curl-impersonate

v0.6.1 (2 Mar 2024) Feb 23 2022

Curl-impersonate is a special build of libcurl and cURL HTTP client that impersonates the four major browsers: - Google Chrome - Microsoft Edge - Safari - Firefox Curl-impersonate achieves this by patching TLS and HTTP fingerprints to be identical to that of one of these real browsers.

Unlike other HTTP clients curl-impersonate can bypass TSL and HTTP fingerprinting and detection techniques though it does not implement anything for Javascript fingerprint or bypass.

Example Use


curl-impersonate installs itself under curl_<browser-name-and-type> terminal commands like curl_chrome116:

shell $ curl_chrome116 https://www.wikipedia.org To use it in HTTP client libraries that use libcurl replace curl path with one of these. To use it in python directly see curl-cffi Python package
