Aldo Cortesi a9b4560187 Refine handling of HTTP CONNECT
- CONNECT requests do not generate the usual http events. Instead, they
generate the http_connect event and handlers then have the option of setting an
error response to abort the connect.
- The connect handler is called for both upstream proxy and regular proxy CONNECTs.

Events
=======
General
-------
.. list-table::
:widths: 40 60
:header-rows: 0
* - .. py:function:: configure(options, updated)
- Called once on startup, and whenever options change.
*options*
An ``options.Options`` object with the total current configuration
state of mitmproxy.
*updated*
A set of strings indicating which configuration options have been
updated. This contains all options when *configure* is called on
startup, and only changed options subsequently.
* - .. py:function:: done()
- Called once when the script shuts down, either because it's been
unloaded, or because the proxy itself is shutting down.
* - .. py:function:: log(entry)
- Called whenever an event log is added.
*entry*
An ``controller.LogEntry`` object - ``entry.msg`` is the log text,
and ``entry.level`` is the urgency level ("debug", "info", "warn",
"error").
* - .. py:function:: start()
- Called once on startup, before any other events. If you return a
value from this event, it will replace the current addon. This
allows you to, "boot into" an addon implemented as a class instance
from the module level.
* - .. py:function:: tick()
- Called at a regular sub-second interval as long as the addon is
executing.
Connection
----------
.. list-table::
:widths: 40 60
:header-rows: 0
* - .. py:function:: clientconnect(root_layer)
- Called when a client initiates a connection to the proxy. Note that a
connection can correspond to multiple HTTP requests.
*root_layer*
The root layer (see `mitmproxy.proxy.protocol` for an explanation what
the root layer is), provides transparent access to all attributes
of the :py:class:`~mitmproxy.proxy.RootContext`. For example,
``root_layer.client_conn.address`` gives the remote address of the
connecting client.
* - .. py:function:: clientdisconnect(root_layer)
- Called when a client disconnects from the proxy.
*root_layer*
The root layer object.
* - .. py:function:: next_layer(layer)
- Called whenever layers are switched. You may change which layer will
be used by returning a new layer object from this event.
*layer*
The next layer, as determined by mitmpmroxy.
* - .. py:function:: serverconnect(server_conn)
- Called before the proxy initiates a connection to the target server.
Note that a connection can correspond to multiple HTTP requests.
*server_conn*
A ``ServerConnection`` object. It is guaranteed to have a non-None
``address`` attribute.
* - .. py:function:: serverdisconnect(server_conn)
- Called when the proxy has closed the server connection.
*server_conn*
A ``ServerConnection`` object.
HTTP Events
-----------
.. list-table::
:widths: 40 60
:header-rows: 0
* - .. py:function:: http_connect(flow)
- Called when we receive an HTTP CONNECT request. Setting a non 2xx
response on the flow will return the response to the client abort the
connection. CONNECT requests and responses do not generate the usual
HTTP handler events. CONNECT requests are only valid in regular and
upstream proxy modes.
*flow*
A ``models.HTTPFlow`` object. The flow is guaranteed to have
non-None ``request`` and ``requestheaders`` attributes.
* - .. py:function:: request(flow)
- Called when a client request has been received.
*flow*
A ``models.HTTPFlow`` object. At this point, the flow is
guaranteed to have a non-None ``request`` attribute.
* - .. py:function:: requestheaders(flow)
- Called when the headers of a client request have been received, but
before the request body is read.
*flow*
A ``models.HTTPFlow`` object. At this point, the flow is
guaranteed to have a non-None ``request`` attribute.
* - .. py:function:: responseheaders(flow)
- Called when the headers of a server response have been received, but
before the response body is read.
*flow*
A ``models.HTTPFlow`` object. At this point, the flow is
guaranteed to have a non-none ``request`` and ``response``
attributes, however the response will have no content.
* - .. py:function:: response(flow)
- Called when a server response has been received.
*flow*
A ``models.HTTPFlow`` object. At this point, the flow is
guaranteed to have a non-none ``request`` and ``response``
attributes. The raw response body will be in ``response.body``,
unless response streaming has been enabled.
* - .. py:function:: error(flow)
- Called when a flow error has occurred, 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.
*flow*
The flow containing the error. It is guaranteed to have
non-None ``error`` attribute.
WebSocket Events
-----------------
.. list-table::
:widths: 40 60
:header-rows: 0
* - .. py:function:: websockets_handshake(flow)
- Called when a client wants to establish a WebSockets connection. The
WebSockets-specific headers can be manipulated to manipulate the
handshake. The ``flow`` object is guaranteed to have a non-None
``request`` attribute.
*flow*
The flow containing the HTTP websocket handshake request. The
object is guaranteed to have a non-None ``request`` attribute.
TCP Events
----------
These events are called only if the connection is in :ref:`TCP mode
<tcpproxy>`. So, for instance, TCP events are not called for ordinary HTTP/S
connections.
.. list-table::
:widths: 40 60
:header-rows: 0
* - .. py:function:: tcp_end(flow)
- Called when TCP streaming ends.
*flow*
A ``models.TCPFlow`` object.
* - .. py:function:: tcp_error(flow)
- Called when a TCP error occurs - e.g. the connection closing
unexpectedly.
*flow*
A ``models.TCPFlow`` object.
* - .. py:function:: tcp_message(flow)
- Called a TCP payload is received from the client or server. The
sender and receiver are identifiable. The most recent message will be
``flow.messages[-1]``. The message is user-modifiable.
*flow*
A ``models.TCPFlow`` object.
* - .. py:function:: tcp_start(flow)
- Called when TCP streaming starts.
*flow*
A ``models.TCPFlow`` object.
