How does http-proxy.createServer work?

http-proxy.createServer is a function in Node.js that creates a new HTTP proxy server object, which can be used to proxy HTTP(S) requests to a target server.

The createServer function returns an instance of the http.Server object, which can be used to listen to incoming requests, and the proxy server instance also has various methods and events for handling and customizing the proxy behavior.

const http = require("http");
const httpProxy = require("http-proxy");

const targetUrl = "http://localhost:3000"; // URL to which requests will be proxied

const proxy = httpProxy.createServer({
  target: targetUrl,
  changeOrigin: true, // Changes the origin of the host header to the target URL
});

http
  .createServer(function (req, res) {
    proxy.web(req, res);
  })
  .listen(8000);

This code creates an HTTP server that listens on port 8000 and proxies all incoming requests to the target URL http://localhost:3000. The http-proxy module provides a flexible and powerful way to create HTTP proxies in Node.js.
