Error occured while trying to proxy to: localhost:3000/auth/google. http-proxy-middleware
I have react-node-webpack app. I am implementing google oauth with passport.js. I need to use proxy server to make requests to google. this is my setup:
const { createProxyMiddleware } = require("http-proxy-middleware");
app.use(
["/api", "/auth/google"],
createProxyMiddleware({
target: "http://127.0.0.1:5000", //I used localhost instead but same issue
})
);
when i start the server i see the message saying proxy is created.
[HPM] Proxy created: / -> http://127.0.0.1:5000
but when i visit the localhost:3000/auth/google i get this error
[HPM] Error occurred while trying to proxy request /api from localhost:3000 to http://127.0.0.1:5000 (ECONNREFUSED) (https://nodejs.org/api/errors.html#errors_common_system_errors)
