It seems to be pretty slow. If someone gives me $$$$$/month I’ll host one that goes fast. The fastest. Faster than fast.

I have a pretty good server but I don’t know how to make a proxy. Teach me? :wink:

That specific proxy blocks (almost) all requests directed to the catalog:
https://rprxy.xyz/proxy/blocked.json, https://rprxy.xyz/proxy/re_blocked.json

Ah. I believe that’s because they got spammed with traffic.

Side note: I would not recommend using any free proxy for serious projects. Better to host your own somewhere so you have control over it, and the threshold of traffic that it will hold is more predictable that way.

Everyone can host the api’s that is on rprxy.xyz xD

The gist of a proxy is to act as a middle-man between a client and a server, filtering through any requests and responses. You can do this in NodeJS super easily with the node-http-proxy library:

const httpProxy = require("http-proxy");

httpProxy.createProxyServer({
	target: "http://api.roblox.com"
}).listen(8080);

That will create a proxy server on port 8080. Now you can hit any ‘api.roblox.com’ stuff from that server. For instance, if I run that code on my computer, I can run the following GET request:

localhost:8080/users/308165

And that will return info on my user.

Wow, that seems easy enough. Thanks! I’ll mess around with this and other API subdomains when I get home from school.

You should start a Patreon. I’d totally pay for something like this.

You can also host web apps on https://heroku.com fyi

Hosting is free, but if you want to increase your limits, you’ll have to pay.

Also, if you are after most of the proxy’s hosted on http://rprxy.xyz/
I’m also hosting them on my website below.

That wouldn’t really work for a catalog proxy though; as it uses search.roblox.com instead of api.roblox.com; in which when used instead the search function will just serve as a redirection to roblox. Leaving you where you started (as httpservice does not accept roblox links).

You could always run a second proxy in the same code, and just make it listen on a different port

Can you please elaborate on how to do it?

Your website doesn’t have any catalog api

I currently only host this for the catalog

Yes, but it can’t look for roblox made hats and stuff.
