proxy-2

Example showing an HTTP Proxy implemented with BlackSheep

This example shows an HTTP Proxy implementation, proxying requests for another blacksheep back-end.

Run the frst BlackSheep application:

python blacksheep_app/server.py

Run the BlackSheep proxy application:

python blacksheep_proxy/server.py

Open example-2.html in a browser and use its forms to test uploading to the server directly, and to the BlackSheep proxy. The result should be the same.

Note

The example proxy in blacksheep_proxy handles memory in the proper way:

• it reads input streams as chunks (never whole in memory)
• it reads response streams from the back-end in chunks (never whole in memory)
