Usage with standalone HTTP Proxy

This functionality is currently disabled.

I developed a simple HTTP proxy that can be used with this extension to enable the user to initiate a re-start of the HTTP proxy tunnel, with a new set of keys and a new destination. This, combined with re-setting the browser settings back to the original defaults(which is also done by the HTTP Proxy when re-initiated), amounts to a "Fresh Identity" feature for the I2P browser.

Before you begin, get the Standalone HTTP proxy from here and run it like so:

    httpproxy -littleboss=start

You can also use 'go get'

    go get -u github.com/eyedeekay/httptunnel/httpproxy

If you change the default host and port, you will need to alter the following guide.

In order to use it with the custom HTTP proxy, open the "Add-On's" menu and select the options for the i2psetproxy.js plugin. Change the "Proxy" configuration from

    Host: 127.0.0.1
    Port: 4444

to

    Host: 127.0.0.1
    Port: 7950

and change the "Control" configuration from:

    Host: 127.0.0.1
    Port: 4444

to

    Host: 127.0.0.1
    Port: 7951

Now, when you press the Toopie button in the toolbar, you will see in the output of the HTTP proxy that it has been re-started.
