Incercept HTTP for logs

#python #http #logging

If you need a fast way to intercept HTTP requests for debugging, you can use pyserv. It's a one-class python library which simply logs inbound HTTP requests.

pip install pyserv
serv 8001

# in another terminal:
curl -X POST "http://localhost:8001/blub/lol" -H "accept: */*" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d "[{\"yay\": \"data\"}]"
