How to use

  1. Write a file .env(Linux) or settings.ini(Windows). Like this:
[settings]
PORT=5555
SERVER_URL=http://example.org
CA_KEY=ca.key
CA_CERT=ca.crt
CERT_KEY=cert.key
CERT_DIR=certs/
OPENSSL_BINPATH=openssl
CLIENT_ENCODING=utf-8
LOCAL_DOMAIN=example.org

sudo update-ca-certificates
  1. Run python3 server.py and set HTTP(S) proxy in your web browser (e.g. Firefox)

  2. Test 100MB/SSL, 1GB/SSL, 10GB/SSL download and check the speed (e.g. https://speed.hetzner.de/1GB.bin)

  3. Enjoy it

  4. (Optional) With Cloudflare, we can expect to accelerate the 4x speed and reduce the network stuck.

(Optional) For Mastodon users

  1. In [php-httpproxy installed directory]/settings.ini or .env, set SERVER_URL variable to localhost in .env (e.g. SERVER_URL=localhost)
  2. In [mastodon installed directory]/env.production, set http_proxy variable to http://localhost:5555 (e.g. http_proxy=http://localhost:5555)
