{"library":"http-forward","type":"library","category":null,"description":"http-forward is a minimalist Node.js library designed to proxy incoming HTTP requests to a specified target URL. It functions by attaching a `target` property to the `req.forward` object, allowing for basic request redirection within a Node.js `http.createServer` instance. This package is extremely lightweight and relies solely on Node.js's built-in `http` module. However, with its last publish date over ten years ago (version 0.1.3) and no apparent ongoing development, it is considered abandoned. It does not support modern JavaScript module syntax (ESM), HTTP/2, or contemporary security practices, and has no release cadence. Users are strongly advised to consider actively maintained and more feature-rich alternatives such as `http-proxy` or `http-proxy-middleware` for any new or existing projects requiring HTTP proxying in Node.js.","language":"javascript","status":"abandoned","version":"0.1.3","tags":["javascript","forward","http","proxy","incoming","reverse"],"last_verified":"Wed May 27","install":[{"cmd":"npm install http-forward","imports":["const forward = require('http-forward')"]},{"cmd":"yarn add http-forward","imports":[]},{"cmd":"pnpm add http-forward","imports":[]}],"homepage":null,"github":"https://github.com/h2non/http-forward","docs":null,"changelog":null,"pypi":null,"npm":"https://www.npmjs.com/package/http-forward","openapi_spec":null,"status_page":null,"smithery":null,"compatibility":{"summary":{"python_range":"18–22","success_rate":0,"avg_install_s":null,"avg_import_s":null,"wheel_type":null},"url":"https://checklist.day/v1/registry/http-forward/compatibility"}}
