Unable to use path rewrite to external endpoint.
using vanila http-proxy-middleware it is possible using router
https://github.com/chimurai/http-proxy-middleware/blob/c935888ea7135365bea3c4c81e4ffe48f359a670/examples/response-interceptor/index.js#L39

Pseudo code

// src/pages/api/demo.ts
export default (req: NextApiRequest, res: NextApiResponse) =>
    httpProxyMiddleware(req, res, {
        timeout: 3000,
        target: 'http://localhost:8080',
        router: {
            '/api/demo': 'https://google.com',
        },
        pathRewrite: {
            '/api/demo': '',
        },
    }).catch(async (error) => {
        res.end(error.message);
        console.log(error);
    });

As a workaround i create multiple files with different target option

Hi @FDiskas

Unfortunately, there are too many features that overlap with httpProxyMiddleware, so I think it would be better to provide guidance on how to use httpProxyMiddleware rather than adding new features anymore. (httpProxyMiddleware provides more features)

As an alternative, try httpProxyMiddleware and the source code below.

import {createProxyMiddleware} from'http-proxy-middleware';

export default createProxyMiddleware({
         timeout: 3000,
         target:'http://localhost:8080',
         router: {
             '/api/demo':'https://google.com',
         },
         pathRewrite: {
             '/api/demo':'',
         },
     });

Thanks 😀
