Change upstream proxy for https flow

My eventual goal is to dynamically change the upstream proxy of my https flow based on the domain of the destination server or the value of a header. For now, I’m just trying to get a minimal example working following the example of https://github.com/mitmproxy/mitmproxy/blob/master/examples/complex/change_upstream_proxy.py but I’m not getting the expected results. I run mitmdump in upstream mode like so: mitmdump -U https://default-proxy:port -s change-upstream.py With this script def requ…
