# Proxy dev server [![NPM version](https://badge.fury.io/js/proxydevserver.png)](http://badge.fury.io/js/proxydevserver)

The proxydevserver is highly inspired by [KnisterPeters](https://github.com/KnisterPeter) [smaller-dev-server](https://github.com/KnisterPeter/smaller-dev-server). It aims to proxy all requests, intersecting some to serve a fresh set of assets like images, JavaScript or Stylesheets.

Currently it supports the following middelwares:

* LESS.js

* Browserify

## Install

```

$ npm install -g proxydevserver

$ proxydevserver -c config.yml

```

## config.yml

```yml

devserver:

  # hostname of the proxy

  host: 'localhost'

  # port of the proxy

  port: 3000

  # support live reload

  livereload: true

  # serve static files

  staticDir: './static/'

  proxy:

    # host of the target server

    host: 'localhost'

    # port of the target server

    port: 8181

  middlewares:

    # configure less middleware

    less:

      # url to intersect

      src: '/app.css'

      # url to rewrite src

      dest: '/entry.css'

      # less middleware opeions

      options:

        src: './sourcestyles/'

        dest: './static'

        compress: false

        sourceMap: false

        paths:

          - './sourceincludes/'

    # configure browserify middleware

    browserify:

      # url to intersect

      src: '/app.js'

      # url to rewrite src

      dest: './static/entry.js'

      # browserify options

      options:

        sourceMap: true

        transforms:

          - coffeeify

        aliases:

          - "js/ext/jquery.js#jquery"

        paths:

          - './sourceincludes/'

```
