Web-Proxy vs Proxy Server

Keep in mind that sites/pages that are too script-heavy or with too many “dynamic parts”, may not work with this proxy script.
That is a known limitation of web proxies. For such sites, you should use an actual proxy server to route your browser’s HTTP requests through:

Installation

Keep in mind that this is a project and not a library. Installing this via require would do you not good.
A project such as this, should be installed straight into the public directory of your web server.

composer create-project athlon1600/php-proxy-app:dev-master /var/www/

If you do not have composer or trying to host this application on either a shared hosting, or a VPS hosting with limited permissions (dreamhost.com), then download a pre-installed version of this app as a ZIP archive from www.php-proxy.com.

Keep it up-to-date

Application itself rarely will change, vast majority of changes will be done to its requirement packages like php-proxy. Simply call this command once in a while to make sure your proxy is always using the latest versions.

composer update

config.php

This file will be loaded into the global Config class.

/templates/

This should have been named “views”, but for historic purposes we keep it named as templates for now.

/plugins/

PHP-Proxy provides many of its own native plugins, but users are free to write their own custom plugins, which could then be automatically loaded from this very folder. See /plugins/TestPlugin.php for an example.
