mitmproxy - getting certificate issues and unable to browse https enabled website

First you need to install mitmproxy - which comes with mitmweb, mitmproxy and mitmdump. 

This focus on configuring your browser to use mitmweb. 

Start your mitmweb proxy. You will noticed there's a tab on port 8081.  http://127.0.0.1:8081/#/flows.

Then a powershell command will fire up.


Then you need to configure your browser's proxy. 


After you follow the instruction to install mitm proxy, you also need to install the certificate by browsing to this link here :  http://mitm.it/. Install certificate for your platform - Windows/Linux etc.  If you're doing it via windows, please ensure you download the insecure file. To install, double click on the p12. file. 

Then restart your mitmweb proxy and you should be good to go.


What if you would like to setup for mitmproxy - well once you fire up this from the command line and changing the proxy settings as shown above, that should work too. 

If you're using curl, you may need to specify --proxy options.

The same goes for Key field too, if you're adding anything to it. As long as you provide a valid key size, then we're good and you're code will be ready.
