proxyhttp

proxyhttp contains the narrow HTTP transport helpers shared across other packages.

Use it when you want:

• one place to build proxy-oriented http.Transport
• consistent hop-header stripping
• shared forwarded-header policy
• light protocol-detection helpers

Main helpers

Helper	Purpose
NewTransport	Builds a proxy-oriented http.Transport
RemoveHopHeaders	Strips hop-by-hop headers before forwarding
ApplyForwardedHeaders	Applies X-Forwarded-* and Via values
IsWebSocketRequest	Detects likely WS upgrades
IsAbsoluteURL	Detects absolute-URI request strings

Example

header := http.Header{}
header.Set("Connection", "keep-alive")

proxyhttp.ApplyForwardedHeaders(header, proxyhttp.ForwardedHeaderConfig{
  ClientIP: "127.0.0.1",
  Proto:    "https",
  Via:      "proxykit",
})
proxyhttp.RemoveHopHeaders(header)

Keep it narrow

proxyhttp should stay a supporting package, not grow into a second transport layer. If logic starts owning routes, storage, or capture policy, it probably belongs somewhere else.
