hin v0.0.6

hin - Http INterceptor

Intercept, inspect, manipulate HTTP/HTTPS traffic

Install

npm install -g hin

Update

npm update -g hin

Usage

First time run:

hin

will generate private key and Root CA certificate inside ~/.hin folder. Proxy will be listening in 8001 port by default. To specify custom port use --port option:

hin --port 4001

Next time you run Http Interceptor it will check for generated certificate and use it. In addition you can specify path to custom private key and Root CA certificate:

hin --cert <path_to_root_cartificate> --key <path_to_private_key>

You can re-generate private key and Root CA certificate by using --generate option:

hin --generate

For Http Interceptor to be able to intercept SSL traffic you need to add generated Root CA to Trusted Roots.

MacOS

The following command will add generated certificate to your login keychain and mark as trusted:

security add-trusted-cert -d -r trustRoot -k ~/Library/Keychains/login.keychain ~/.hin/_ca.crt

Linux

Debian, Ubuntu

sudo cp ~/.hin/_ca.crt /usr/local/share/ca-certificates/hin_ca.crt
sudo update-ca-certificates

Fedora

sudo cp ~/.hin/_ca.crt /etc/pki/ca-trust/source/anchors/hin_ca.crt
sudo update-ca-trust

Arch

sudo cp ~/.hin/_ca.crt /etc/ca-certificates/trust-source/anchors/hin_ca.crt
sudo update-ca-trust

Gentoo

sudo cp ~/.hin/_ca.crt /usr/share/ca-certificates/hin_ca.crt
sudo update-ca-certificates

Windows

The following powershell commands will add generated certificate to current user's Trusted Root Certification Authorities list:

PS> Import-Module pki
PS> Import-Certificate -FilePath "${env:USERPROFILE}\.hin\_ca.crt" -CertStoreLocation Cert:\CurrentUser\Root

Firefox

Firefox manages its own certificate authorities list. Open Preferences (about:preferences) View Certificates section and import generated Root CA certificate. You need to check 'This certificate can identify websites.' during import.

Chromium

Chromium manages its own certificate authorities list. Open Certificate Settings (chrome://settings/certificates) Authorities section and import generated Root CA certificate. You need to check 'Trust this certificate for identifying websites' during import.
