http splitter
Receive a http GET request and send it to multiple microservices. Useful when you have a production server and want to receive the same request on development server. Another application is database realtime replication by a microservice. Can work with reverseproxy project.
How it works?
Just complete the conf.json file and run the server. Example:
{
"ip":"",
"port":"8080",
"handler":"/update",
"routes": [
"192.168.88.160:8080",
"192.168.88.164:8000"
]
}
Configuration details
"ip":"",
No ip mean localhost on hosting server. Is no need to change this, in most cases can miss.
"port":"8080",
The server listening on this port. Remeber to forward the port 80 to this port if your connection pass through a router. No root right are required if you run on big ports (eg. 8080).
Handler
Mean what splitter listen for. This request with query string will be forward to destination routes. Target always start with /.
Routes
Routes has the folowing structure
"http://target:port"
Isn't a limit to define routes but usually you need two or three routes (a basic scenario include main server, backup and dev). Is better to keep this limit reasonable low.
