Simple, hackable http proxy?

[dpc]

I have a need for an http-proxy-like thing. I'd like to base it on an existing implementation, that I would just modify a little bit.

Looking for an existing project/example:

• modern Rust features (async)
• slim depedencies
• good performance
• simple structure, so it's easy to start hacking

Any recommendation are much appreciated.

From a search on lib.rs, I have stumbled upon ::hyper-proxy:

modern Rust features ( async )

• Not really async/await, but the API features asynchronous programming through ::tokio (version 0.1)'s Futures.

slim dependencies

good performance

• Based on ::hyper, so it should be.

simple structure, so it's easy to start hacking

• this is quite subjective, but it offers a ::hyper-level of API, so it remains a bit low level.
