IPTorrents Authentication Doesn't Work about torrent-search-api HOT 8 OPEN

I can't test since I don't have an account anymore.
Can you try replacing /take_login.php with /do-login.php in iptorrents.json please ?

It looks like its the same issue -- whatever service they use (something like cloudfare) makes you wait 5 seconds before redirecting you to prevent bots it seems. Not sure if there is going to be an easy way around that. You may be able to repro, or at least see what I'm seeing by navigating to iptorrents in incognito or on a VPN without logging in.

It's a cloudfare protection and it's a pain in the ass.. We have the same problem on yggtorrent provider.
There's a workaround that uses puppeteer, it's not perfect (heavy and will not work on some dockerized env), but it does the job until we have a better solution.
Check this issue if you're interested.

Sorry for the off-topic.
@JimmyLaurent which dockerized environment are you referring to? Is it when docker requires to run it as a non-root user?

from torrent-search-api.

It's been a while now and It may have changed but I remember having some troubles running chrome inside Heroku or Now services (with free plans).

BTW, good job with the puppeteer solution.

@JimmyLaurent I was right, Heroku doesn't allow running Docker as root so that's why it doesn't work and for vercel it's planned: unixfox/pupflare#3

@unixfox Still off topic: you might be interested by this buildpack, I made some tests and ran puppeteer flawlessly on heroku.

@sgianelli I added a new experimental cloudflare bypass. It's like pupflare, but only use puppetteer to grab cookies. So if it doesn't bother you to use chromium headless, you might be interested.
To use it, take the latest version of" torrent-search-api" and also add the "cloudflare-scraper" package to you project dependencies.
If you do so, can you tell me if it solve your issue ?
Thanks.

Hiya! I'm running into the same issue as @sgianelli with IPtorrents
"cloudscraper": "^4.6.0",
"torrent-search-api": "^2.1.3",
with the above versions for the two packages and the default iptorrents.json. Still failing to get through the authentication. Any other tips or suggestions?
