Simple Server Needed
« on: August 28, 2010, 10:17:20 am »
Hello,
I am not very good at web development, but have a simple request.  Could someone code for me a server (assuming it is at example.com) that will be given a request like this:'
GET http://www.example.com/?http://www.google.com/
and will GET google, and return the response.  This should work for every protocol - GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, all of em.  All it needs to do is replicate and perform the request, then return the response.
Thanks!

From what I can tell, he wants a pr0xy.
Sadly, I have no experience here, or I would help.

This isn't too hard if you are just redirecting requests only and returning the output.
However, if you are trying to code a full blown pr0xy, then you should probably just use
PHProxy or other existing software.

I assume you are using PHP?

I don't really care what it is written in.  It *is* a proxy, but the way I plan on implementing it wouldn't work with PHProxy.  It would be extremely effective the way I'm using it to simply redirect the requests as alberthrocks was talking about.  Trust me on this - it would be really cool the way I'm doing it.

So you just want a file that returns the code for a website when given the url in any request format?

Well, it should perform the request, then return the response it gets.

I'm just kinda confused by your first explanation I guess... since 1. You said "GET *" then the link had no variable being set, just the value... =P and 2. You're asking for a web server to be set up for this when it seems like you just need a page...  And I still don't exactly get the "request" and "response" you are asking for, is it just the url and the page, or are you performing a request to THAT page, or what?

Well, think of it this way.  A page is what I need, and by request/response, I basically have a way of replicating all traffic going through a system, redirect it, and change the response.  This way, the proxy would just have to accept any form of traffic, be it GET, POST, PUT, whatever, and replicate it.  I would pass the url of the server in the request url.

I don't think he does server hosting stuff such as those, though. He uses 1and1 like I do for all his stuff.

Unless SirCmpwn doesn't need a dedicated connection?
