Httpdbg – A tool to trace the HTTP requests sent by your Python code
Hi, I created httpdbg, a tool for Python developers to easily debug HTTP(S) client requests in Python programs. I developed it because I needed a tool that could help me trace the HTTP requests sent by my tests back to the corresponding methods in our API client. The goal of this tool is to simplify the debugging process, so I designed it to be as simple as possible. It requires no external dependencies, no setup, no superuser privileges, and no code modifications. I'm sharing it with you today because I use it regularly, and it seems like others have found it useful too—so it might be…

Httpdbg is a debugging tool for Python developers that traces HTTP and HTTPS requests made by Python programs. It helps developers connect requests sent during tests back to the corresponding API client methods. The tool requires no external dependencies, configuration, elevated privileges, or code modifications, making it straightforward to use for debugging network communication in Python applications.
