Provides a requests- or niquests-flavored session to solve BasedFlare challenges automatically. Also includes utility functions to solve the challenges manually.

basedflare-session-redux

A package that extends Python's niquests or requests session to solve some BasedFlare Proof of Work (PoW) challenges automatically. It also includes utility functions to solve the challenges manually.

Please note that this package is a work in progress and may not function in all cases. Currently, it supports the argon2 and sha256 PoW challenges. Any other challenge, such as a CAPTCHA, will raise an exception.

Fork notice: This is a port of basedflare-session to support bothniquests and requests. It uses my anyquests package for that. It also introduces some improvements, such as correctly handling sites that do not use BasedFlare. Big thanks to @loynet and @jawah for their work! I intend to maintain this fork up to date with the original package, as well as introduce further improvements where applicable.

Rename notice: This project was briefly knows as basedflare-session-niquests. Since release 0.3.0 it is fully renamed to basedflare-session-redux. The project under the previous name is now archived on PyPI and will not be updated.

Usage

Suppose example.com is a website that requires you to solve a challenge before you can access it. Below is a simple example of how to use the package:

from basedflare_session_redux import BasedSession

# Create a new session
session = BasedSession()

# Use the session to send a GET request
response = session.get('https://example.com')

# Print the response
print(response.text)
