ProxyServer: forward request to the node itself
Context
Not all the endpoints of octez-node are implemented by octez-proxy-server. Some aren't doable at all... For now, when the proxy-server was not able to tackle a request it would send back to the client to try to reach the node directly, which impose that the node is also publicly available... With this patch the proxy-server contacts the node itself and return the reply from the node! So only the proxy-server needs to have a direct acces to the node.
Manually testing the MR
- Launch a sandbox node
octez-proxy-server --endpoint http://localhost:18730 --rpc-addr http://0.0.0.0:8832- do stuff with
octez-client -e http://localhost:8832and/or fire RPCs withcurl/wget/whatever
