How do I properly create a transparent HTTPS proxy using node?

I am using the npm http-proxy package which claims to help with this, however I am completely unable to get it to work. So far I only have success creating a transparent HTTP proxy, however, when it is about to create a transparent HTTPS proxy, nothing happens.

I am using an android device configured to use a proxy with a port where the proxy is expected to be configured but nothing starts up on the nodejs side. Only if I have configured an HTTP proxy then everything works.

This is the code I have for HTTPS:

var https = require('https');
var fs = require('fs');
var httpProxy = require('http-proxy');

var options = {
    key: fs.readFileSync('./client-key.pem', 'utf8'),
    cert: fs.readFileSync('./client-cert.pem', 'utf8')
};

var proxy = httpProxy.createProxyServer({
    ssl: options
});

https.createServer(options, function (req, res) {
    console.log("new", req.url);
    proxy.web(req, res, {
        target: req.url
    });
}).listen(8000);

      

        
        
        
      

    

If I use createServer from the http package, it works for http calls (as in what calls the callback), however it is not for https with this instruction. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?

PS: I don't care if I need to use a different npm package.
