Caterpillar Proxy - The simple and parasitic web proxy with SPAM filter (formerly, php-httpproxy)
![title image](assets/img/title.jfif)
## How it works
### Basic structure
```
You <-> Proxy client (Python) <-> Parasitized proxy server (Optional, PHP) <-> On the Web
```
For example, build a simple web debugging proxy on the shared servers.
### Stateful mode
This project supports two modes of connection. The default is stateless. You can use the stateful mode to avoid being constrained by transfer capacity limits. See the [Stateful mode (github.com/gnh1201/caterpillar wiki)](https://github.com/gnh1201/caterpillar/wiki/Stateful-mode).
## (Optional) Before to use
If you have a server that ***will be parasitized*** and you want to proxy it, you should upload the `index.php` file to a shared server. The index.php file is located in the `assets/php` directory within this repository.
## How to use
1. Write a file `.env`(Linux) or `settings.ini`(Windows). Like this:
```
[settings]
PORT=5555
SERVER_URL=http://example.org
SERVER_CONNECTION_TYPE=stateless
CA_KEY=ca.key
CA_CERT=ca.crt
CERT_KEY=cert.key
CERT_DIR=certs/
OPENSSL_BINPATH=openssl
CLIENT_ENCODING=utf-8
```
- (Optional) Install RootCA for SSL decryption ([Download CA Certificate](ca.crt))
```bash
sudo apt-get install -y ca-certificates
sudo cp ca.crt /usr/local/share/ca-certificates/caterpillar-ca.crt
sudo update-ca-certificates
```
2. Run `python3 server.py` and set HTTP(S) proxy in your web browser (e.g. Firefox)
3. Test [100MB](http://speed.hetzner.de/100MB.bin)/[SSL](https://speed.hetzner.de/100MB.bin), [1GB](http://speed.hetzner.de/1GB.bin)/[SSL](https://speed.hetzner.de/1GB.bin), [10GB](http://speed.hetzner.de/10GB.bin)/[SSL](http://speed.hetzner.de/10GB.bin) download and check the speed (e.g. https://speed.hetzner.de/1GB.bin)
3. Enjoy it
4. (Optional) With [Cloudflare](https://cloudflare.com), we can expect to accelerate the 4x speed and reduce the network stuck.
