__mitmproxy__ is an interactive SSL-capable intercepting HTTP proxy. It lets
|
|
|
|
|
you to observe, modify and replay requests and responses on the fly. The
|
|
|
|
|
underlying library that mitmproxy is built on can also be used to do these
|
|
|
|
|
things programmatically.

By default, mitmproxy starts up with a mutt-like interactive curses interface -
|

|
|
|
the built-in help page (which you can view by pressing "?") will tell you
|
|
|
|
|
everything you need to know. Note that requests and responses are stored
|
|
|
|
|
in-memory until you delete them, so leaving mitmproxy running indefinitely or
|
|
|
|
|
requesting very large amounts of data through it is a bad idea.

The first time mitmproxy is started, it will generate a bogus SSL certificate
|
2011-02-20 23:11:41 +00:00
|
|
|
authority (the default location is ~/.mitmproxy/ca.pem). This CA is used to
|
|
|
|
|
generate certificates for SSL requests on-the-fly. To avoid the hassle of
|
|
|
|
|
having to accept these certificates individually, you can add the certificate
|
|
|
|
|
authority to your browser or globally to your system.

|
|
|
* The curses interface relies on version 0.9.8 or newer of the

|
2010-02-16 04:09:07 +00:00

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
