This module is based on cowboy's (php-simple-proxy) source code that basically implements a proxy API that enables javascript code to access data across domain other than the domain of the script's parent document.
When this module is enabled, it add a
_proxy
path to drupal.
To make a request to a domain, simply access http://yourdomain/_proxy/http://targetdomain/path/to/resource
Both GET and POST request are supported.
Currently, the only control you have over request is permissions.
To allow a drupal role to use this API, simple enable
Access the web proxy service
permission for that role
Future releases, will enable you determine the domains that can be accessed through a configuration form.
