It listens on a given TCP port and -handles HTTP proxy requests. Designed from the ground up to be fast and -yet small, it is an ideal solution for use cases such as embedded -deployments where a full featured HTTP proxy is required, but the system -resources for a larger proxy are unavailable. - - -OPTIONS -------- - -*tinyproxy* accepts the following options: - -*-c <config-file>*:: - Use an alternate configuration file. - -*-d*:: - Don't daemonize and stay in the foreground. Useful for debugging purposes. - -*-h*:: - Display a short help screen of command line arguments and exit. - -*-l*:: - Display the licensing agreement. - -*-v*:: - Display version information and exit. - - -SIGNALS -------- - -In addition to command-line options, there are also several signals that -can be sent to *tinyproxy* while it is running to generate debugging -information and to force certain events. - -*SIGHUP*:: - Force Tinyproxy to do a garbage collection on the current - connections linked list. This is usually done automatically after a - certain number of connections have been handled. - - -TEMPLATE FILES --------------- - -There are two occasions when Tinyproxy delivers HTML pages to -the client on it's own right: - -. When an error occurred, a corresponding error page is returned. -. When a request for the stathost is made, a page summarizing the - connection statistics is returned. (See STATHOST below.) - -The layout of both error pages and the statistics page can be -controlled via configurable HTML template files that are plain -HTML files that additionally understand a few template -variables. - - -TEMPLATE VARIABLES ------------------- - -There are several standard HTML variables that are available in every -template file: - -*request*:: - The full HTTP request line. - -*cause*:: - The abbreviated cause of the error condition. - -*clientip*:: - The IP address of the client making the request. - -*clienthost*:: - The hostname of the client making the request. - -*version*:: - The version of Tinyproxy. - -*package*:: - The package name. Presently, resolves to 'tinyproxy'. - -*date*:: - The current date/time in HTTP format. - -In addition, almost all templates support: - -*detail*:: - A detailed, plain English explanation of the error and possible - causes. - -When Tinyproxy finds a variable name enclosed in braces, e.g. -"\{request}", then this is replaced by the value of the corresponding -variable before delivery of the page. - - -STATHOST --------- - -Tinyproxy returns a HTML page with connection statistics when it -receives a HTTP request for a certain host -- the stathost. The -stathost name defaults to `tinyproxy.stats` and can be changed at -compile-time with the configure switch `--with-stathost` to any name or -IP address. - -The stat file template can be changed at runtime through the -configuration variable `StatFile`. - - -FILES ------ - -`/etc/tinyproxy/tinyproxy.conf`, `/var/run/tinyproxy.pid`, `/var/log/tinyproxy.log` - -BUGS ----- - -To report bugs in Tinyproxy, please visit -<https://www.banu.com/tinyproxy/support/[https://www.banu.com/tinyproxy/support/]>. - - -COPYRIGHT ---------- - -Copyright (c) 1998-2000 Steven Young; -Copyright (c) 2000-2001 Robert James Kaes; -Copyright (c) 2009 Mukund Sivaraman; -Copyright (c) 2009 Michael Adam. - -This program is distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public -License version 2 or above.
