Overview
|
||
|
|
=========
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Mitmproxy has a powerful scripting API that allows you to control almost any
|
||
|
|
aspect of traffic being proxied. In fact, much of mitmproxy's own core
|
||
|
|
functionality is implemented using the exact same API exposed to scripters (see
|
||
|
|
:src:`mitmproxy/builtins`).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Scripting is event driven, with named handlers on the script object called at
|
||
|
|
appropriate points of mitmproxy's operation. Here's a complete mitmproxy script
|
||
|
|
that adds a new header to every HTTP response before it is returned to the
|
||
|
|
client:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. literalinclude:: ../../examples/add_header.py
|
||
|
|
:caption: :src:`examples/add_header.py`
|
||
|
|
:language: python
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
All events that deal with an HTTP request get an instance of
|
||
|
|
:py:class:`~mitmproxy.models.HTTPFlow`, which we can use to manipulate the
|
||
|
|
response itself. We can now run this script using mitmdump or mitmproxy as
|
||
|
|
follows:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
>>> mitmdump -s add_header.py
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The new header will be added to all responses passing through the proxy.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
mitmproxy comes with a variety of example inline scripts, which demonstrate
|
||
|
|
many basic tasks.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Running scripts in parallel
|
||
|
|
---------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
We have a single flow primitive, so when a script is blocking, other requests are not processed.
|
||
|
|
While that's usually a very desirable behaviour, blocking scripts can be run threaded by using the
|
||
|
|
:py:obj:`mitmproxy.script.concurrent` decorator.
|
||
|
|
**If your script does not block, you should avoid the overhead of the decorator.**
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. literalinclude:: ../../examples/nonblocking.py
|
||
|
|

||
|

:language: python
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Make scripts configurable with arguments
|
||
|
|
----------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Sometimes, you want to pass runtime arguments to the inline script. This can be simply done by
|
||
|
|
surrounding the script call with quotes, e.g. ```mitmdump -s 'script.py --foo 42'``.
|
||
|
|
The arguments are then exposed in the start event:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. literalinclude:: ../../examples/modify_response_body.py
|
||
|
|
:caption: examples/modify_response_body.py
|

:language: python
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Running scripts on saved flows
|
||
|
|
------------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Sometimes, we want to run a script on :py:class:`~mitmproxy.models.Flow` objects that are already
|
||
|
|
complete. This happens when you start a script, and then load a saved set of flows from a file
|
||
|
|
(see the "scripted data transformation" example :ref:`here <mitmdump>`).
|
||
|
|
It 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**, **responseheaders**, **response**, **error**, **done**.
|
||
|
|
If the flow doesn't have a **response** or **error** associated with it, the matching events will
|
||
|
|
be skipped.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Spaces in the script path
|
||
|
|
-------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
By default, spaces are interpreted as a separator between the inline script and its arguments
|
||
|
|
(e.g. ``-s 'foo.py 42'``). Consequently, the script path needs to be wrapped in a separate pair of
|
||
|
|
quotes if it contains spaces: ``-s '\'./foo bar/baz.py\' 42'``.
