Forwarder Proxy #

Build Status Go Report Card GitHub Repo stars GitHub release

Forwarder is a production-ready, MITM and PAC capable HTTP proxy.
It's used as a core component of Sauce Labs Sauce Connect Proxy. It
is a forward proxy, which means it proxies traffic from clients to
servers (e.g. browsers to websites), and supports CONNECT requests.
It can proxy:

  * HTTP/HTTPS/HTTP2 requests
  * WebSockets (both HTTP and HTTPS)
  * Server Sent Events (SSE)
  * TCP traffic (e.g. SMTP, IMAP, etc.)

Features #

  * Supports upstream HTTP(S) and SOCKS5 proxies
  * Supports PAC files for upstream proxy configuration
  * Supports MITM for HTTPS traffic with automatic certificate
    generation
  * Supports custom DNS servers
  * Supports augmenting requests and responses with headers
  * Supports basic authentication, for websites and proxies

Running #

See the Install instructions for your platform or use the Docker
image. When you have Forwarder installed, you can run it with the
following command:

  * forwarder run - Start HTTP (forward) proxy server
