ASP.NET Core Proxies made easy.

Information

Install

dotnet add package AspNetCore.Proxy

Test

Download the source and run.

dotnet restore
dotnet test src/Test/AspNetCore.Proxy.Tests.csproj

Compatibility

.NET Standard 2.0, .NET Core 3.0, .NET Core 5.0 and .NET Core 6.0.

Examples

First, you must add the required services.

public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
{
    ...
    services.AddProxies();
    ...
}

Run a Proxy

You can run a proxy over all endpoints by using RunProxy in your Configure method.

app.RunProxy(proxy => proxy.UseHttp("http://google.com"));

In addition, you can route this proxy depending on the context. You can return a string or ValueTask<string> from the computer.

app.RunProxy(proxy => proxy
    .UseHttp((context, args) =>
    {
        if(context.Request.Path.StartsWithSegments("/should/forward/to/favorite"))
            return "http://myfavoriteserver.com";

        return "http://myhttpserver.com";
    })
    .UseWs((context, args) => "ws://mywsserver.com"));

Routes At Startup

You can define mapped proxy routes in your Configure method at startup.

app.UseRouting();
app.UseEndpoints(endpoints => endpoints.MapControllers());

app.UseProxies(proxies =>
{
    // Bare string.
    proxies.Map("echo/post", proxy => proxy.UseHttp("https://postman-echo.com/post"));

    // Computed to task.
    proxies.Map("api/comments/task/{postId}", proxy => proxy.UseHttp((_, args) => new ValueTask<string>($"https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/comments/{args["postId"]}")));

    // Computed to string.
    proxies.Map("api/comments/string/{postId}", proxy => proxy.UseHttp((_, args) => $"https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/comments/{args["postId"]}"));
});

Route At Startup with Custom HttpClientHandler

ASP.NET Core allows you to configure the behavior of its HTTP client objects by registering a named HttpClient with its own HttpClientHandler, which can then be referred to by name elsewhere. This can be used to support features such as server certificate custom validation. The UseProxies setup supports using such a named client:

proxies.Map( "/api/v1/...", proxy => proxy.UseHttp( 
    (context, args) => ...,
    builder => builder.WithHttpClientName("myClientName")));

...where "myClientName" was previously registered as:

services
    .AddHttpClient("myClientName")
    .ConfigurePrimaryHttpMessageHandler(() => new HttpClientHandler() {
        ServerCertificateCustomValidationCallback = MyValidateCertificateMethod,
        UseDefaultCredentials = true
    });

Route All Unhandled Requests

You can also route all unhandled requests to another server, e.g.

app.UseStatusCodePages(async statusCodeContext =>
{
    var context = statusCodeContext.HttpContext;
    if (context.Response.StatusCode == StatusCodes.Status404NotFound)
    {
        var request = context.Features.Get<IHttpRequestFeature>();
        if (request != null)
        {
            await context.HttpProxyAsync($"https://example.com{request.RawTarget}");
        }
    }
});

Existing Controller

You can define a proxy over a specific endpoint on an existing Controller by leveraging the ProxyAsync extension methods.

public class MyController : Controller
{
    [Route("api/posts/{postId}")]
    public Task GetPosts(int postId)
    {
        return this.HttpProxyAsync($"https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts/{postId}");
    }
}

NOTE: The body of the request should not be consumed by the controller (i.e., the controller should not have any [FromBody] parameters); otherwise, the proxy operation will fail. This is due to the fact that the body is read from a Stream, and that Stream is progressed when the body is read.

You can "catch all" using ASP.NET **rest semantics.

[Route("api/google/{**rest}")]
public Task ProxyCatchAll(string rest)
{
    // If you don't need the query string, then you can remove this.
    var queryString = this.Request.QueryString.Value;
    return this.HttpProxyAsync($"https://google.com/{rest}{queryString}");
}

In addition, you can proxy to WebSocket endpoints.

public class MyController : Controller
{
    [Route("ws")]
    public Task OpenWs()
    {
        return this.WsProxyAsync($"wss://mywsendpoint.com/ws");
    }
}

Uber Example

You can also pass special options that apply when the proxy operation occurs.

public class MyController : Controller
{
    private HttpProxyOptions _httpOptions = HttpProxyOptionsBuilder.Instance
        .WithShouldAddForwardedHeaders(false)
        .WithHttpClientName("MyCustomClient")
        .WithIntercept(async context =>
        {
            if(context.Connection.RemotePort == 7777)
            {
                context.Response.StatusCode = 300;
                await context.Response.WriteAsync("I don't like this port, so I am not proxying this request!");
                return true;
            }

            return false;
        })
        .WithBeforeSend((c, hrm) =>
        {
            // Set something that is needed for the downstream endpoint.
            hrm.Headers.Authorization = new AuthenticationHeaderValue("Basic");

            return Task.CompletedTask;
        })
        .WithAfterReceive((c, hrm) =>
        {
            // Alter the content in  some way before sending back to client.
            var newContent = new StringContent("It's all greek...er, Latin...to me!");
            hrm.Content = newContent;

            return Task.CompletedTask;
        })
        .WithHandleFailure(async (c, e) =>
        {
            // Return a custom error response.
            c.Response.StatusCode = 403;
            await c.Response.WriteAsync("Things borked.");
        }).Build();

    private WsProxyOptions _wsOptions = WsProxyOptionsBuilder.Instance
        .WithBufferSize(8192)
        .WithIntercept(context => new ValueTask<bool>(context.WebSockets.WebSocketRequestedProtocols.Contains("interceptedProtocol")))
        .WithDataIntercept((data, direction, type) =>
        {
            if(direction == WsProxyDataDirection.Downstream && System.Text.Encoding.Default.GetString(data.Array).StartsWith("BAD")) 
                data.Array[0] = (byte)'M';

            return Task.CompletedTask;
        })
        .WithBeforeConnect((context, wso) =>
        {
            wso.AddSubProtocol("myRandomProto");
            return Task.CompletedTask;
        })
        .WithHandleFailure(async (context, e) =>
        {
            context.Response.StatusCode = 599;
            await context.Response.WriteAsync("Failure handled.");
        }).Build();
    
    [Route("api/posts/{postId}")]
    public Task GetPosts(int postId)
    {
        return this.ProxyAsync("http://myhttpendpoint.com", "ws://mywsendpoint.com", _httpOptions, _wsOptions);
    }
}
