firestorm is a package providing load-balancing (WIP) and reverse proxying for fiery based web servers as plugins. It supports proxying of both HTTP and WebSocket
# You can install marquee from CRAN
pak::pak("firestorm")
# Or get the development version from Github
pak::pak("thomasp85/firestorm")Below you can see an example of using firestorm with a fiery server. Here we relay all requests to the fiery server to another service running on the same computer.
library(fiery)
library(firestorm)
# create a reverse proxy to another service running on your computer
# at 127.0.0.1:9876
revprox <- ReverseProxy$new("http://127.0.0.1:9876")
# Attach it to a fiery server
app <- Fire$new()
app$attach(revprox)
# Start the server
app$ignite()
