# API Changelog
We try to avoid them, but this page lists breaking changes in the mitmproxy addon API.
## mitmproxy 7.0
#### Connection Events
We've revised mitmproxy's connection-specific event hooks as part of the new proxy core. The `.client_conn` and
`.server_conn` objects have major API changes across the board. See the new
[event hook documentation]({{< relref "addons-api#ConnectionEvents" >}}) for details.
| Attribute | Client (v6) | Server (v6) | mitmproxy v7 |
|----------------|-------------|-------------------|--------------|
| Remote IP:Port | `.address` | `.ip_address` | `.peername` |
| Local IP:Port | ❌ | `.source_address` | `.sockname` |
| Remote Domain | N/A | `.address` | `.address` |
As the passed objects are different now, we've also taken this opportunity to introduce more consistent event names:
| mitmproxy 6 | mitmproxy 7 |
| ------------------ | --------------------- |
| `clientconnect` | `client_connected` |
| `clientdisconnect` | `client_disconnected` |
| ❌ | `server_connect` |
| `serverconnect` | `server_connected` |
| `serverdisconnect` | `server_disconnected` |
#### Logging
The `log` event has been renamed to `add_log`. This fixes a consistent source of errors where users imported
modules with the name "log", which were then inadvertedly picked up.
#### Contentviews
Contentviews now implement `render_priority` instead of `should_render`. This enables additional specialization, for
example one can now write contentviews that pretty-print only specific JSON responses.
See the [contentview.py]({{< relref "addons-examples#contentview" >}}) example for details.
#### WebSocket Flows
mitmproxy 6 had a custom WebSocketFlow class, which had
[ugly co-dependencies with the related HTTPFlow](https://github.com/mitmproxy/mitmproxy/issues/4425). Long story short,
WebSocketFlow is no more and instead HTTPFlow has a neat
[`.websocket` attribute]({{< relref "api/mitmproxy.http.md#HTTPFlow.websocket" >}}). All WebSocket flows are now passed
the originating `HTTPFlow` with this attribute set. As always, existing dumpfiles are automatically converted on load.
#### Certificates
mitmproxy now uses `cryptography` instead of `pyOpenSSL` to generate certificates. As a consequence, the API of
`mitmproxy.certs` has changed.
#### HTTP Headers
`mitmproxy.net.http.Headers` -> `mitmproxy.http.Headers` for consistency.
