It runs a real local recording proxy (default 127.0.0.1:8889) and shows every request that passes through it. FEATURES: * Structure view: a tree grouped by host and URL path with request counts, bytes, average duration and error counts, plus a sequence list and full request/response details (headers, decoded bodies, timings). * Bandwidth throttling: real token-bucket rate limiting of download and upload bytes plus added latency, applied to proxied HTTP traffic and to HTTPS CONNECT tunnels. Presets (56k, DSL, 3G, 4G) or custom values, with a live graph of the measured throughput. * Map Local: answer matching URLs with a local file or folder. * Map Remote: redirect matching requests (or tunnels) to another host/port. * Repeat: send a request N times (optionally concurrently) and get min / avg / median / p95 / max / standard deviation, requests per second and a status histogram. * Export sessions to CSV and HAR 1.2; export repeat results to CSV. * HTTPS is tunnelled (host and byte counts only) unless you enable SSL proxying, which uses a local CA generated with the openssl binary and only works in clients where you import and trust that CA. HTTP/1.1 only. Configure your browser or set http\_proxy / https\_proxy to the proxy address; the app does not change system proxy settings. Responses are buffered before forwarding; WebSocket upgrades are not supported. A Linux alternative to Charles Proxy. Not affiliated with or endorsed by XK72 Ltd.

They update automatically and roll back gracefully. Snaps are discoverable and installable from the [Snap Store](https://snapcraft.io/store), an app store with an audience of millions. ### Enable snapd On Arch Linux, snap can be installed from the [Arch User Repository (AUR).](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/snapd/) The [manual build process](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_User_Repository#Installing_packages) is the Arch-supported install method for AUR packages, and you’ll need the [prerequisites](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_User_Repository#Prerequisites) installed before you can install any AUR package. You can then install snap with the following: ``` git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/snapd.git cd snapd makepkg -si ``` Once installed, the *systemd* unit that manages the main snap communication socket needs to be enabled: ``` sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket ``` If [AppArmor](https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/AppArmor) is enabled in your system, enable the service which loads AppArmor profiles for snaps: ``` sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.apparmor.service ``` To enable *classic* snap support, enter the following to create a symbolic link between `/var/lib/snapd/snap` and `/snap`: ``` sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap ``` Either log out and back in again, or restart your system, to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly. ### Install Web Traffic Inspector To install Web Traffic Inspector, simply use the following command: ``` sudo snap install web-traffic-inspector ``` ### Other popular snaps… [See more...](https://snapcraft.io/search?categories=featured) [See more in Featured](https://snapcraft.io/search?categories=featured) ### More things to do… #### [Get the snap store](https://snapcraft.io/snap-store) Browse and find snaps from the convenience of your desktop using the snap store snap. #### [Learn more about snaps](https://snapcraft.io/docs) Interested to find out more about snaps?
