PeerSoxServer

Examples

Minimal

// Start a server on port 3000, using redis-mock for storage.
// This is not meant for production use.

const PeerSoxServer = require('peersox/lib/peersox.server.js').default
new PeerSoxServer()

Redis server with express-bruteforce

// Connect and use a redis server for storage and provide an express
// middleware that prevents brute force attacks on the server.

const PeerSoxServer = require('peersox/lib/peersox.server.js').default
const ExpressBrute = require('express-brute')
const redis = require('redis')
const BruteRedis = require('express-brute-redis')

// Create a new redis client.
const redisClient = redis.createClient('//localhost:6379')

// Init the PeerSox server when the redis client is ready.
redisClient.on('ready', function () {
  console.log('Connected to Redis at')

  // Use the redis client as the store for express-brute.
  const bruteStore = new BruteRedis({
    client: redisClient
  })

  // Instantiate the express-brute middleware.
  const bruteforce = new ExpressBrute(bruteStore, {
    freeRetries: 20
  })

  // Instantiate the PeerSox server.
  new PeerSoxServer({
    storage: redisClient,
    middleware: [
      bruteforce.prevent
    ],
    allowOrigins: [
      'http://localhost:8080',
      'https://example.com'
    ]
  })
