Request forwarding on Google App Engine

A simple application for forwarding request :

Change HTTP method
Set default parameters
Filter request parameters
Hide your secret :
- Cloak forwarding URL
- Choose request URL (long and/or cryptic)
- Add HTTP basic authentication
- Add additional parameters

Disclaimer : Not really tested, nor finished :(. I wrote this for a simple need : bypass a missing User-Agent and hide some password.

Installation

And read documentation
Clone this repository
copy app-sample.yaml to app_engine/app.yaml
- edit app_engine/app.yaml and change application id
copy config-sample.yaml to app_engine/config.yaml
- edit app_engine/config.yaml (see Configuration)
copy config-test-local.yaml to app_engine/config-test-local.yaml
- edit app_engine/config-test-local.yaml (see Configuration)

see content in app_engine/config-sample.yaml

Need some documentation

app_engine/config-test-local.yaml is for local testing (with SDK). It will be merged with app_engine/config.yaml .

URL re-defined in app_engine/config-test-local.yaml will take over app_engine/config.yaml . It won't be used on deployed application.

# Go to application directory and launch it with :
dev_appserver.py app_engine

# After testing it, deploy on Google App Engine
appcfg.py update app_engine
