0000bartek/nginx-ngrep repository overview

This image has nginx and ngrep installed.

It can be useful for debugging purposes, i.e. viewing requests between services, that are talking to each other using HTTPS. It then acts as HTTPS proxy.

You can use this image for debugging purposes in a setup presented in the diagram above. In short, you can point your service (the red one) to HTTPS proxy container (created from this image - green) and then use ngrep on it to see the requests and responses it sends to the Service B.
