Reqon

Effortlessly intercept and inspect http requests. 📡

Reqon is a streamlined cli tool designed to run locally and capture any http requests sent to it. Perfect for determining incoming webhook payloads or testing outgoing local requests before they hit production or third-party applications. Simply swap your endpoint url with the reqon domain, and fire away!

Captured request details are displayed in the terminal and stored in a local JSON file powered by LowDB. You can open up the dashboard to see current and past saved requests in a simplistic but effective layout.

Installation

Installation is through npm and requires node version >= 16.0.0.

npm install -g reqon

Usage

Reqon's detailed usage is shown below.

reqon [options]

options:
  --port=<port>               sets the port to listen for incoming requests
  --dashboard-port=<port>     sets the port the dashboard is available on
  --save-max=<number>         changes the max number of entries saved locally
  --save-file=<path>          changes the filepath used for local db, json ext required
  --files-dir=<path>          changes the directory that request images are stored in
  --no-dashboard              disables the dashboard, --dashboard-port is ignored
  --no-save                   disables saving locally, --save-file + --save-max ignored
  --help                      what you're seeing right now :)

There are defaults associated with some of the options above:

• port default is 8080
• dashboard-port default is 8081
• save-max default is 50
• save-file default is ~/.reqon/db.json
• files-dir default is ~/.reqon/files

Tip: You can use a tunnelling app like ngrok to expose reqon's interceptor outside your local network.
