This is very much an expermintal component and plugin developers shouldn't expect the API to be stable at this point. This allows plugin developers to ensure HTTP access to a single port is routes to various ports internally based on the Galaxy session of the user accessing the resource. It is frustrating that I need to use a node-based component for this but after nights of trying I was unable to reproduce a proxy that works both dynamically and with web sockets in any Python based web framework. I tried twisted, uwsgi, tornado. My decision to use node was buttressed by the IPython team utilizing the same framework for the same reasons for their work on Juypter - https://github.com/jupyter/jupyterhub. This is still very much a work in progress but it was languishing in my github repository and I am want to get it committed so community can hack on it and suggest (or supply) improvements. TODO - Replace file operations with sqlite database + write file lock (for multi-process Galaxies). - Document configuration. - Update galaxy-ipython to support something like proxy-prefix - configure along with the rest of this.
