2023/06/25 20:38:37 You can supply the listening port, forward port, buffer size, insecure -i cert as command line args
2023/06/25 20:38:41 Request from 192.168.1.112:13519 to host api.openai.com and url /v1/chat/completions

By default, proxy will listen to HTTP requests on port 80 and retransmit HTTPS via port 443. Buffer size of 4096 is the buffer to receive destination server's response chunks before forwarding back original client.

Modify ports and buffer size

http-to-https-proxy.exe 90 445 5000
2023/06/25 20:39:20 HTTP to HTTPS proxy v0.3 listening to 90, forward to 445 with listening buffer 5000
2023/06/25 20:39:20 You can supply the listening port, forward port, buffer size, insecure -i cert as command line args
...

All 3 arguments must be specified even if you only wish to change one of the values.

http-to-https-proxy.exe -i
2023/06/25 20:39:48 HTTP to HTTPS proxy v0.3 listening to 80, forward to 443 with listening buffer 4096
2023/06/25 20:39:48 Allow insecure TLS certificates
2023/06/25 20:39:48 You can supply the listening port, forward port, buffer size, insecure -i cert as command line args

If the server you are connecting to is using expired/insecure TLS certificates. You can add -i argument to allow those connections.
