https-proxy-socket

Node library to enable opening Socket connections via an HTTPS proxy.

Based on the implementation in https://github.com/TooTallNate/node-https-proxy-agent, but adapted to expose raw Sockets, instead of just http/https requests.

Installation

yarn add @journeyapps/https-proxy-socket

Usage - node-fetch

const { HttpsProxySocket } = require('@journeyapps/https-proxy-socket');
const fetch = require('node-fetch');

// Proxy connection options
const proxy = new HttpsProxySocket('https://my-proxy.test', {
  // Proxy auth and headers may be set here, for example:
  auth: 'myuser:mypassword' // Basic auth
});

const agent = proxy.agent({
  // Additional TLS options for the host may be set here, for example:
  // rejectUnauthorized: false, // Disable TLS checks completely (dangerous)
  // ca: fs.readFileSync('my-ca-cert.pem') // Use a custom CA cert

  // Documentation of the available options is available here:
  //  https://nodejs.org/api/tls.html#tls_new_tls_tlssocket_socket_options
  //  https://nodejs.org/api/tls.html#tls_tls_createsecurecontext_options
});

const response = await fetch('https://myhost.test', { agent: agent });

Usage - Direct socket

const { HttpsProxySocket } = require('@journeyapps/https-proxy-socket');
const proxy = new HttpsProxySocket('https://my-proxy.test');

const socket = await proxy.connect({host: 'myhost.test', port: 1234});

Usage - mssql

const sql = require('mssql')
const { HttpsProxySocket, useProxyForTedious } = require('@journeyapps/https-proxy-socket');

const proxy = new HttpsProxySocket({
  // Same as above
});

// Register the proxy globally for tedious/mssql
useProxyForTedious(proxy);

async function run() {
  // Connect using the proxy
  await sql.connect('mssql://username:[email protected]/mydb?encrypt=true')
  try {
    const result = await sql.query`Select TOP(1) * from mytable`
    console.dir(result);
  } finally {
    await sql.close();
  }
}

run().catch(console.error);
