2. Cache filetypes
3. Cache specific pages
4. Docker Image available (Dockerfile)

These instructions will cover usage information about the go application and for the docker container image. This reverse proxy only supports HTTP (no HTTPS support for target). Speed up TTFB up to 1 - 15 ms.

In order to run this container you'll need docker installed.

Start a simple reverse proxy container to localhost:8080

docker run -p 80:80 -e PROXY_PORT=80 -e PROXY_TARGET=https://localhost:8080 -e CONFIG_FILE= /config/cache.config --name gocacheproxy switzerchees/gocacheproxy

Link the reverse proxy with a webapp for caching between

docker run -p 80:80 -e PROXY_TARGET=https://wordpress:80 --link wordpress:wordpress --name gocacheproxy switzerchees/gocacheproxy

1. /healthcheck - Check if the webserver is running (httpstatus 200 success)
2. /flushcache - flush the actual cache
3. /cacheactive - activate or deactivate the cache functionality (POST allows toggle)
