[![Vulnerabilities](https://sonarcloud.io/api/project_badges/measure?project=baez90_inetmock&metric=vulnerabilities)](https://sonarcloud.io/dashboard?id=baez90_inetmock)
INetMock is kind of a fork of [INetSim](https://www.inetsim.org/).
"Kind of" in terms that both applications overlap in their functionality to serve as "fake internet" routers.
INetMock right now does **not** implement so many protocols like INetSim.
In fact it is only able to respond to HTTP, HTTPS, DNS, DNS-over-TLS (DoT) requests and to act as an HTTP proxy.
The most notable advantage of INetMOck over INetSim is that it issues proper TLS certificates on the fly signed by a CA certificate that can be deployed to client systems to achieve "proper" TLS encryption - as long as the client does not use certificate pinning or something similar.
A second advantage is that INetMock is a complete rewrite in Go, based on a plugin system that allows dynamic configuration while it has a way smaller memory footprint and far better startup and shutdown times.
It also does not enforce `root` privileges as it is also possible to run the application with the required capabilities to open ports e.g. with SystemD (a sample unit file can be found in the `deploy/` directory).
_This project is still heavy work-in-progress. There may be breaking changes at any time. There's no guarantee for anything except no kittens will be harmed!_
