Hi, yes all of the pieces (except one, unfortunately, see below) are here:
[uwsgi]
http-socket = :9091
; set async mode + green threads for concurrency (you could use threads
eventually)
async = 100
ugreen = true
; authenticate clients
route-run = basicauth:the proxy server realm,foo:bar
; black list
route-if = equal:${HTTP_HOST};example.com break:403 Forbidden by the proxy
; add special header (just for fun)
route-run = addvar:HTTP_X_CLIENT_PRIVATE_ADDR=${REMOTE_ADDR}
; you could add caching to file or memory here
; here happens the magic (dns must be implemented)
route-run = proxyhttp:${dns[HTTP_HOST]}
The part missing is the translation between hostname and ip addresses. It
is a bit of time i want to develop a c-ares plugin for uWSGI
(https://github.com/unbit/uwsgi/issues/310), if you can help me with
testing i can start working on it today (should not be a big effort)
