# HTTP Toolkit Patcher
|
|
|
|
A minimal, cross-platform patcher for HTTP Toolkit that removes subscription requirements.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Why?
|
|
|
|
I don't feel like paying a **monthly subscription** for an HTTP proxy/interceptor. A lifetime license? Sure. But subscription-based for a dev tool? No thanks.
|
|
|
|
## How It Works
|
|
|
|
The patcher intercepts HTTP Toolkit's authentication functions:
|
|
- `isPaidUser`
|
|
- `isLoggedIn`
|
|
- `userHasSubscription`
|
|
- `userEmail`
|
|
- `mightBePaidUser`
|
|
- `isPastDueUser`
|
|
|
|
By hooking these functions, we bypass the subscription checks entirely.
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
1. Install Node.js (if not already installed)
|
|
2. Install dependencies:
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm install
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
**Patch HTTP Toolkit:**
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm start
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Unpatch/Restore:**
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm run unpatch
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Show help:**
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm start help
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
That's it. The patcher handles everything automatically and will request elevated permissions if needed.
|
|
|
|
## Technical Details
|
|
|
|
1. Finds HTTP Toolkit installation
|
|
2. Kills running processes
|
|
3. Requests elevation if needed
|
|
4. Backs up `app.asar`
|
|
5. Extracts and patches `preload.js`
|
|
6. Repackages and launches
|
|
|
|
## Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
**Permission errors?** The patcher will automatically request elevated permissions (admin/sudo).
|
|
|
|
**Already patched?** The patcher will ask if you want to repatch.
|
|
|
|
**Want to restore?** Run `npm run unpatch` to restore from backup.
|
|
|
|
**Anything else?** Open an issue on the [GitHub repository](https://github.com/xenos1337/httptoolkit-patcher/issues).
