astro dev proxy

Edit this page
Built with
The behavior and format of this command are the same for both Astro and Astro Private Cloud.

Manage the built-in reverse proxy for local Airflow development.

The built-in reverse proxy routes <project>.localhost:6563 to the correct local Airflow instance, letting you run multiple Airflow projects simultaneously without manually configuring ports. The proxy starts automatically when you run astro dev start and stops when the last project stops.

When working in a git worktree, the hostname includes both the worktree name and the repository name: <worktree>.<repo>.localhost:6563.

To disable the proxy for a single start command, use astro dev start --no-proxy.

astro dev proxy status

Show all running Airflow projects and their proxy routes.

$astro dev proxy status

If the proxy daemon has stopped unexpectedly, this command automatically restarts it and restores all routes from ~/.astro/proxy/routes.json.

astro dev proxy stop

Stop the reverse proxy daemon.

$astro dev proxy stop
