Self-hosted webhook inspector. Single binary, SQLite, no external dependencies.
webhook.site is the go-to tool for debugging webhooks, but it sends your data to someone else's server. Stripe payloads, OAuth tokens, PII — all of it leaves your network. A lot of companies block it outright for that reason. Webhix runs on your own infrastructure and stores everything locally.
- 📡 Capture any HTTP method — headers, body, query params, IP, timestamp, content type, size
- 🔴 Live UI updates via SSE — no page refresh needed
- 🪞 Replay any request with one click
- 🎭 Custom responses — configure status, headers, and body (lightweight mock server)
- 🔁 CLI forwarding to localhost:
webhix forward <token> --to localhost:3000 - 📋 Export as curl — copy any request as a runnable command
- 🔍 Full-text search and filter by HTTP method
- 🔒 Basic auth out of the box
- 🐳 Docker, Compose, or standalone binary
- 💾 SQLite by default — no Redis or Postgres required

# Listening on http://localhost:8080Endpoint URLs follow the pattern https://<base-url>/r/<token>.
Auth is optional. If not configured, the dashboard is open to anyone with network access — recommended for local use only. To protect it, set one or both:
# Basic auth password (browser login)
WEBHIX_PASSWORD=yourpassword webhix serve
# Secret key for API / CLI access (Authorization: Bearer or X-Webhix-Key header)
WEBHIX_SECRET_KEY=yourkey webhix serve
# Both at once
webhix serve --password yourpassword --secret-key yourkeyWebhook capture URLs (/r/<token>) are always public — no auth required there.
Works behind Caddy, Nginx, Traefik. Reads X-Forwarded-* headers automatically. Set --base-url or WEBHIX_BASE_URL to match your public domain.
