http-to-https-proxy

A proxy that upgrades HTTP connections to HTTPS for systems which cannot make HTTPS requests.

Running the proxy

Default Configuration

./http-to-https-proxy 
2019/11/03 22:54:50 Starting HTTP to HTTPS proxy listening to 80, forward to 443 with listening buffer 5000
2019/11/03 22:54:50 You can supply the listening and forwarding port and buffer size as 3 command line arguments
2019/11/03 22:54:51 Received request to route to host ABC.com and url /api/endpoint
2019/11/03 22:54:52 End of handler
...

By default, proxy will listen to HTTP requests on port 80 and retransmit HTTPS via port 443. Buffer size of 4096 is the buffer to receive destination server's response chunks before forwarding back original client.

Modify ports and buffer size

go run http-to-https-proxy.go 90 445 5000
2019/11/03 22:56:05 HTTP to HTTPS proxy v0.2 listening to 90, forward to 445 with listening buffer 5000
2019/11/03 22:56:05 You can supply the listening and forwarding port and buffer size as 3 command line arguments
...

All 3 arguments must be specified even if you only wish to change one of the values.

http-to-https-proxy.exe -i
2023/03/30 14:47:36 HTTP to HTTPS proxy v0.2 listening to 80, forward to 443 with listening buffer 4096
2023/03/30 14:47:36 Allow insecure TLS certificates
2023/03/30 14:47:36 You can supply the listening port, forward port, buffer size, insecure -i cert as command line args

If the server you are connecting to is using expired/insecure TLS certificates. You can add -i argument to allow those connections.
