What is sliprequests?

sliprequests is a Python HTTP library that uses the Camoufox anti-detection browser under the hood. It provides a 100% compatible API with the popular requests library — just change your import statement and you're done.

The Problem

Web scraping with traditional HTTP clients hits walls:

# ❌ Gets blocked by Cloudflare
import requests
r = requests.get("https://example.com")
# 403 Forbidden / 503 Challenge

The Solution

Use sliprequests — it launches a real browser that renders JavaScript and passes bot detection:

# ✅ Bypasses Cloudflare automatically
import sliprequests as requests
r = requests.get("https://example.com")
# 200 OK — full rendered page

What's the Difference?

Feature	requests	sliprequests
Simple API	✅	✅
Cloudflare bypass	❌	✅
JavaScript rendering	❌	✅
Anti-fingerprint	❌	✅
Browser-like headers	❌	✅
Drop-in replacement	—	✅

Installation

pip install sliprequests

That's it. The camoufox browser and all dependencies are installed automatically. No extra configuration needed.

Requirements

• Python 3.8+
• Supported OS: Windows, macOS, Linux
• No need to install Playwright or Camoufox manually — pip install sliprequests handles everything.

---

Quick Start

Basic Usage

import sliprequests as requests

# GET request — renders JavaScript like a real browser
r = requests.get("https://www.cloudflare.com/")
print(r.status_code)  # 200
print(r.text)         # Full rendered page content
print(r.html)         # Raw HTML for parsing (xpath, BeautifulSoup, etc.)

POST Request

import sliprequests as requests

# POST with JSON body
r = requests.post("https://httpbin.org/post", json={"key": "value"})
print(r.json())

# POST with form data
r = requests.post("https://httpbin.org/post", data={"key": "value"})
print(r.json())

Using Session

import sliprequests as requests

# Session maintains cookies across requests
with requests.Session() as s:
    s.get("https://httpbin.org/cookies/set/token/abc123")
    r = s.get("https://httpbin.org/cookies")
    print(r.json())  # {'cookies': {'token': 'abc123'}}

Parsing with lxml xpath

import sliprequests as requests
from lxml import html

r = requests.get("https://github.com/trending")

doc = html.fromstring(r.html)
# Extract all h1 text
titles = doc.xpath("//h1/text()")

# Extract links
links = doc.xpath("//a/@href")

# Extract with conditions
python_repos = doc.xpath("//a[contains(@href, 'python')]/text()")

Parsing with BeautifulSoup

import sliprequests as requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup

r = requests.get("https://github.com/trending")

soup = BeautifulSoup(r.html, "lxml")

# Find elements
h1 = soup.find("h1").text
links = soup.find_all("a")

# CSS selectors
repos = soup.select("h2 a")
prices = soup.select(".price")

Using CSS Selectors (lxml)

import sliprequests as requests
from lxml import html

r = requests.get("https://example.com")
doc = html.fromstring(r.html)

# CSS selectors
headings = doc.cssselect("h1, h2, h3")
nav_links = doc.cssselect("nav a")

API Reference

sliprequests mirrors the requests API exactly. Every method, parameter, and return type is compatible.

HTTP Methods

requests.get(url, **kwargs)
requests.post(url, **kwargs)
requests.put(url, **kwargs)
requests.delete(url, **kwargs)
requests.patch(url, **kwargs)
requests.head(url, **kwargs)
requests.options(url, **kwargs)

Parameters

Parameter	Description	Example
params	URL query parameters	params={"q": "python"}
data	Request body (form data or raw)	data={"key": "value"}
json	JSON request body	json={"key": "value"}
headers	Custom HTTP headers	headers={"Accept": "text/html"}
cookies	Request cookies	cookies={"session": "abc"}
timeout	Request timeout in seconds	timeout=30
allow_redirects	Follow redirects	allow_redirects=False
proxies	Proxy configuration	proxies={"https": "socks5://..."}
auth	HTTP authentication	auth=("user", "pass")
stream	Stream response body	stream=True
verify	Verify SSL certificates	verify=False
cert	Client certificate	cert=("cert.pem", "key.pem")

Response Object

The Response object is fully compatible with requests.Response:

r = requests.get("https://httpbin.org/get")

# Status & metadata
r.status_code          # 200
r.ok                   # True (status_code < 400)
r.reason               # "OK"
r.url                  # Final URL after redirects
r.headers              # Response headers
r.cookies              # Response cookies
r.elapsed              # Time taken (timedelta)

# Content
r.text                 # Decoded text (str)
r.content              # Raw bytes
r.html                 # Full rendered HTML — sliprequests exclusive!
r.json()               # Parsed JSON
r.encoding             # Detected encoding

# History (redirects)
r.history              # List of previous Response objects

The .html Property

sliprequests adds an .html property to the Response object that returns the full rendered HTML of the page. This is the HTML after JavaScript execution, making it ideal for parsing with lxml, BeautifulSoup, or CSS selectors.

import sliprequests as requests
from lxml import html
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup

r = requests.get("https://github.com/trending")

# Using lxml xpath
doc = html.fromstring(r.html)
repos = doc.xpath("//h2/a/text()")

# Using BeautifulSoup
soup = BeautifulSoup(r.html, "lxml")
titles = soup.select("h2 a")

Session Object

The Session object persists settings and cookies across requests:

s = requests.Session()

