Using proxy from desired location for scrapping

To make scrapping browser start with a proxy from a desired location just add proxy: {countryCode: '**' } to the list of params when calling the launch() function.

  const { browser } = await gologin.launch({proxy: {countryCode: 'DE' }});

Benefits of running scraping browser with provided proxies

Setup proxies super fast
Bypass geo-restrictions by selecting specific country codes for proxies.
Improve scraping efficiency with reduced chances of IP bans.
Maintain anonymity and privacy during web scraping activities.
Access localized content for more accurate and relevant data collection.
Increase success rates of data retrieval with diverse proxy options.
Optimize resource usage by automating proxy management within the anti-detect browser setup.

Code sample using Headless browser scrapping

headless

Run headless browser

import { exitAll, GologinApi } from '../src/gologin-api.js';

const token = process.env.GOLOGIN_API_TOKEN; // get token https://app.gologin.com/personalArea/TokenApi
const gologin = GologinApi({ token, debug: true });

async function main() {
  const { browser } = await gologin.launch({ proxy: { countryCode: 'DE' } });
  const page = await browser.newPage();
  await page.goto('https://iphey.com/', { waitUntil: 'networkidle2' });
  const status = await page.$eval('.trustworthy-status:not(.hide)', (elt) =>
    elt?.innerText?.trim(),
  );

  return status; // Expecting 'Trustworthy'
}

main().catch(console.error).then(console.info).finally(exitAll);

Clone and run headless scraping browser code sample

Start with pre-build and tested code example:

github.com

Run scrapping example

git clone [email protected]:gologinapp/gologin.git
cd gologin
npm install

GL_API_TOKEN=[YOUR_GOLOGIN_API_TOKEN] node examples/example-provided-proxy.js
