Dmsgweb

[0pcom]

dmsgweb is:

• a socks5 proxy for resolving .dmsg domains which can be configured in a web browser, (or even used with applications such as curl, wget)
• a dmsghttp client + webserver for accessing websites and services over dmsg and returning responses on local http port

this addresses issue:
skycoin/skywire#1637

Setup & testing

• go run cmd/dmsgweb/dmsgweb.go
• configure the proxy settings of your web browser to use localhost:4445

• Visit any dmsghttp endpoint which may otherwise be fetched via dmsgget. Here are some:

Here is an example of a complex website served over dmsghttp

This example was not working when tested with skyfwd (skywire-cli fwd)

The socks5 proxy for the dmsg client and the regular http traffic has been implemented

I've attempted to implement the ability to specify port number for dmsg addresses.

Unfortunately, it's not working as it was in previous commits, will update with revised testing procedure when it is

It's now working from my tests.
