addListener syntax

Parameters

callback

A function that will be called when this event occurs. The function will be passed the following arguments:

details

object. Details about the request. See details below.

filter

webRequest.RequestFilter. A filter that restricts the events that will be sent to this listener.

extraInfoSpecOptional

array of string. Extra options for the event. You can pass just one value:

• "responseHeaders": include responseHeaders in the details object passed to the listener

Additional objects

details

requestId

string. The ID of the request. Request IDs are unique within a browser session, so you can use them to relate different events associated with the same request.

url

string. Target of the request.

method

string. Standard HTTP method: for example, "GET" or "POST".

frameId

integer. Zero if the request happens in the main frame; a positive value is the ID of a subframe in which the request happens. If the document of a (sub-)frame is loaded (type is main_frame or sub_frame), frameId indicates the ID of this frame, not the ID of the outer frame. Frame IDs are unique within a tab.

parentFrameId

integer. ID of the frame that contains the frame which sent the request. Set to -1 if no parent frame exists.

tabId

integer. The ID of the tab in which the request takes place. Set to -1 if the request isn't related to a tab.

type

webRequest.ResourceType. The type of resource being requested: for example, "image", "script", "stylesheet".

timeStamp

number. The time when this event fired, in milliseconds since the epoch.

originUrl

string. URL of the resource that triggered this request. Note that this may not be the same as the URL of the page into which the requested resource will be loaded. For example, if a document triggers a load in a different window through the target attribute of a link, or a CSS document includes an image using the url() functional notation, then this will be the URL of the original document or of the CSS document, respectively.

ipOptional

string. The server IP address that the request was actually sent to. Note that it may be a literal IPv6 address.

fromCache

boolean. Indicates if this response was fetched from disk cache.

statusCode

integer. Standard HTTP status code returned by the server.

responseHeadersOptional

webRequest.HttpHeaders. The HTTP response headers that were received along with this response.

statusLine

string. HTTP status line of the response or the 'HTTP/0.9 200 OK' string for HTTP/0.9 responses (i.e., responses that lack a status line) or an empty string if there are no headers.
