port-proxy —— Port Proxy Tool

简体中文 | English

Description

A lightweight port proxy tool that can forward traffic from one port to another, supporting TCP and UDP protocols, and can limit the transmission rate.

Getting Started

Install dependencies

npm i port-proxy

Import

import { PortProxy } from 'port-proxy'

Usage

// Create a TCP port proxy instance
const proxy = new PortProxy({
  // Source, new proxy service
  source: '127.0.0.1',
  sourcePort: 3001,
  // Target, original service being proxied
  target: '127.0.0.1',
  targetPort: 3000,
  // Whether to output detailed logs
  verbose: false,
  // Protocol type: 'tcp' or 'udp'
  protocol: 'tcp',
  // Single TCP service rate limit, unit B/s, rate limit has 5% fluctuation for each TCP connection
  limiteRate: 400 * 1024
})

// Start the proxy service
await proxy.start()

// Check if the proxy is running
const isRunning = proxy.isRunning()

// Get proxy status
const status = proxy.getStatus()

// Get active connection count
const connectionCount = proxy.getConnectionCount()

// Stop the proxy service
await proxy.stop()

Explanation

PortProxy Class

Constructor

    Target port.

  • verbose: boolean type, optional

    Whether to output detailed logs, default is false.

  • protocol: 'tcp' | 'udp' type, optional

    Protocol to use, default is 'tcp'.

  • limiteRate: number type, optional

    Single TCP service rate limit, unit B/s, rate limit has 5% fluctuation for each TCP connection. Default is 0 (no limit).

Methods

start() Promise<void>

Start the port forwarding proxy.

stop() Promise<void>

Stop the port forwarding proxy.

getStatus() Object

Get the proxy status.

Return value:

{
  listening: boolean, // Whether it is listening
  connections: number, // Current number of connections
  config: ProxyOptions // Current configuration
}

isRunning() boolean

Check if the proxy is running.

getConnectionCount() number

Get the number of active connections.

Command Line Usage

This library can also be used as a command line tool. After installing the package globally, you can use it directly:

npm install -g port-proxy
portproxy --source 127.0.0.1 --source-port 3001 --target 127.0.0.1 --target-port 3000 --verbose --protocol tcp --limite-rate 409600

Or use it in your project:

npx port-proxy --source 127.0.0.1 --source-port 3001 --target 127.0.0.1 --target-port 3000

Options

• --source <IP>: Listening address
• --source-port <port>: Listening port
• --target <IP>: Target address
• --target-port <port>: Target port
• --protocol <protocol>: Protocol (default: tcp)
• --verbose: Detailed output mode
• --limite-rate <rate>: Single TCP service rate limit, unit B/s, default is 0 (no limit)
• --help: Display help information

Example

portproxy --source 192.168.196.2 --source-port 14491 --target 127.0.0.1 --target-port 14490