# Persistent headers
s.headers.update({"Authorization": "Bearer token123"})

# Persistent cookies
s.cookies.set("session", "abc123")

# Persistent proxy
s.proxies = {"https": "socks5://user:pass@host:port"}

# All requests through this session use these settings
r1 = s.get("https://example.com/login")
r2 = s.get("https://example.com/dashboard")  # cookies carried over

Session Attributes

Attribute	Description	Default
headers	Default headers	Browser UA
cookies	Default cookies	{}
auth	Default auth	None
proxies	Default proxy	{}
params	Default URL params	{}
verify	SSL verification	True
cert	Client certificate	None
timeout	Default timeout	30
allow_redirects	Follow redirects	True
stream	Stream responses	False

Proxies

sliprequests supports SOCKS5 and HTTP proxies:

import sliprequests as requests

# SOCKS5 proxy
proxies = {
    "https": "socks5://user:password@host:port"
}
r = requests.get("https://httpbin.org/ip", proxies=proxies)
print(r.json())  # Shows proxy IP

# HTTP proxy
proxies = {
    "http": "http://user:password@host:port",
    "https": "http://user:password@host:port"
}
r = requests.get("https://httpbin.org/ip", proxies=proxies)

Authentication

import sliprequests as requests

# Basic Auth
r = requests.get("https://httpbin.org/basic-auth/user/pass",
                  auth=("user", "pass"))

# Bearer Token
headers = {"Authorization": "Bearer your-token-here"}
r = requests.get("https://api.example.com/data", headers=headers)

Timeouts

import sliprequests as requests

# Timeout in seconds
r = requests.get("https://slow-api.example.com", timeout=10)

# No timeout (not recommended)
r = requests.get("https://example.com", timeout=None)

SSL Verification

import sliprequests as requests

# Disable SSL verification (not recommended for production)
r = requests.get("https://self-signed.example.com", verify=False)

Architecture

sliprequests uses a dual-mode architecture:

1. Server Mode (preferred): Connects to a local camofox-browser REST API service (port 9377). Zero extra memory overhead — the browser runs as a system service.

2. Subprocess Mode (fallback): If no server is available, automatically launches a Camoufox browser in a subprocess. This is the default for most users.

How GET Requests Work

When you call requests.get():

1. The URL is opened in a Camoufox browser tab (like a real user visiting the page)
2. The browser renders the page, executes JavaScript, and loads all resources
3. The fully rendered HTML is returned in response.html
4. The visible text is returned in response.text

How POST/PUT/PATCH/DELETE Work

Non-GET requests use the browser's fetch() API:

1. The request is sent via JavaScript fetch() inside the browser
2. Supports all HTTP methods and request bodies
3. Returns the response status, headers, and body

Comparison with requests

What's the same

Everything that matters for day-to-day usage:

import sliprequests as requests

# All these work exactly like requests
r = requests.get(url)
r = requests.post(url, json=data)
r = requests.get(url, params=params)
r = requests.get(url, headers=headers)
r = requests.get(url, cookies=cookies)
r = requests.get(url, proxies=proxies)
r = requests.get(url, auth=auth)
r = requests.get(url, timeout=30)

# Response object
r.status_code
r.text
r.content
r.json()
r.headers
r.cookies
r.url
r.ok
r.reason

# Session
s = requests.Session()
s.headers.update(...)
s.cookies.set(...)
s.get(url)
s.post(url, data=data)
s.close()

# Context manager
with requests.Session() as s:
    s.get(url)

What's different

Feature	requests	sliprequests
Response.html	❌ Not available	✅ Full rendered HTML
GET requests	Direct HTTP	Browser page navigation
POST/PUT/PATCH	Direct HTTP	Browser fetch() API
Memory usage	Low (~1MB)	Higher (~300MB, browser)
Speed	Fast (~100ms)	Slower (~5-10s)
JavaScript	Not executed	Fully executed
Anti-bot	❌	✅ Cloudflare, DataDome, etc.

When to use sliprequests

• ✅ Scraping sites with Cloudflare, DataDome, or other anti-bot protection
• ✅ Sites that require JavaScript rendering
• ✅ Need browser-like behavior (fingerprints, cookies, etc.)
• ✅ API reverse engineering (when you need to understand JS-rendered responses)

When to use requests

• ✅ Simple API calls without anti-bot protection
• ✅ High-throughput scraping (thousands of requests)
• ✅ Low memory environments
• ✅ Speed-critical applications

Troubleshooting

Q: "ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'camoufox'"

pip install sliprequests
# camoufox is installed automatically as a dependency

Q: "Browser failed to start"

Make sure your system has enough memory (at least 512MB free). Camoufox uses ~300MB per browser instance.

Q: "Connection refused" on port 9377

This is normal — the server mode requires a separate camofox-browser Node.js service. If you don't have it, sliprequests automatically falls back to subprocess mode.

Q: Slow performance

sliprequests is slower than requests because it launches a real browser and renders JavaScript. This is the tradeoff for bypassing anti-bot detection. For better performance:

• Using Session objects to reuse browser instances
• Using server mode (port 9377) to avoid browser startup overhead

Q: Memory usage is high

Each browser instance uses ~300MB RAM. Use Session objects to reuse instances:

# ❌ Creates new browser each time
for url in urls:
    r = requests.get(url)

# ✅ Reuses same browser
with requests.Session() as s:
    for url in urls:
        r = s.get(url)
