Express Request Proxy

express-request-proxy is an Express.js middleware designed for creating high-performance streaming HTTP reverse proxies. It enables features like transparent caching via Redis, server-side injection of sensitive API keys and headers, custom route parameter handling, and response transformations. The package is built upon the widely used, but now deprecated, `request` HTTP client library. Its last major release was 2.x, with version 2.2.2 being the latest. Given its dependency on the unmaintained `request` library and lack of recent updates (last commit August 2018), the package is effectively abandoned, limiting its viability for new projects and posing potential maintenance and security risks.
