#HTTPCeption

HTTPCeption is a HTTP proxy that allows the interception of HTTP requests and responses for debugging purposes. During normal operation it acts as a transparent proxy, but once you connect to it over a web interface, you are able to analyze the network traffic step by step.

Install godep executable and make sure it is in your path

go get github.com/tools/godep

then build

make

Usage of ./httpception:
  -debug=":9999": Address to listen for debugging connection (ex: :9999)
  -listen="": Address to listen for new connections (ex: localhost:3333)
  -send="": Address to forward traffic to (ex: www.w3.org:80)

Example: forward traffic from localhost to http://www.w3.org/

./httpception -listen="localhost:3333" -send="www.w3.org:80"

Now in your browser navigate to

http://localhost:3333

and in a separate window navigate to the debugging interface

http://localhost:9999

You should see a trail of requests coming through:

• Support Host header rewriting
• Support modifying requests and responses in the debugger
• Support HTTPS
• Allow replaying of requests
• Add ability to save / load requests
• Remember requests and be able to navigate them (previous/next)
