Proxyee is a Java library built on Netty that implements an HTTP proxy server supporting HTTP, HTTPS, and WebSocket protocols. It provides MITM (man-in-the-middle) capabilities to intercept, capture, and tamper with HTTP/HTTPS traffic via an interceptor pipeline.

Use cases

• build an HTTP proxy server in Java
• intercept and modify HTTPS traffic for debugging
• capture HTTP requests and responses programmatically
• inject scripts or modify response bodies of web pages
• implement a man-in-the-middle proxy like mitmproxy in Java
• proxy WebSocket connections
• serve CA certificates for HTTPS interception

When to choose

• you need an embeddable HTTP/HTTPS proxy library in a JVM application
• you want programmatic control over intercepted traffic via interceptors
• you need MITM capabilities with custom CA certificate handling
• you want a lightweight alternative to running external proxy tools like mitmproxy

When to avoid

• you need a ready-made GUI proxy tool rather than a library
• your project is not on the JVM
• you need SOCKS or other non-HTTP proxy protocols
• you require production-grade TLS interception with extensive protocol coverage beyond HTTP/WebSocket
