# wiredog
Wiredog monitors the local HTTP traffic by scanning the
network packets. All network interfaces are monitored.
At least one active interface is needed.
When the requests rate for a given period exceeds a
threshold, an alert message is displayed. The top 10
website sections ordered by number of requests are displayed.
Working and tested on Linux. OSX and Windows support is planned.
```
$ wiredog -help
Wiredog is a tool for monitoring network traffic.
Only local HTTP requests are studied.
Administrator permission is required to access network devices.
Consider using sudo on Linux or get admin rights on Windows.
Usage: sudo \path\to\wiredog [flags]
-assembly_debug_log
If true, the github.com/google/gopacket/tcpassembly library will log verbose debugging information (at least one line per packet)
-assembly_memuse_log
If true, the github.com/google/gopacket/tcpassembly library will log information regarding its memory use every once in a while.
-d string
network device name (default "wlp2s0")
-h int
threshold of HTTP request hits (default 2)
-log string
log directory (default ".")
-p duration
time period between traffic checks (default 2m0s)
-t generates test HTTP requests; sets h=2 and p=2s
```

## Thanks
gopacket and termui are cool Go packages. And of course, the Go programming language is beautiful.
