Httptype identifies the http host software used by a website, with quick and efficient results.
To use this software, httptype reads the http_proxy and no_proxy environment variables to help users determine whether or not to use a proxy. By doing so, users can receive accurate information about the host server without the concern of the proxy server getting in the way.
Host files can be uploaded using the --hosts switch, allowing users to read input from a host file. Additionally, a single host can be queried by simply passing its name on the command line. If no host file is specified through the --hosts file and no host is specified on the command line, httptype will read the list from standard input.
If users need to override the http_proxy environment variable, they can use the --proxy switch. This switch enables users to specify their desired proxy server and port number. If a proxy server is not desired, the --noproxy switch can be used.
Lastly, httptype allows users to customize their no_proxy environment variable. By using a comma-delimited list of hosts, users can specify which hosts should not be accessed with a proxy. This feature ensures that users are receiving accurate results for their desired hosts.
Recently, httptype has undergone several updates, and the newest version is now 1.2.3. These updates include making 1.3.8 stable and renaming it to 1.2.3. The software continues to provide accurate and efficient results to users.
