• Filter based on HTTP method

Filtering is useful when you need to capture only specific part of traffic, like API requests. It is possible to filter by URL, HTTP header or HTTP method.

Allow url regexp

# only forward requests being sent to the /api endpoint
gor --input-raw :8080 --output-http staging.com --http-allow-url /api

Disallow url regexp

# only forward requests NOT being sent to the /api... endpoint
gor --input-raw :8080 --output-http staging.com --http-disallow-url /api

Filter based on regexp of header

# only forward requests with an api version of 1.0x
gor --input-raw :8080 --output-http staging.com --http-allow-header api-version:^1\.0\d

# only forward requests NOT containing User-Agent header value "Replayed by Gor"
gor --input-raw :8080 --output-http staging.com --http-disallow-header "User-Agent: Replayed by Gor"

Filter based on HTTP method

Requests not matching a specified whitelist can be filtered out. For example to strip non-nullipotent requests:

gor --input-raw :80 --output-http "http://staging.server" \
    --http-allow-method GET \
    --http-allow-method OPTIONS
