Google Cloud Platform AppEngine transparent proxy
Useful to use App Engine service as a facade for Compute Engine instances or standalone servers having permanent IP address.
The main purpose and benefit of using transparent proxy is to obtain a *.appspot.com domain name with a valid SSL certificate in order to connect to Compute Engine HTTP endpoints without additional settings.
Place endpoints.conf file, having list of endpoints, to the appengine-redirect app directory.
Refer for appengine-redirect/endpoints.conf.sample
sample configuration file.
For each line in config file corresponding endpoint will be configured.
For example for a given configuration
ep310 http://135.187.234.31:8080
ep311 http://135.187.234.31:8001
ep32 https://135.187.234.32
following endpoints created
https://<my-shiny-name>.appspot.com/ep310/
https://<my-shiny-name>.appspot.com/ep311/
https://<my-shiny-name>.appspot.com/ep32/
and all requests similar to https://<my-shiny-name>.appspot.com/ep310/xxx/yyy/zzz are going to be
transparently redirected to http://135.187.234.31:8080/xxx/yyy/zzz.
