red
Download proxy HTTP server. Listen incomming GET requests and redirects them according to path.
Motivation
Some DLNA/UPnP devices (e.g Samsung Smart TVs) are working in bound of local network only and can't play media from internet directly. A sort of workaround is required for such devices.
Example
Let's say red is up and listening on 192.168.1.100:8000
Request like http://192.168.1.100:8000/http://www.somewhere.org/path/to/file.txt will download file.txt from http://www.somewhere.org/path/to/file.txt
Usage
> red.py [--ip <ip to listen on, default all current interfaces>] [--port <port to listen on, default 8000>]
Requires
- Python2
TODO
- Both py2 and py3 support
