How to set proxy for backend in angular 2 cli?

Question

Angular

I use openserver as backend.
The essence of the error: when going to the address localhost:4200/api, an error occurs Object Not Found Error 404
Creating a proxy.conf.json file with the content:

{
  "/api": {
    "target": "http://test.ru",
    "secure": false
  }
}

and running via ng serve --proxy-config proxy.conf.json did NOT help. I didn't find a solution on stackoverflow either.
How to solve the problem?

Answer 1

If the request from localhost:4200/api/foo/barshould fly to http://test.ru/foo/bar- then you need to add a line. And I would like to add one more.

{
  "/api": {
    "target": "http://test.ru",
    "pathRewrite": { "/api": "" }, // this line
    "changeOrigin": true, // and this too
    "secure": false
  }
}

Answer 2

If I understood the problem correctly, you just need to configure apache using the .htaccess
file
