# traffic_router
Routes request into several web applications. 

Also, an **Async** version is available [here](https://github.com/mohankumaranna/traffic_router_async).  

## Goal
Intended to avoid Apache web server for such routing.

## Setup
Following three files are needed to configure and run this router:

    1. Sites.json - To update web application URLs, PORTs 
    2. Port-Forwarding.txt - To enable and complete port forwarding processes described in it
    3. traffic_router.service - To run this router as a service


## Example

This traffic router is used in routing following two web applications; written in Rust/hyper; running in a digital ocean's droplet:  
  1. [find latest NAV site](http://nav.eastgate.in)  
  2. [login app](http://login_app.eastgate.in)  

__Note__: It works for http.  For https, use __NGINX__.  Refer [https-demo](https://github.com/mohankumaranna/https_demo) for steps to be followed for _nginx_.
