Go HTTP proxy server library

Package httpproxy provides a customizable HTTP proxy; supports HTTP, HTTPS through CONNECT. And also provides HTTPS connection using "Man in the Middle" style attack.

It's easy to use. httpproxy.Proxy implements Handler interface of net/http package to offer http.ListenAndServe function.

Installing

go get -u github.com/go-httpproxy/httpproxy
# or
go get -u gopkg.in/httpproxy.v1

Usage

Library has two significant structs: Proxy and Context.

Proxy struct

// Proxy defines parameters for running an HTTP Proxy. It implements
// http.Handler interface for ListenAndServe function. If you need, you must
// set Proxy struct before handling requests.
type Proxy struct {
	// Session number of last proxy request.
	SessionNo int64

	// RoundTripper interface to obtain remote response.
	// By default, it uses &http.Transport{}.
	Rt http.RoundTripper

	// Certificate key pair.
	Ca tls.Certificate

	// User data to use free.
	UserData interface{}

	// Error callback.
	OnError func(ctx *Context, where string, err *Error, opErr error)

	// Accept callback. It greets proxy request like ServeHTTP function of
	// http.Handler.
	// If it returns true, stops processing proxy request.
	OnAccept func(ctx *Context, w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) bool

	// Auth callback. If you need authentication, set this callback.
	// If it returns true, authentication succeeded.
	OnAuth func(ctx *Context, authType string, user string, pass string) bool

	// Connect callback. It sets connect action and new host.
	// If len(newhost) > 0, host changes.
	OnConnect func(ctx *Context, host string) (ConnectAction ConnectAction,
		newHost string)

	// Request callback. It greets remote request.
	// If it returns non-nil response, stops processing remote request.
	OnRequest func(ctx *Context, req *http.Request) (resp *http.Response)

	// Response callback. It greets remote response.
	// Remote response sends after this callback.
	OnResponse func(ctx *Context, req *http.Request, resp *http.Response)

	// If ConnectAction is ConnectMitm, it sets chunked to Transfer-Encoding.
	// By default, true.
	MitmChunked bool

	// HTTP Authentication type. If it's not specified (""), uses "Basic".
	// By default, "".
	AuthType string
}

Context struct

// Context keeps context of each proxy request.
type Context struct {
	// Pointer of Proxy struct handled this context.
	// It's using internally. Don't change in Context struct!
	Prx *Proxy

	// Session number of this context obtained from Proxy struct.
	SessionNo int64

	// Sub session number of processing remote connection.
	SubSessionNo int64

	// Original Proxy request.
	// It's using internally. Don't change in Context struct!
	Req *http.Request

	// Original Proxy request, if proxy request method is CONNECT.
	// It's using internally. Don't change in Context struct!
	ConnectReq *http.Request

	// Action of after the CONNECT, if proxy request method is CONNECT.
	// It's using internally. Don't change in Context struct!
	ConnectAction ConnectAction

	// Remote host, if proxy request method is CONNECT.
	// It's using internally. Don't change in Context struct!
	ConnectHost string

	// User data to use free.
	UserData interface{}
}
