Open Source Python Reverse Proxy Servers

nginx-proxy sets up a container running nginx and docker-gen. docker-gen generates reverse proxy configs for nginx and reloads nginx when containers are started and stopped. The containers being proxied must expose the port to be proxied, either by using the EXPOSE directive in their Dockerfile or by using the --expose flag to docker run or docker create and be in the same network. By default, if you don't pass the --net flag when your nginx-proxy container is created, it will only be attached to the default bridge network. This means that it will not be able to connect to containers on networks other than bridge.

SCFProxy is a tool to implement HTTP proxy, SOCKS proxy, and reverse proxy based on cloud function and API gateway provided by several cloud service providers.

A flexible and extensible Python identd which can act as a reverse proxy, forwarding requests to other machines on the network. Based on Twisted. Currently only supports Linux, but hopefully will extend to other platforms.
