# socks-to-http-proxy  
An executable to convert SOCKS5 proxy into HTTP proxy
## About
`sthp` purpose is to create HTTP proxy on top of the Socks 5 Proxy
## How it works
It uses hyper library HTTP proxy [example](https://github.com/hyperium/hyper/blob/master/examples/http_proxy.rs) and adds functionality to connect via Socks5
## Compiling
Follow these instructions to compile
1. Ensure you have current version of `cargo` and [Rust](https://www.rust-lang.org) installed
2. Clone the project `$ git clone https://github.com/KaranGauswami/socks-to-http-proxy.git && cd socks-to-http-proxy`
3. Build the project `$ cargo build --release`
4. Once complete, the binary will be located at `target/release/sthp`
## Usage
```bash
sthp -p 8080 -s 127.0.0.1:1080
```
This will create proxy server on 8080 and use localhost:1080 as a Socks5 Proxy
```bash
sthp -p 8080 -s example.com:8080
```
This will create proxy server on 8080 and use example:1080 as a Socks5 Proxy
> [!NOTE]
> The --socks-address (-s) flag does not support adding a schema at the start (e.g., socks:// or socks5h://). Currently, it only supports socks5h, which means DNS resolution will be done on the SOCKS server.
> [!WARNING]
> After v5, Changed default listening IP from `0.0.0.0` to `127.0.0.1`. This change restricts the application access to the local machine only.
