# Behind a Proxy { #behind-a-proxy }

In many situations, you would use a **proxy** like Traefik or Nginx in front of your FastAPI app.

These proxies could handle HTTPS certificates and other things.

## Proxy Forwarded Headers { #proxy-forwarded-headers }

    Note over Proxy: Proxy fügt Forwarded-Header hinzu

    Client->>Proxy: HTTPS Request<br/>Host: mysuperapp.com<br/>Path: /items

    Note over Proxy: Proxy adds forwarded headers

```mermaid

    participant Client as Cliente
    participant Proxy as Proxy/Load Balancer
    participant Server as Servidor de FastAPI

    Client->>Proxy: HTTPS Request<br/>Host: mysuperapp.com<br/>Path: /items

    Note over Proxy: El proxy añade headers reenviados

```mermaid
sequenceDiagram
    participant Client as Клиент
    participant Proxy as Прокси/Балансировщик нагрузки
    participant Server as FastAPI-сервер

    Client->>Proxy: HTTPS-запрос<br/>Host: mysuperapp.com<br/>Path: /items

    Note over Proxy: Прокси-сервер добавляет пересылаемые заголовки

Todo este proceso de renovación, mientras aún se sirve la aplicación, es una de las principales razones por las que querrías tener un **sistema separado para gestionar el HTTPS** con un TLS Termination Proxy en lugar de simplemente usar los certificados TLS con el servidor de aplicaciones directamente (por ejemplo, Uvicorn).

## Headers reenviados por el proxy { #proxy-forwarded-headers }

        Proxy proxy = repository.getProxy();
        if (proxy != null) {
            if (proxy.getUserName() != null) {
                int hash = (proxy.getUserName() + proxy.getPassword()).hashCode();
                buffer.append(hash).append('@');
            }
            buffer.append(proxy.getHost()).append(':').append(proxy.getPort()).append('>');
        }

Y debe haber algo encargado de **renovar los certificados HTTPS**, podría ser el mismo componente o algo diferente.

### Herramientas de Ejemplo para HTTPS { #example-tools-for-https }

Algunas de las herramientas que podrías usar como Proxy de Terminación TLS son:

* Traefik

# Adicionando WSGI - Flask, Django, entre outros { #including-wsgi-flask-django-others }

Como você viu em [Subaplicações - Montagens](sub-applications.md){.internal-link target=_blank} e [Atrás de um Proxy](behind-a-proxy.md){.internal-link target=_blank}, você pode montar aplicações WSGI.

Para isso, você pode utilizar o `WSGIMiddleware` para encapsular a sua aplicação WSGI, como por exemplo Flask, Django, etc.

## Usando `WSGIMiddleware` { #using-wsgimiddleware }

# Including WSGI - Flask, Django, others { #including-wsgi-flask-django-others }

You can mount WSGI applications as you saw with [Sub Applications - Mounts](sub-applications.md){.internal-link target=_blank}, [Behind a Proxy](behind-a-proxy.md){.internal-link target=_blank}.

For that, you can use the `WSGIMiddleware` and use it to wrap your WSGI application, for example, Flask, Django, etc.
