# HTTP Shark

An HTTP proxy & GUI for debugging REST API calls.

## How it works

Redirect your live API traffic thru the proxy, each request is recorded in mongodb and can be viewed in realtime via the dashboard.

## Installation

```

git clone http://github.com/joshnuss/http-shark.git

```

## Usage

### Start server

```

MONGO_URL=mongodb://localhost:27017/proxy PORT=80 node .

```

### Add a subdomain

There are two ways to do this:

In your `/etc/hosts` add an entry for the proxy:

```

# you can proxy multiple subdomains at once

127.0.0.1 paypal-proxy.local.dev

127.0.0.1 fedex-proxy.local.dev

```

Or if the proxy is deployed on a host (i.e. example.com), setup a DNS entry for a wildcard domain (i.e. *.example.com).

### Redirect traffic

There are two ways to do this:

Either add a redirection in your `/etc/hosts`

```

paypal-proxy.local.dev api.paypal.com

```

Or find and replace the URL in your code, example:

```coffeescript

http.get('http://api.paypal.com/things')

# becomes:

http.get('http://paypal-proxy.local.dev/things')

```

### Visit the dashboard

The dashboard is available at `http://:/dash`
