If I am using webRequest.onBeforeRequest
to intercept URLs that match certain patterns. If a match is found, the callback function is called and it performs somethings before the request is sent.
If no match is found, I want to do other things before the request is sent and these other things needs to be performed before each other request that has not been matched (i.e. not one-time task but needs to be done repeatedly after each check).
Is this ever possible? I can only see a way to do things when a match is found, but not when no match is found.
This is a sample code for doing something when a match is found. How can I add: when no match is found, do this task (for each examined request before the request is sent).
p=["https://*.yahoo.com/*"];
function logURL(requestDetails)
{
console.log("inside logURL");
console.log("*******************************");
console.log("Loading: " + requestDetails.url);
console.log("*******************************");
}//end logUTL
browser.webRequest.onBeforeRequest.addListener(
logURL,
{urls: [p],
types: ["main_frame"]}
);
