caddy: Run a reverse proxy server.
$ caddy reverse-proxy --from :${80} --to localhost:${8000}
try on your machine
The command "caddy reverse-proxy --from :${80} --to localhost:${8000}" is used to set up a reverse proxy configuration using Caddy server.
Here's a breakdown of each component in the command:
- "caddy" is the command to run the Caddy server.
- "reverse-proxy" is the directive or subcommand that specifies the desired functionality in Caddy.
- "--from :${80}" sets the source address and port for the reverse proxy. The
:${80}
syntax indicates it will listen on port 80, and the--from
flag indicates the source address to accept requests from. - "--to localhost:${8000}" sets the target address and port to forward the incoming requests. In this case, it indicates that the proxy server (Caddy) should forward the requests to a local server running on the same machine (localhost) on port 8000.
In summary, this command sets up a reverse proxy using Caddy, which listens on port 80 and forwards incoming requests to a local server running on port 8000.
