How to Install Immich on Ubuntu Server Latest

Introduction

Immich is a simple MITM proxy server written in Python. It allows you to intercept, modify and replay HTTP/HTTPS traffic. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install Immich on Ubuntu Server Latest.

Prerequisites

Before you begin with this guide, you should have:

  • Ubuntu Server Latest installed
  • Root privileges or a user with sudo access
  • Internet connection

Step 1: Install the Required Dependencies

Immich requires Python 3.6 or higher and pip3 to be installed on your system. To install these dependencies, run the following command:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install python3 python3-pip

This will update your package list and install Python 3 and pip3.

Step 2: Clone Immich Repository

Next, we need to clone the Immich repository from GitHub. To do this, we will use Git. If Git is not installed on your system, run the following command to install it:

sudo apt-get install git

Once Git is installed, run the following command to clone the Immich repository:

git clone https://github.com/alextran1502/immich.git

This will create a new directory named "immich" in your current working directory.

Step 3: Install Immich

Now that we have cloned the Immich repository, we can install it using pip3. To do this, navigate to the "immich" directory:

cd immich

And run the following command:

sudo pip3 install -r requirements.txt

This will install all the required packages for Immich.

Step 4: Configure Immich

Before we can start using Immich, we need to configure it. You can find the configuration file named "config.ini" in the "immich" directory. Open this file using your favorite text editor and edit the following settings:

  • [server]: This section is used to configure the server settings. You can leave these settings as is.
  • [certificates]: This section is used to configure SSL certificates. If you want to use your own certificates, replace the existing certificate and key files with your own files. If you don't want to use SSL, you can comment out the "key_file" and "cert_file" options.
  • [filters]: This section is used to configure filters. You can define your own filters here based on your requirements.

Step 5: Start Immich

Now that we have installed and configured Immich, we can start it using the following command:

sudo python3 immich.py

This will start the Immich server on port 8080.

Step 6: Test Immich

To test that Immich is working as expected, open your web browser and change the proxy settings to point to your Ubuntu Server's IP address on port 8080. Once you have done this, navigate to a website, and you should see the traffic being intercepted by Immich.

Conclusion

In this tutorial, we have shown you how to install and configure Immich on Ubuntu Server Latest. You can now intercept, modify and replay HTTP/HTTPS traffic using Immich.
