Microproxy is a lightweight and fast HTTP/HTTPS proxy server designed for Unix-like operating systems. It is ideal for testing and debugging applications that make HTTP requests. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install Microproxy on OpenSUSE latest.
Before you start, ensure that you have the following:
Microproxy requires some dependencies to function correctly. Open the terminal and execute the following command to install them.
sudo zypper install automake autoconf libtool make gcc glibc-devel openssl-devel
Next, you need to clone the Microproxy repository from GitHub. Execute the following command to do so:
git clone https://github.com/thekvs/microproxy.git
This command will download the repository to your current directory.
Now that you have the repository cloned to your system, navigate to the microproxy directory.
cd microproxy
Next, run the following command to compile and install Microproxy:
./autogen.sh && ./configure && make && sudo make install
This command will install Microproxy in the default directory /usr/local/bin.
Finally, you can start the Microproxy server using the following command:
sudo microproxy -l http://localhost:8080/
This command will start the Microproxy server listening on port 8080. You can now configure your applications to use Microproxy server to route HTTP/HTTPS traffic.
That's it! You have successfully installed Microproxy on OpenSUSE latest. You can now use it to test and debug your applications.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
