Is there a way for searching plain text in Mitmproxy views (Flow list, Flow view, Keybindings, Commands)? I can filter the flows by pressing f but I'm really missing feature like / in Vim. It would be faster to navigate to the right flow and in the meanwhile preserve the current view_filter.

It's not documented but in the Flow view -> Response there is a search (/) functionality which unfortunately highlights the whole matching line making it difficult to read.

Currently, I use the search feature of tmux, but it can find only on the current viewport.

    Instead of starting `mitmproxy` you can start `mitmweb`that opens up a port that provides a web based GUI. Using your favorite web browser you can then easily search and highlight your find string. – Robert Sep 11 '20 at 10:28
  • thanks for the comment. In my case, I'm using MITM remotely through the terminal where there is no chance to use GUI. :| – Lajos Sep 11 '20 at 15:38
  • A web GUI is never shown in the terminal. It just opens up a TCP port where you connect using a web-browser. Via SSH you can use SSH port-forwarding to forward this port to your local machine. – Robert Sep 11 '20 at 16:56
