Based on the excellent and simple pymiproxy by Nadeem Douba. https://github.com/allfro/pymiproxy
Warcprox runs on python 3.4+.
To install latest release run:
# apt-get install libffi-dev libssl-dev
pip install warcproxYou can also install the latest bleeding edge code:
pip install git+https://github.com/internetarchive/warcprox.gitFor best results while browsing through warcprox, you need to add the CA cert as a trusted cert in your browser. If you don't do that, you will get the warning when you visit each new site. But worse, any embedded https content on a different server will simply fail to load, because the browser will reject the certificate without telling you.
