Timeout for persistent connections. (default: 2)
Starlet changes the default loader to Delayed to make lower consumption
of the children and prevent problems with shared IO handlers. It might be set to
Plack::Loader to restore the default loader.
Loads the named modules before loading the app's code. You may load multiple modules by using this option multiple times. See plackup. (default: none)
The Starlight nor Thrall do not synchronize their processes and require a small delay in main process so it doesn't consume all CPU. (default: 0.1)
Max. number of requests allowed per single persistent connection. If set to one, persistent connections are disabled. (default: 1)
Max. number of requests to be handled before a worker process exits. (default: 1000)
A number of worker threads. (default: 50)
If set, randomizes the number of requests handled by a single worker process
between the value and that supplied by --max-reqs-per-chlid.
(default: none)
Binds to a TCP port. Defaults to 5000. This option is only valid for servers which support TCP sockets.
Note: default port 5000 may conflict with AirPlay server on MacOS 12 (Monterey) or later.
Specify the pid file path. Use it with -D|--daemonize option.
(default: none)
Suppress the message about starting a server.
Makes plackup restart the server whenever a file in your development directory changes. See plackup. (default: none)
Makes plackup restart the server whenever a file in any of the given directories changes. See plackup. (default: none)
Enables UNIX socket support. The IO::Socket::UNIX module is required. The
socket file has to be not yet created. The first character @ or \0 in
the socket file name means that an abstract socket address will be created.
(default: none)
If set, worker processes will not be spawned more than once every given second. Also, when SIGHUP is being received, no more than one worker process will be collected every given second. This feature is useful for doing a "slow restart". (default: none)
Enables SSL support. The IO::Socket::SSL module is required. (default: 0)
Specifies the path to the SSL CA certificate file which will be a part of server's certificate chain. (default: none)
Specifies the path to the SSL certificate file. (default: none)
Specifies the path to the SSL CA certificate file for client verification. (default: none)
Specifies the path to the SSL key file. (default: none)
Specifies the verification mode for the client certificate. See "SSL_verify_mode" in IO::Socket::SSL for details. (default: 0)
Seconds until timeout. (default: 300)
Enables Plack::Middleware::TrafficLog middleware that logs detailed information about headers and the body.
If the filename is providen then middleware writes to this file. Standard output is used otherwise.
Sets the line separator for message's body for log generated by Plack::Middleware::TrafficLog middleware.
Changes file mode creation mask. The "umask" in perlfunc is an octal number
representing disabled permissions bits for newly created files. It is usually
022 when a group shouldn't have permission to write or 002 when a group
should have permission to write. (default: none)
Changes the user id or user name that the server process should switch to after binding to the port. The pid file, error log or unix socket also are created before changing privileges. This option is usually used if the main process is started with root privileges because binding to the low-numbered (<1024) port. (default: none)
Changes the default PSGI server. This is Thrall if Perl supports threads and Starlight otherwise.
