/*
* This example shows how mongoose can be used as a reverse
* proxy for another http server.
*
* A common setup is to have a frontend web server that delegates
* some urls to a backend web server.
*
* In this example we create two webservers. The frontend listens on port
* 8000 and servers a static file and forwards any call matching the /api prefix
* to the backend.
*
* The backend listens on port 8001 and replies a simple JSON object which
* shows the request URI that the backend http server receives.
*
* Things to try out:
*
* curl http://localhost:8000/
* curl http://localhost:8000/api
* curl http://localhost:8000/api/foo
* curl http://localhost:8001/foo
*
* The reverse proxy functionality is enabled via the url rewrite functionality:
*
* ```
* s_frontend_server_opts.url_rewrites =
* "/api=http://localhost:8001,/=frontend/hello.html";
* ```
*
* This example maps the /api to a remote http server, and / to a
* specific file on the filesystem.
*
* Obviously you can use any http server as the backend, we spawn
* another web server from the same process in order to make the example easy
* to run.
