httpry: Run as daemon process.
$ httpry -d -o ${filename-log}
try on your machine

The command httpry -d -o ${filename-log} is used to run the httpry tool with certain options and store the output in a specified filename.

Here's a breakdown of the different components of the command:

  • httpry: This is the actual executable command or tool being executed. httpry is a packet sniffer tool designed specifically for capturing and analyzing HTTP traffic.

  • -d: This option is used to enable the live display mode of httpry. When used, the captured HTTP traffic will be displayed in real-time as it is being captured.

  • -o ${filename-log}: This option is used to specify the output file to store the captured HTTP traffic. ${filename-log} is a placeholder that needs to be replaced with the actual desired filename. For example, if you want to save the captured traffic in a file named http.log, you would replace ${filename-log} with http.log.

So, when the command is executed with the chosen options and filename, httpry will start capturing HTTP traffic in live display mode and store the captured data in the specified output file.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
