enproxy provides an implementation of net.Conn that sends and receives data to/ from a proxy using HTTP request/response pairs that encapsulate the data. This is useful when you need to tunnel arbitrary protocols over an HTTP proxy that doesn't support HTTP CONNECT. Content distribution networks are one example of such a proxy.
To open such a connection:
conn := &enproxy.Conn{
Addr: addr,
Config: &enproxy.Config{
DialProxy: func(addr string) (net.Conn, error) {
// This opens a TCP connection to the proxy
return net.Dial("tcp", proxyAddress)
},
NewRequest: func(method string, body io.Reader) (req *http.Request, err error) {
// This is called for every request from enproxy.Conn to the proxy
return http.NewRequest(method, "http://"+proxyAddress+"/", body)
},
},
}
err := conn.Connect()
if err == nil {
// start using conn as any other net.Conn
}
To start the corresponding proxy server:
proxy := &enproxy.Proxy{}
err := proxy.ListenAndServe(proxyAddress)
if err != nil {
log.Fatalf("Unable to listen and serve: %s", err)
}
