As discussed in [the Flow View section of the mitmproxy overview](@!urlTo("mitmproxy.html")!@) allows you to inspect and manipulate flows. When inspecting a single flow, mitmproxy uses a number of heuristics to show a friendly view of various content types; if mitmproxy cannot show a friendly view, mitmproxy defaults to a __raw__ view.
|
|
|
|
By default, mitmproxy has support for displaying the following content types in a friendly view:
|
|
|
|
- __1__: Hex
|
|
- __2__: HTML
|
|
- __3__: Image
|
|
- __4__: JavaScript
|
|
- __5__: JSON
|
|
- __6__: URL-encoded data
|
|
- __7__: XML
|
|
- __8__: AMF (requires PyAMF)
|
|
- __9__: Protobuf (requires protobuf library)
|
|
|
|
Each content type invokes a different flow viewer to parse the data and display the friendly view. Users can add support for custom views by:
|
|
|
|
- __1__: Adding a new View class to contentview.py; and
|
|
- __2__: Adding the hotkey to new view to flowview.py
|
|
|
|
## Adding a View class to contentview.py
|
|
|
|
The viewers used by mitmproxy to present a friendly view of various content types are stored in contentview.py. Reviewing this file shows a number of classes named ViewSomeDataType, each with the properties: name, prompt, and content\_types and a function named "\_\_call\_\_".
|
|
|
|
Adding code to parse additional data types is as simple as writing a new View class. It should have the same properties and function as the other View classes. The name property should be a string describing the contents and view; the prompt property should be a two item tuple where the first item is a string that will be used to display the View's type and the second item is a one character string that will be the hotkey used to select the view; the content-type property should be a list of strings of content\_types that the view can parse. Note that mitmproxy will use the content\_types to try and heuristically show a friendly view of content and that you can override the built-in views by populating content\_types with values for content\_types that are already parsed -- e.g. "image/png".

|
|
After defining the name, prompt, and content\_type properties of the class, you should write the \_\_call\_\_ function, which will parse the request/response data and provide a friendly view of the data. The \_\_call\_\_ function should take the following arguments: self, hdrs, content, limit; hdrs is a ODictCaseless object containing the headers of the request/response; content is the content of the request/response, and limit is an integer representing the amount of data to display in the view window.
|
|
|
|
The \_\_call\_\_ function returns two values: (1) a string describing the parsed data; and (2) the parsed data for friendly display. The parsed data to be displayed should be a list of strings formatted for display. You can use the \_view\_text function in contentview.py to format text for display. Alternatively, you can display content as a series of key-value pairs; to do so, prepare a list of lists, where each list item is a two item list -- a key that describes the data, and then the data itself; after preparing the list of lists, run common.format_keyvals against it to prepare it as text for display.
