^^^^^^^^^
|ci_status| |coverage| |latest_release| |python_versions|
This repository contains the **mitmproxy** and **pathod** projects.
``mitmproxy`` is an interactive, SSL/TLS-capable intercepting proxy with a console
interface for HTTP/1, HTTP/2, and WebSockets.
``mitmdump`` is the command-line version of mitmproxy. Think tcpdump for HTTP.
``mitmweb`` is a web-based interface for mitmproxy.
``pathoc`` and ``pathod`` are perverse HTTP client and server applications
designed to let you craft almost any conceivable HTTP request, including ones
that creatively violate the standards.

If you want to contribute changes, keep on reading.
Contributing
------------
As an open source project, mitmproxy welcomes contributions of all forms. If you would like to bring the project forward,
please consider contributing in the following areas:
- **Maintenance:** We are *incredibly* thankful for individuals who are stepping up and helping with maintenance. This includes (but is not limited to) triaging issues, reviewing pull requests and picking up stale ones, helping out other users on StackOverflow_, creating minimal, complete and verifiable examples or test cases for existing bug reports, updating documentation, or fixing minor bugs that have recently been reported.
- **Code Contributions:** We actively mark issues that we consider are `good first contributions`_. If you intend to work on a larger contribution to the project, please come talk to us first.
Development Setup
-----------------
To get started hacking on mitmproxy, please install a recent version of Python (we require at least 3.6).
The following commands should work on your system:
.. code-block:: bash
python3 --version
python3 -m pip --help
python3 -m venv --help
If all of this run successfully, do the following:
.. code-block:: bash
git clone https://github.com/mitmproxy/mitmproxy.git
cd mitmproxy
./dev.sh # "powershell .\dev.ps1" on Windows
The *dev* script will create a `virtualenv`_ environment in a directory called "venv"
and install all mandatory and optional dependencies into it. The primary
mitmproxy components - mitmproxy and pathod - are installed as
"editable", so any changes to the source in the repository will be reflected
live in the virtualenv.
The main executables for the project - ``mitmdump``, ``mitmproxy``,
``mitmweb``, ``pathod``, and ``pathoc`` - are all created within the
virtualenv. After activating the virtualenv, they will be on your $PATH, and
you can run them like any other command:
.. code-block:: bash
. venv/bin/activate # "venv\Scripts\activate" on Windows
mitmdump --version
Testing
-------
If you've followed the procedure above, you already have all the development
requirements installed, and you can run the full test suite with tox_:
.. code-block:: bash
tox -e py # runs Python tests
tox -e lint # checks code style
For speedier testing, we recommend you run `pytest`_ directly on individual test files or folders:
.. code-block:: bash
cd test/mitmproxy/addons
pytest --cov mitmproxy.addons.anticache --cov-report term-missing --looponfail test_anticache.py
Pytest does not check the code style, so you want to run ``tox -e lint`` again before committing.
Please ensure that all patches are accompanied by matching changes in the test
suite. The project tries to maintain 100% test coverage and enforces this strictly for some parts of the codebase.
Documentation
-------------
The following tools are required to build the mitmproxy docs:
- Hugo_
- modd_
- yarn_
.. code-block:: bash
cd docs
yarn
modd
Code Style
----------
Keeping to a consistent code style throughout the project makes it easier to
contribute and collaborate. Please stick to the guidelines in
`PEP8`_ and the `Google Style Guide`_ unless there's a very
good reason not to.
This is automatically enforced on every PR. If we detect a linting error, the
PR checks will fail and block merging. You can run our lint checks yourself
with the following command:
.. code-block:: bash
tox -e lint
