• Management API and health check code now run on the manager process only.
• Support for TLS connections to backend.
• Allow connecting to backend via hostname instead of only IP
• Update to hyper 0.11

Static binaries

Version 0.1.0 release

Initial release of the alacrity reverse proxy. This is not production ready, but feature complete enough for people to start playing with. Some highlights:

• The proxy uses the hyper (tokio version) for http semantics.
• Conforms to many RFC 7230 proxy requirements.
• Uses an API to add/remove servers from pool.
• Servers in pool are health checked by sending a request to / every 1 second.
