BROWSERMOB PROXY EXAMPLE

Browsermob proxy example with step by step instructions how to install and create proxies.

1. Download latest version from https://github.com/lightbody/browsermob-proxy/releases.


2. Unzip and start the browsermob proxy like:
LINUX

sh ~/browsermob-proxy-x.x.x/bin/browsermob-proxy -port 9090 --use-littleproxy true

WINDOWS

C:\bmp\browsermob-proxy-x.x.x\bin\browsermob-proxy.bat -port 9090 --use-littleproxy true

3. Use the browsermob proxy rest API to create a proxy.
LINUX

curl -X POST -d 'port=9091' http://localhost:9090/proxy

WINDOWS
You can use any rest client like the Chrome extension "Advanced Rest Client" and select POST and the url http://localhost:9090/proxy?port=9091 to ask for a proxy to be created on port 9091.


4. Repeat step 3 to create more proxies on different ports if desired. That way you could use several Gridlastic Connect tunnels, each using their own Browsermob proxy.
