在Python的Tornado框架中实现简单的在线代理的教程

实现代理的方式很多种,流行的web服务器也大都有代理的功能,比如http://www.tornadoweb.cn用的就是nginx的代理功能做的tornadoweb官网的镜像。

最近,我在开发一个移动运用(以下简称APP)的后台程序(Server),该运用需要调用到另一平台产品(Platform)的API。对于这个系统来说,可选的一种实现方式方式是APP同时跟Server&Platform两者交互;另一种则在Server端封装掉Platform的API,APP只和Server交互。显然后一种方式的系统架构会清晰些,APP编程时也就相对简单。那么如何在Server端封装Platform的API呢,我首先考虑到的就是用代理的方式来实现。碰巧最近Tornado邮件群组里有人在讨论using Tornado as a proxy,贴主提到的运用场景跟我这碰到的场景非常的相似,我把原帖的代码做了些整理和简化,源代码如下:

    headers["Host"] = host
 
    try:

    else:
      self.set_status(response.code)
      for header in ("Date", "Cache-Control", "Server", "Content-Type", "Location"):
        v = response.headers.get(header)
        if v:
          self.set_header(header, v)
      if response.body:
        self.write(response.body)
      self.finish()
 
def main():
  tornado.options.parse_command_line()
  application = tornado.web.Application([
    (r"/.*", ProxyHandler),
  ])
  http_server = tornado.httpserver.HTTPServer(application)
  http_server.listen(options.port)
  tornado.ioloop.IOLoop.instance().start()
 
if __name__ == "__main__":
  main()

运行上面的代码后,访问 http://localhost:8888/ 将会完整显示飞龙博客的首页,即代理访问了http://feilong.me/的内容。

我考虑用程序的方式来做代理而不是直接用Nginx来做代理,其中一点是考虑到用程序可以很容易的控制Platform的哪些API是需要代理的,而哪些是要屏蔽掉的,还有哪些可能是要重写的(比如Server的login可能不能直接代理Platform的login,但却要调用到Platform的login API)。

以上这段代码只是做了简单的页面内容代理,并没有对页面进行进一步的解析处理,比如链接替换等,这些就交个有兴趣的朋友去开发了。基于以上这段代码,将其扩展一下,是完全可以实现一个完整的在线代理程序的。

这段代码我已放到了我的实验项目里,见https://bitbucket.org/felinx/labs,我将会放更多类似于这样的实验性质的小项目到这个repository里来,有兴趣的朋友可以关注一下。
