Vagrant Proxy Server

In Telegram on PC, proxies can be set up through the application settings. You need to open the "Advanced settings" item, then - select "Connection type". By default, the Windows system proxy is used, but you can specify it manually or disable it altogether.

In Selenium with Python, you can add cookies to your browser session using the add_cookie method of the WebDriver's options or add_cookie method of the WebDriver instance. If you have cookies saved in a file, you can read the file and then add the cookies to your Selenium session. Here's an example:

from selenium import webdriver
import pickle

# Create a new instance of the browser (e.g., Chrome)
driver = webdriver.Chrome()

# Read cookies from a file (replace 'cookies.pkl' with your actual file name)
with open('cookies.pkl', 'rb') as cookies_file:
    cookies = pickle.load(cookies_file)

# Add each cookie to the browser session
for cookie in cookies:
    driver.add_cookie(cookie)

# Now the browser should have the added cookies

# Example: Navigate to a website after setting cookies
driver.get('https://example.com')

# Continue with your script...

# Close the browser when done
driver.quit()

In this example:

1. The Selenium WebDriver (Chrome in this case) is created.
2. Cookies are read from a file using the pickle module. Make sure your cookies file is in the correct format (a list of dictionaries).
3. Each cookie is added to the browser session using the add_cookie method.
4. The script navigates to a website (https://example.com) after setting the cookies. Adjust this part according to your specific use case.
5. The browser is closed using driver.quit() when the script is done.

Make sure to replace 'cookies.pkl' with the actual path to your cookies file.

Note: The format of the cookies file is crucial. It should be a list of dictionaries, and each dictionary should contain at least the keys 'name', 'value', 'domain', and 'path'. If the cookies were obtained using get_cookies() in a previous Selenium session, you can directly save the result using pickle.dump(cookies, file).

Here's a simple example of how to save cookies:

from selenium import webdriver
import pickle

driver = webdriver.Chrome()
driver.get('https://example.com')

# Get cookies
cookies = driver.get_cookies()

# Save cookies to a file
with open('cookies.pkl', 'wb') as cookies_file:
    pickle.dump(cookies, cookies_file)

driver.quit()

Then, you can use the first script to load and set these cookies in a new Selenium session.

To run Firefox with Selenium and connected extensions, you'll need to use the FirefoxDriverService and FirefoxOptions. You can also set the path to the Firefox executable and the path to the extensions' .xpi files using the FirefoxBinary and FirefoxProfile classes. Here's an example of how to do this:

Install the required NuGet packages:

Install-Package OpenQA.Selenium.Firefox.WebDriver -Version 3.141.0
Install-Package OpenQA.Selenium.Support.UI -Version 3.141.0

Create a method to add extensions to the Firefox profile:

using OpenQA.Selenium;
using OpenQA.Selenium.Firefox;
using System.IO;
using System.Linq;

public static IWebDriver CreateFirefoxDriverWithExtensions(string[] extensionPaths)
{
    var firefoxOptions = new FirefoxOptions();
    var firefoxBinary = new FirefoxBinary(Path.GetDirectoryName(FirefoxDriverService.DefaultServicePath));
    var firefoxProfile = new FirefoxProfile();

    // Add extensions to the Firefox profile
    foreach (var extensionPath in extensionPaths)
    {
        var extensionFile = new FileInfo(extensionPath);
        if (extensionFile.Exists)
        {
            firefoxProfile.AddExtension(extensionPath);
        }
    }

    firefoxOptions.BinaryLocation = firefoxBinary.Path;
    firefoxOptions.Profile = firefoxProfile;

    // Start the FirefoxDriverService with the specified Firefox binary
    var driverService = FirefoxDriverService.CreateDefaultService(firefoxBinary.Path, FirefoxDriverService.DefaultPort);
    driverService.EnableVerboseLogging = true;

    // Create the FirefoxDriver with the specified options
    var driver = new FirefoxDriver(driverService, firefoxOptions);

    return driver;
}

Use the CreateFirefoxDriverWithExtensions method in your test code:

using OpenQA.Selenium;
using System;

namespace SeleniumFirefoxExtensionsExample
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            // Paths to the extensions' .xpi files
            string[] extensionPaths = new[]
            {
                @"path\to\extension1.xpi",
                @"path\to\extension2.xpi"
            };

            // Create the FirefoxDriver with connected extensions
            using (var driver = CreateFirefoxDriverWithExtensions(extensionPaths))
            {
                // Set up the WebDriver
                driver.Manage().Window.Maximize();

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

                // Perform any additional actions as needed

                // Close the browser
                driver.Quit();
            }
        }
    }
}

In this example, we first create a method called CreateFirefoxDriverWithExtensions that takes an array of extension paths as input. Inside the method, we set up the FirefoxOptions, FirefoxBinary, and FirefoxProfile to include the specified extensions. Then, we start the FirefoxDriverService with the specified Firefox binary and create the FirefoxDriver with the specified options.

In the test code, we call the CreateFirefoxDriverWithExtensions method with the paths to the extensions' .xpi files and use the returned IWebDriver instance to interact with the browser.

Remember to replace "path\to\extension1.xpi" and "path\to\extension2.xpi" with the actual paths to the extensions' .xpi files you want to connect.

Open the control panel of your computer, find and select the item "Network connection", and then click "Show network connections", "Local network connections" and "Properties". If there is a tick next to "Obtain an IP address automatically", then no dedicated proxy has been used. If you see numbers there, it will be your address.

To connect a proxy for Instagram, you need to use third-party services. With their help, you can assign a separate proxy for each account, through which the profile will work. An example of a service is Instaplus. You can also use built-in proxies on the site.
