I'm trying to write down a simple local proxy for javascript: since I need to load some stuff from javascript within a web page, I wrote this simple daemon in python:
import string,cgi,time
from os import curdir, sep
import urllib
import urllib2
from BaseHTTPServer import BaseHTTPRequestHandler, HTTPServer
class MyHandler(BaseHTTPRequestHandler):
def fetchurl(self, url, post, useragent, cookies):
headers={"User-Agent":useragent, "Cookie":cookies}
url=urllib.quote_plus(url, ":/?.&-=")
if post:
req = urllib2.Request(url,post,headers)
else:
req=urllib2.Request(url, None, headers)
try:
response=urllib2.urlopen(req)
except urllib2.URLError, e:
print "URLERROR: "+str(e)
return False
except urllib2.HTTPError, e:
print "HTTPERROR: "+str(e)
return False
else:
return response.read()
def do_GET(self):
if self.path != "/":
[callback, url, post, useragent, cookies]=self.path[1:].split("%7C")
print "callback = "+callback
print "url = "+url
print "post = "+post
print "useragent = "+useragent
print "cookies = "+cookies
if useragent=="":
useragent="pyjproxy v. 1.0"
load=self.fetchurl(url, post, useragent, cookies)
pack=load.replace("\\", "\\\\").replace("\"", "\\\"").replace("\n", "\\n").replace("\r", "\\r").replace("\t", "\\t").replace(" </script>", "</scr\"+\"ipt>")
response=callback+"(\""+pack+"\");"
if load:
self.send_response(200)
self.send_header('Content-type', 'text/javascript')
self.end_headers()
self.wfile.write(response)
self.wfile.close()
return
else:
self.send_error(404,'File Not Found: %s' % self.path)
return
else:
embedscript="function pyjload(datadict){ if(!datadict[\"url\"] || !datadict[\"callback\"]){return false;} if(!datadict[\"post\"]) datadict[\"post\"]=\"\"; if(!datadict[\"useragent\"]) datadict[\"useragent\"]=\"\"; if(!datadict[\"cookies\"]) datadict[\"cookies\"]=\"\"; var oHead = document.getElementsByTagName('head').item(0); var oScript= document.createElement(\"script\"); oScript.type = \"text/javascript\"; oScript.src=\"http://localhost:1180/\"+datadict[\"callback\"]+\"%7C\"+datadict[\"url\"]+\"%7C\"+datadict[\"post\"]+\"%7C\"+datadict[\"useragent\"]+\"%7C\"+datadict[\"cookies\"]; oHead.appendChild( oScript);}"
self.send_response(200)
self.send_header("Content-type", "text/html")
self.end_headers()
self.wfile.write(embedscript)
self.wfile.close()
return
def main():
try:
server = HTTPServer(('127.0.0.1', 1180), MyHandler)
print 'started httpserver...'
server.serve_forever()
except KeyboardInterrupt:
print '^C received, shutting down server'
server.socket.close()
if __name__ == '__main__':
main()
And I use within a web page like this one:
<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html><head>
<script>
function miocallback(htmlsource)
{
alert(htmlsource);
}
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://localhost:1180"></script>
</head><body>
<a onclick="pyjload({'url':'http://www.google.it','callback':'miocallback'});"> Take the Red Pill</a>
</body></html>
Now, on Firefox and Chrome looks like it works always. On Opera and Internet Explorer, however, I noticed that sometimes it doesn't work, or it hangs for a lot of time... what's up, I wonder? Did I misdo something?
Thank for any help! Matteo
