we need more proxy, captain!

jwter

Pronounced ʤɒtə | jot-ter. A reverse proxy that adds a JWT header to an HTTP request.

Setup

For dev:

1. You need the Go compiler set up
2. Clone this repo into go/src/ (location depends on how you set Go up)
3. Run $> make certs to generate signing and public certificates
4. Run $> make conf and answer the prompts (to skip interactive mode, set each var in terminal, e.g. $> proxy_port=1337 ... make conf)
   • Alternatively, create a .env file with the following vars in jwter/ directory:

   PROXY_PORT=<port to run jwter on>
   APP_URL=<url:port to proxy requests to>
   SIGNING_CERT=<absolute path to cert used for signing jwt>
   PUBLIC_CERT=<absolute path to cert used for decoding jwt>
   USER_ID=<user id>
   

5. To run in Docker, run $> make docker-up

Just for use:

1. Download jwter executable or clone repo - whatever floats your boat
2. Set up .env as seen above in same directory as executable
3. In terminal run /path/to/jwter
4. To run in Docker, run $> make docker-up

TODO

• refactor / modularize
• improve logging output
• get some sleep
• make this a CLI?
