tproxy
------

tproxy is a simple TCP routing proxy (layer 7) built on
Gevent_ that lets you configure the routine logic in Python. It's heavily
inspired from `proxy machine `_
but have some unique features like the pre-fork worker model borrowed to
Gunicorn_.

Instalation
-----------

tproxy requires **Python 2.x >= 2.5**. Python 3.x support is planned.

::

$ pip install gevent
$ pip install tproxy

To install from source::

$ git clone git://github.com/benoitc/tproxy.git
$ cd tproxy
$ pip install -r requirements.txt
$ python setup.py install

Test your installation by running the command line::

$ tproxy examples/transparent.py

And go on http://127.0.0.1:5000 , you should see the google homepage.

Usage
-----

::

$ tproxy -h

Usage: tproxy [OPTIONS] script_path

Options:
--version show program's version number and exit
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--log-file=FILE The log file to write to. [-]
--log-level=LEVEL The granularity of log outputs. [info]
--log-config=FILE The log config file to use. [None]
-n STRING, --name=STRING A base to use with setproctitle for process naming.
[None]
-D, --daemon Daemonize the tproxy process. [False]
-p FILE, --pid=FILE A filename to use for the PID file. [None]
-u USER, --user=USER Switch worker processes to run as this user. [501]
-g GROUP, --group=GROUP
Switch worker process to run as this group. [20]
-m INT, --umask=INT A bit mask for the file mode on files written by
tproxy. [0]
-b ADDRESS, --bind=ADDRESS The socket to bind. [127.0.0.1:8000]
--backlog=INT The maximum number of pending connections. [2048]
--ssl-keyfile=STRING Ssl key file [None]
--ssl-certfile=STRING Ssl ca certs file. contains concatenated
"certification [None]
--ssl-ca-certs=STRING Ssl ca certs file. contains concatenated
"certification [None]
--ssl-cert-reqs=INT Specifies whether a certificate is required from the
other [0]
-w INT, --workers=INT The number of worker process for handling requests. [1]
--worker-connections=INT The maximum number of simultaneous clients per worker.
[1000]
-t INT, --timeout=INT Workers silent for more than this many seconds are
killed and restarted. [30]

Signals
-------
::

QUIT - Graceful shutdown. Stop accepting connections immediatly
and wait until all connections close

TERM - Fast shutdown. Stop accepting and close all conections
after 10s.
INT - Same as TERM

HUP - Graceful reloading. Reload all workers with the new code
in your routing script.

USR2 - Upgrade tproxy on the fly

TTIN - Increase the number of worker from 1

TTOU - Decrease the number of worker from 1

Exemple of routing script
-------------------------

::

import re
re_host = re.compile("Host:\s*(.*)\r\n")

class CouchDBRouter(object):
# look at the routing table and return a couchdb node to use
def lookup(self, name):
""" do something """

router = CouchDBRouter()

# Perform content-aware routing based on the stream data. Here, the
# Host header information from the HTTP protocol is parsed to find the
# username and a lookup routine is run on the name to find the correct
# couchdb node. If no match can be made yet, do nothing with the
# connection. (make your own couchone server...)

def proxy(data):
matches = re_host.findall(data)
if matches:
host = router.lookup(matches.pop())
return {"remote": host}
return None

Example SOCKS4 Proxy in 18 Lines
--------------------------------

::

import socket
import struct

def proxy(data):
if len(data) < 9:
return

command = ord(data[1])
ip, port = socket.inet_ntoa(data[4:8]), struct.unpack(">H", data[2:4])[0]
idx = data.index("\0")
userid = data[8:idx]

if command == 1: #connect
return dict(remote="%s:%s" % (ip, port),
reply="\0\x5a\0\0\0\0\0\0",
data=data[idx:])
else:
return {"close": "\0\x5b\0\0\0\0\0\0"}

Example of returning a file
---------------------------

::

import os

WELCOME_FILE = os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), "welcome.txt")

def proxy(data):
fno = os.open(WELCOME_FILE, os.O_RDONLY)
return {
"file": fno,
"reply": "HTTP/1.1 200 OK\r\n\r\n"
}

Valid return values
-------------------

* { "remote:": string or tuple } - String is the host:port of the
server that will be proxied.
* { "remote": String, "data": String} - Same as above, but
send the given data instead.
* { "remote": String, "data": String, "reply": String} - Same as above,
but reply with given data back to the client
* None - Do nothing.
* { "close": True } - Close the connection.
* { "close": String } - Close the connection after sending
the String.
* { "file": String } - Return a file specify by the file path and close
the connection.
* { "file": String, "reply": String } - Return a file specify by the
file path and close the connection.
* { "file": Int, "reply": String} - Same as above but reply with given
data back to the client
* { "file": Int } - Return a file specify by
its file descriptor
* { "file": Int, "reply": String} - Same as above
but reply with given data back to the client

Notes:
++++++

If `sendfile `_ API available it
will be used to send a file with "file" command.

The **file** command can have 2 optionnnal parameters:

- offset: argument specifies where to begin in the file.
- nbytes: specifies how many bytes of the file should be sent

To **handle ssl for remote connection** you can add these optionals
arguments:

- ssl: True or False, if you want to connect with ssl
- ssl_args: dict, optionals ssl arguments. Read the `ssl documentation
`_ for more informations about them.

Handle errors
-------------

You can easily handling error by adding a **proxy_error** function in
your script::

def proxy_error(client, e):
pass

This function get the ClientConnection instance (current connection) as
first arguments and the error exception in second argument.

Rewrite requests & responses
----------------------------

Main goal of tproxy is to allows you to route transparently tcp to your
applications. But some case you want to do more. For example you need in
HTTP 1.1 to change the Host header to make sure remote HTTP server will
know what to do if uses virtual hosting.

To do that, add a **rewrite_request** function in your function to
simply rewrite clienrt request and **rewrite_response** to rewrite the
remote response. Both functions take a tproxy.rewrite.RewriteIO instance
which is based on io.RawIOBase class.

See the `httprewrite.py `_ example for an example of HTTP rewrite.
