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. diff --git a/examples/add_header.py b/examples/add_header.py index 6ddeab3d..0c0593d1 100644 --- a/examples/add_header.py +++ b/examples/add_header.py @@ -1,6 +1,2 @@ -""" - This script adds a new header to all responses. -""" - -def response(ctx, f): - f.response.headers["newheader"] = ["foo"] +def response(context, flow): + flow.response.headers["newheader"] = ["foo"] |
