Rather than handling requests by itself, this proxy forwards requests to external proxy. For testing and default configuration, it uses Tinyproxy, but it should works with other similar proxy server as well.

Configuration saved in $HOME/.fwdproxy/config.conf file using JSON format as follows,

{
	"port": "8000",
	"proxy": {
		"address": "127.0.0.1",
		"port": "8888",
		"username": "test",
		"password": "testpassword"
	}
}

• port. Server port to listen HTTP request.
• proxy. External proxy configuration.
  • address. Address of external proxy.
  • port. Port of external proxy.
  • username. Proxy-Authorization's user
  • password. Proxy-Authorization's password.

By default, access requires Proxy-Authorization. Credential informations kept in $HOME/.fwdproxy/users.db using bolt database. On first use, a default user created as follows,

• Password: 4dm1n

More user can be added directly to database file.

Log messages is written to $HOME/.fwdproxy/output.log.
