You use this as a HTTP proxy not as a URL. Think of Squid. You need to configure HTTP proxy as described here: https://support.apple.com/kb/PH18553?locale=en_US If you use Firefox instead of Safari you can configure proxy just in Firefox instead of the whole system.

I'm an idiot. Thanks.

(Can this be a feature request? :)

An older version of WRP allowed to be run as a cgi-bin application instead of a proxy. I can probably dig it out.

Actually I've encountered a new issue:

2016-07-14 00:17:40.790 Python[4753:136361] App Transport Security has blocked a cleartext HTTP (http://) resource load since it is insecure. Temporary exceptions can be configured via your app's Info.plist file.
 ... something went wrong 2: The resource could not be loaded because the App Transport Security policy requires the use of a secure connection.

Apparently the solution is to put this in Info.plist:

<key>NSAppTransportSecurity</key>
<dict>
  <!--Include to allow all connections (DANGER)-->
  <key>NSAllowsArbitraryLoads</key>
      <true/>
</dict>

But python scripts don't have an Info.plist. Is there a workaround that you know of?

Can you open a new / separate issue for this?

Perhaps this would work? Maybe an "app" could be created with this:
