Budibase Proxy

In the "System Settings" section, open the "Network" tab, and then, when you highlight the active connection, click "Advanced". Here, in the "Proxies" tab, tick only the HTTP proxy if you do not intend to use other types of proxies temporarily. Enter the address of your proxy server and its port in the designated fields and click "OK".

It is recommended to use private IPv6 proxies with dedicated IP in order to work with Instagram correctly, and most importantly - securely. With such connection interception of traffic is practically impossible, directly Instagram also will not ban the connection.

To implement a constant scraping process, you can use a combination of a loop and a delay to periodically scrape data from a website. This process is often referred to as "web scraping with intervals" or "periodic scraping." Here's an example using Node.js and the axios library for making HTTP requests

Install Dependencies

Install the required npm packages:

npm install axios

Write the Scraping Script

Create a Node.js script (e.g., constant_scraping.js) with the following code:

const axios = require('axios');

async function scrapeData() {
    try {
        // Replace with your scraping logic
        const response = await axios.get('https://example.com'); // Replace with the URL you want to scrape
        console.log('Scraped data:', response.data);

        // Add additional scraping logic as needed
        // ...

    } catch (error) {
        console.error('Error during scraping:', error.message);
    }
}

// Function to perform constant scraping with a specified interval
async function constantScraping(interval) {
    while (true) {
        await scrapeData();
        await sleep(interval); // Sleep for the specified interval before the next scrape
    }
}

// Function to introduce a delay using setTimeout
function sleep(ms) {
    return new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(resolve, ms));
}

// Set the interval (in milliseconds) for constant scraping
const scrapingInterval = 60000; // 60 seconds

// Start the constant scraping process
constantScraping(scrapingInterval);

Replace 'https://example.com' with the URL you want to scrape.

Adjust the scraping logic within the scrapeData function to meet your specific requirements.

Run the Script:

Run the script using Node.js:

node constant_scraping.js

This script defines a constantScraping function that continuously calls the scrapeData function at a specified interval using a loop and the sleep function. Adjust the interval (scrapingInterval) based on your scraping needs.

If you're trying to integrate Selenium into a Java project, you'll need to use the WebDriver for Java API. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to set up Selenium with a Java project

Add Selenium dependencies to your project:

If you're using Maven, add the following dependencies to your pom.xml file:

    
        org.seleniumhq.selenium
        selenium-java
        3.141.59
    
    
        org.seleniumhq.selenium
        selenium-chrome-driver
        3.141.59
    

If you're using Gradle, add the following dependencies to your build.gradle file:

dependencies {
    implementation 'org.seleniumhq.selenium:selenium-java:3.141.59'
    implementation 'org.seleniumhq.selenium:selenium-chrome-driver:3.141.59'
}

Create a Java class for your Selenium test:

Create a new Java class for your test, for example, DropdownExample.java.

Write the test code:

Here's a simple example of how to write a test that selects an option from a drop-down menu:

import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;

public class DropdownExample {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        // Set the path to the ChromeDriver executable
        System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "/path/to/chromedriver");

        // Create a new instance of the ChromeDriver
        WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();

        // Navigate to the webpage containing the drop-down menu
        driver.get("http://example.com");

        // Locate the drop-down menu element using its ID
        WebElement dropDown = driver.findElement(By.id("dropdown-menu-id"));

        // Create a Select object to interact with the drop-down menu
        Select select = new Select(dropDown);

        // Select an option from the drop-down menu by its value attribute
        select.selectByValue("option-value");

        // Close the WebDriver instance
        driver.quit();
    }
}

Run the test:

You can run your test using your preferred Java IDE or by using the command line. If you're using Maven, you can run your test with the following command:

mvn test

If you're using Gradle, you can run your test with the following command:

gradle test

This should help you integrate Selenium with your Java project and execute a test that selects an option from a drop-down menu. Make sure to replace "/path/to/chromedriver" with the actual path to your ChromeDriver executable and "http://example.com" with the URL of the webpage containing the drop-down menu.

To simulate manual text input in Selenium WebDriver, you can use the send_keys method to send a sequence of keys to an input field. Here's an example of how to do this in Python:

Install the required package:

pip install selenium

Create a method to simulate manual text input:

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC

def simulate_manual_text_input(driver, locator, text_to_send):
    element = WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(EC.visibility_of_element_located(locator))
    element.clear()
    element.send_keys(text_to_send)

Use the simulate_manual_text_input method in your test code:

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC

# Set up the WebDriver
driver = webdriver.Chrome()
driver.maximize_window()

# Navigate to the target web page
driver.get("https://www.example.com")

# Locate the input field
locator = (By.ID, "username")

# Simulate manual text input
simulate_manual_text_input(driver, locator, "your_username")

# Perform any additional actions as needed

# Close the browser
driver.quit()

In this example, we first create a method called simulate_manual_text_input that takes a driver instance, a locator tuple containing the locator strategy and locator value, and a text_to_send string containing the text to send to the input field. Inside the method, we use the WebDriverWait class to wait for the element to become visible and then clear the input field and send the text using the send_keys method.

In the test code, we set up the WebDriver, navigate to the target web page, and locate the input field using the locator variable. We then call the simulate_manual_text_input method with the driver, locator, and "your_username" as input. After simulating the manual text input, you can perform any additional actions as needed.

Remember to replace "https://www.example.com", "username", and "your_username" with the actual URL, input field ID or name, and the text you want to type into the input field.
