WeedProxite

Run Mirror Proxy Site.

Setup

1. Create mirror site directory and install WeedProxite (You need to install Node.js and NPM first):

mkdir my-site
cd my-site
npm install --production git+https://github.com/Behemouth/WeedProxite.git
# If you want to install global, add '-g' option
# npm install --production -g git+https://github.com/Behemouth/WeedProxite.git

2. Init site:

export PATH="$(npm bin):$PATH";
proxite init
# Or use relative path
# ./node_modules/.bin/proxite init

3. Configure, edit config.js, you can override with config.json:

module.exports = {
  "upstream": "http://upstream-target-site.com",
  "port":"1984",
  "mirrorLinks": ["http://your-mirror-site-domain:1984/"],
  "allowHosts":[
    "sub-domain-of.upstream-target-site.com",
    "another-example-target-site.com"
  ]
}

4. Run node main.js or use PM2 pm2 start main.js --name my-mirror for production.

5. Don't forget to set a daily restart Node.js server cronjob on production server if you enabled httpsOptions coz of Node.js HTTPS module memory leaks.
