    """Internet traffic generator. Utilizes real-time google search trends by specified parameters.
    country = country code ISO 3166-1 Alpha-2 code (https://www.iso.org/obp/ui/),
    language = country-language code ISO-639 and ISO-3166 (https://www.fincher.org/Utilities/CountryLanguageList.shtml),
    category = сategory of interest of a user (defaults to 'h'):
               'all' (all), 'b' (business), 'e' (entertainment), 
               'm' (health), 's' (sports), 't' (sci/tech), 'h' (top stories);
    headless = True/False (defaults to True);
    tabs = limit the number of tabs in browser (defaults to 3).
    """
ft.crawl()

Example

Using realtime search trends of a user located in Turkey, who speaks Kurdish and is interested in hot stories

Find Turkey country code (ISO 3166-1 Alpha-2 code):

  • country = "TR"

Find Turkey country-language code (ISO-639 and ISO-3166):

  • english "en-TR",
  • kurdish "ku-TR",
  • turkish "tr-TR".

Set the category ('h', because the user in the example is interested in hot stories):

  • category = 'h'

Starting in none-headless mode:

  • headless=False
from fake_traffic import FakeTraffic

ft = FakeTraffic(country="TR", language="ku-TR", category='h', headless=False)
ft.crawl()

P.S. you can select language from other country. For example, such combinations are also correct:

FakeTraffic(country="TR", language="ar-TR").crawl()
FakeTraffic(country="US", language="he-IL").crawl()
FakeTraffic(country="DE", language="hi-IN").crawl()

Other examples
