Usage

Camoufox is fully compatible with your existing Playwright code. You only have to change your browser initialization:

Sync API

from camoufox.sync_api import Camoufox

with Camoufox(headless=False) as browser:
    page = browser.new_page()
    page.goto("https://example.com/")

Async API

from camoufox.async_api import AsyncCamoufox

async with AsyncCamoufox(headless=False) as browser:
    page = await browser.new_page()
    await page.goto("https://example.com")

Parameters

Launches a new browser instance for Camoufox.
Accepts all Playwright Firefox launch options, along with the following:

Parameters:
    playwright (Playwright):
        The playwright instance to use.
    config (Optional[Dict[str, Any]]):
        The configuration to use.
    addons (Optional[List[str]]):
        The addons to use.
    fingerprint (Optional[Fingerprint]):
        The fingerprint to use.
    exclude_addons (Optional[List[DefaultAddons]]):
        The default addons to exclude, passed as a list of camoufox.DefaultAddons enums.
    screen (Optional[browserforge.fingerprints.Screen]):
        The screen constraints to use.
    os (Optional[ListOrString]):
        The operating system to use for the fingerprint. Either a string or a list of strings.
    user_agent (Optional[ListOrString]):
        The user agent to use for the fingerprint. Either a string or a list of strings.
    fonts (Optional[List[str]]):
        The fonts to load into Camoufox, in addition to the default fonts.
    args (Optional[List[str]]):
        The arguments to pass to the browser.

Config

Camoufox config data can be passed as a dictionary to the config parameter:

from camoufox import Camoufox

with Camoufox(
    config={
        'webrtc:ipv4': '123.45.67.89',
        'webrtc:ipv6': 'e791:d37a:88f6:48d1:2cad:2667:4582:1d6d',
    }
) as browser:
    page = browser.new_page()
    page.goto("https://www.browserscan.net/webrtc")

---

BrowserForge Integration

Camoufox is fully compatible with BrowserForge.

By default, Camoufox will use a random fingerprint. You can also inject your own Firefox Browserforge fingerprint into Camoufox with the following example:

from camoufox.sync_api import Camoufox
from browserforge.fingerprints import FingerprintGenerator

fg = FingerprintGenerator(browser='firefox')

# Launch Camoufox with a random Firefox fingerprint
with Camoufox(fingerprint=fg.generate()) as browser:
    page = browser.new_page()
    page.goto("https://example.com/")

---

Note: As of now, some properties from BrowserForge fingerprints will not be passed to Camoufox. This is due to the outdated fingerprint dataset from Apify's fingerprint-suite (see here). Properties will be re-enabled as soon as an updated dataset is available.
