smello-server 0.2.0

A local web dashboard for inspecting outgoing HTTP requests from your code

Smello Server

A local web dashboard for inspecting outgoing HTTP requests captured by the smello client SDK — including gRPC calls made by Google Cloud libraries.

Setup

Docker (recommended — includes web dashboard):

docker run -p 5110:5110 ghcr.io/smelloscope/smello

Or install via pip (API only, no web dashboard):

pip install smello-server
smello-server run

The server listens at http://localhost:5110.

Then add the client SDK to your Python code:

pip install smello

import smello
smello.init(server_url="http://localhost:5110")

# All outgoing requests are now captured (HTTP and gRPC)

API

Smello Server provides a JSON API for exploring captured requests from the command line.

# List all captured requests
curl -s http://localhost:5110/api/requests | python -m json.tool

# Filter by method, host, status, or URL substring
curl -s 'http://localhost:5110/api/requests?method=POST&host=api.stripe.com'

# Get full request/response details
curl -s http://localhost:5110/api/requests/{id} | python -m json.tool

# Clear all requests
curl -X DELETE http://localhost:5110/api/requests
