Ok, I've read the entire Twisted O'Reilly book and gone through many of the docs and tutorials but I still need a bit of direction.
I'm trying to make a simple web-based proxy. Similar to the proxy in the Twisted book, but with a web interface. So I could go to http://asdf.com.MYPROXYSITE.com and see the contents of asdf.com.
I have the following code that works well as a browser proxy, but I need to figure out how make it web based.
My thoughts are that I need to make an HTTP server and then adjust the address in the protocol before finishing the proxy request. Am I on the right track? Does anyone have examples of this?
The HTTP proxy implemented in twisted.web.proxy is probably a better starting point. Or, it's at least a good example of how to get a basic proxy together. :) I think you're on the right track, but if you don't want to have to implement this all yourself, you probably don't have to. Jean-Paul
