An implementation of https proxy server based on Java NIO via Netty.

That's a simple idea of how it works:

To test it via browser, we will need setup a virtual hostname like this:

127.0.0.1 test.localdomain

So it will able the browser send the SNI to our netty server.

To test it via openssl, just use this command: openssl s_client -connect localhost:80 -servername test.localdomain 2>&1

So you will be able to see if the protocol is matching with the SNI that we are sending.

To have sure that our certificate is valid on google chrome and another web browsers, we need to add the P12 cert to root certifications settings from browser.

The P12 cert is located on src/main/resources

To make a reverse proxy to a web server application in backend i've created a flask application that will run on 0.0.0.0:8030 This is a simple application that will return a hello world. This application can be cloned at: https://github.com/wisner23/simple-flask
