Real Headers is a Python library that generates random HTTP headers and browser fingerprints that mimic real browsers.
Real Headers is a Python library that generates random HTTP headers and browser fingerprints that mimic real browsers. It is designed to be used in web scraping and automation tasks, where realistic headers are essential for avoiding detection and ensuring proper functionality.
You can install the real_headers
library using pip:
pip install real_headers
To generate a random set of HTTP headers that mimic real browsers:
from real_headers import real_headers
headers = real_headers()
print(headers)
{
'Accept': 'text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,image/webp,*/*;q=0.8',
'Accept-Encoding': 'gzip, deflate, sdch',
'Accept-Language': 'en-US,en;q=0.8',
'Cache-Control': 'max-age=0',
'Connection': 'keep-alive',
'Upgrade-Insecure-Requests': '1',
'User-Agent': 'Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Ubuntu Chromium/58.0.3029.110 Chrome/58.0.3029.110 Safari/537.36'
}
To get a real and random user agent string:
from real_headers import real_user_agent
user_agent = real_user_agent()
print(user_agent)
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/129.0.0.0 Safari/537.36
After installing, you can also use the package directly from the command line.
