# xiHeaders - modify request headers

This is yet another extension to modify request headers. It stands out by being

extremely simple (~100 lines of code).

## Rules

Rules are defined as a JSON. Each rule has the following properties:

-   pattern: the URL pattern this rule applies to. Patterns can include `*` as

    a wildcard.

-   header: the name of the header

-   value: the new value

-   action: add|replace|remove [default: replace]

## Examples

Show reddit images instead of redirecting to a HTML page:

```json

{

  "pattern": "https://i.redd.it/*",

  "header": "Accept",

  "value": "image/*"

}

```

A similar rule can also be used for `i.imgur.com`.
