Hotwire leverages the wireshark and tshark infrastructure to capture traffic and explore the contents of tcpdump files, but displays the data in a more focused way than wireshark. Hotwire supports only a few protocols (currently PostgreSQL, HTTP and HTTP2), but for these protocols it offers a high-level, clear display of the network traffic, tailored for each specific protocol.
Hotwire can open tcpdump files or record traffic.
HTTP: display basic authentication credentials in a friendly manner
Display errors loading files even if we partially succeeded
Add support for HTTP 1.1 pipelining
Port to latest gtkrs/relm
HTTP: ability to filter based on request or response size
HTTP: fix very long URLs or headers causing an horizontal scrollbar in the display
HTTP: expanders for requests and responses
