Support CONNECT method

[ianzone]

What is the feature you are proposing?

I'm trying to build an MITM proxy using Hono, but Hono misses the CONNECT method, which the MITM proxy requires.

You can use app.on

You can use app.on

It doesn't work. Considering code

import { Hono } from 'hono';

const app = new Hono();

app.on('CONNECT', '*', async (c) => {
  console.log('HTTP CONNECT:', c.req.method, c.req.url);
});

export default {
  port: 8080,
  fetch: app.fetch,
};

Set export http_proxy=http://127.0.0.1:8080
Then try curl -v https://github.com, you will get 400 bad request, and the console doesn't log.

Sorry, please try to rewrite to lower case

Hmm

Can you intercept request? (Use app.all)

[ianzone]

Can you intercept request? (Use app.all)

That's my first attempt.

[EdamAme-x]

If so, I don't think it is possible to do that with Hono.
This is true for other libraries as well.

That's why it's a feature request.

Hi @ianzone

I'm not so familiar with MITM proxy, but supporting the CONNECT method is out of Hono's score. Hono is built with just Web Standard API, but it does not support the CONNECT method. This is the reason.
