StealthKit

Overview

StealthKit is a Python module that provides a stealthy session handler for web scraping and automated requests. It mimics real user behavior by rotating user agents, setting referers, handling cookies, managing proxies, and implementing retry logic.

Features

  • User-Agent Rotation: Automatically rotates user agents from Chrome, Edge, and Safari across different OS platforms (Windows, MacOS, Linux).
  • Random Referer Selection: Simulates real browsing behavior by sending requests with randomized referers from search engines.
  • Cookie Handling: Fetches and stores cookies from specified URLs to maintain session persistence.
  • Proxy Support: Allows requests to be routed through a provided proxy.
  • Retry Logic: Retries failed requests up to three times before giving up.
  • RESTful Requests: Supports GET, POST, PUT, and DELETE methods with automatic proxy integration.

Installation

pip install stealthkit

Basic Usage

from stealthkit import StealthSession

# Create a stealth session
sr = StealthSession()

# Fetch cookies from a base URL
sr.fetch_cookies("https://www.example.com")

# Make a GET request
response = sr.get("https://www.example.com/api")

# Print the response JSON if successful
if response:
    print(response.json())
else:
    print("Failed to fetch data")

Advanced Usage

1. Custom Headers

custom_headers = {
    "Referer": "https://www.example.com",
    "Accept": "application/json",
}
sr.set_headers(custom_headers)

2. Using Proxies

proxies = {"http": "http://proxy.example.com:8080", "https": "https://proxy.example.com:8080"}
sr = StealthSession(proxies=proxies)

3. Retries

sr = StealthSession(retries=5)

4. Fetching Data with Custom Headers

sr.fetch_cookies("https://www.example.com")
custom_headers = {"User-Agent": "Custom-UA"}
sr.set_headers(custom_headers)
response = sr.get("https://www.example.com/api")
print(response.text)

5. Handling Different HTTP Methods

sr.post("https://www.example.com/api", json={"key": "value"})
sr.put("https://www.example.com/api", json={"key": "updated_value"})
sr.delete("https://www.example.com/api")

6. Clearing Cookies

sr.clear_cookies()

7. Retry using Tenacity (nightly)

from tenacity import retry

@retry
def get_response(url):
    sr = StealthSession()
    response = sr.get(url)
    return response.json()

get_response("https://www.example.com/api")
