__mitmproxy__ has a powerful scripting API that allows you to modify flows
on-the-fly or rewrite previously saved flows locally.
The mitmproxy scripting API is event driven - a script is simply a Python
module that exposes a set of event methods. Here's a complete mitmproxy script
that adds a new header to every HTTP response before it is returned to the
client:
$!example("examples/add_header.py")!$
The first argument to each event method is an instance of ScriptContext that
lets the script interact with the global mitmproxy state. The __response__
event also gets an instance of Flow, which we can use to manipulate the
response itself.
## Events
### start(ScriptContext)
Called once on startup, before any other events.
###clientconnect(ScriptContext, ClientConnect)
Called when a client initiates a connection to the proxy. Note that
a connection can correspond to multiple HTTP requests.
###request(ScriptContext, Flow)
Called when a client request has been received. The __Flow__ object is
guaranteed to have a non-None __request__ attribute.
### response(ScriptContext, Flow)
Called when a server response has been received. The __Flow__ object is
guaranteed to have non-None __request__ and __response__ attributes.
### error(ScriptContext, Flow)
Called when a flow error has occured, e.g. invalid server responses, or
interrupted connections. This is distinct from a valid server HTTP error
response, which is simply a response with an HTTP error code. The __Flow__
object is guaranteed to have non-None __request__ and __error__ attributes.
### clientdisconnect(ScriptContext, ClientDisconnect)
Called when a client disconnects from the proxy.
### done(ScriptContext)
Called once on script shutdown, after any other events.
## Scripts on saved flows
There are a few circumstances in which a script may run on Flows that are
already complete. For example, you could start a script, and then load a saved
set of flows from a file (see the scripted data transformation example on the
[mitmdump](@!urlTo("mitmdump.html")!@) page). This also happens when you run a
one-shot script on a single flow through the _|_ (pipe) shortcut in mitmproxy.
In this case, there are no client connections, and the events are run in the
following order: __start__, __request__, __response__, __error__, __done__. If
the flow doesn't have a __response__ or __error__ associated with it, the
matching event will be skipped.
