@shahruk/local-proxy-server

Local Proxy Server lets you serve a page locally with a proxy server as fallback. The page gets downloaded to a local file and then served via a local HTTP server. Includes BYPASS_AKAMAI headers by default.

Usage

npx @shahruk/local-proxy-server URL_TO_SCRAPE SAVE_PATH PROXY_URL

Example: Save https://www.example.com/ as index.html and serve all missing files from https://example.com

npx @shahruk/local-proxy-server https://www.example.com/ index.html https://example.com

Authentication

Scrape a site behind basic auth using the authentication header.

npx @shahruk/local-proxy-server https://www.example.com/ --authentication="username:password" index.html https://example.com

What can I use this for?

• When working on JS and CSS files for a slow monolithic app, you can treat the monolith as a static site generator
• Download any website and edit it however you want locally
  • Download a news page and edit it to make fake headlines
  • Download the example homepage and insert your own custom feature
  • Customize a template to see what it would look like with your own images
  • Etc.

Additional Files

If for example example.com's logo was saved as /logo.jpg, you could add a file locally as logo.jpg and it would be served instead of the one hosted at https://example.com/logo.jpg
