## What is this?
This Python library wraps around Playwright's API to help automatically generate & inject unique device characteristics (OS, CPU info, navigator, fonts, headers, screen dimensions, viewport size, WebGL, addons, etc.) into Camoufox.
It uses [BrowserForge](https://github.com/daijro/browserforge) under the hood to generate fingerprints that mimic the statistical distribution of device characteristics in real-world traffic.
In addition, it will also calculate your target geolocation, timezone, and locale to avoid proxy protection ([see demo](https://i.imgur.com/UhSHfaV.png)).

## Installation
First, install the `camoufox` package:
```bash
pip install -U camoufox[geoip]
```
The `geoip` parameter is optional, but heavily recommended if you are using proxies. It will download an extra dataset to determine the user's longitude, latitude, timezone, country, & locale.
Next, download the Camoufox browser:
**Windows**
```bash
camoufox fetch
```
**MacOS & Linux**
```bash
python3 -m camoufox fetch
```
To uninstall, run `camoufox remove`.
CLI options
```
Usage: python -m camoufox [OPTIONS] COMMAND [ARGS]...
Options:
--help Show this message and exit.
Commands:
fetch Fetch the latest version of Camoufox
path Display the path to the Camoufox executable
remove Remove all downloaded files
server Launch a Playwright server
test Open the Playwright inspector
version Display the current version
```
