Capture is a reverse proxy that captures the network traffic and shows it in a dashboard

Building / Running

git clone https://github.com/ofabricio/capture.git
cd capture
go build
./capture -url=https://example.com/api -port=9000 -dashboard=apple -max-captures=16

Binaries / Executables

For ready-to-use executables (no need to build it yourself) for Windows and Linux, see Releases page

Configurations

param description
-url Required. Set the base url you want to capture
-port Set the port you want to capture. Default: 9000
-dashboard Set the dashboard name. Default: dashboard
-max-captures Set the max number of captures. Default: 16
-h Show help

Using

If you set your base url as http://example.com/api, now http://localhost:9000 points to that address. Hence, calling http://localhost:9000/users/1 is like calling http://example.com/api/users/1

Capture saves all requests and responses so that you can see them in the dashboard

Dashboard

To access the dashboard go to http://localhost:9000/dashboard

The path /dashboard/** is reserved, that means if your api has a path like that it will be ignored in favor of the dashboard. However, you can change the dashboard's name with -dashboard
