# Remote Server

Warning

Warning! This feature is experimental. It uses a hacky workaround to gain access to undocumented Playwright methods.

Camoufox can be ran as a remote websocket server. It can be accessed from other devices, and languages other than Python supporting the Playwright API.

# Launching

To launch a remote server, run the following CLI command:

python -m camoufox server

Or, configure the server with a launch script:

from camoufox.server import launch_server

launch_server(
    headless=True,
    geoip=True,
    proxy={
        'server': 'http://example.com:8080',
        'username': 'username',
        'password': 'password'
    }
)

See parameters list

../usage/#parameters-list

# Connecting

To connect to the remote server, use Playwright's connect method:

from playwright.sync_api import sync_playwright

with sync_playwright() as p:
    # Example endpoint
    browser = p.firefox.connect('ws://localhost:34091/8c7c6cdea3368d937ef7db2277d6647b')
    page = browser.new_page()
    ...

Note

Because servers only use one browser instance, fingerprints will not rotate between sessions. If you plan on using Camoufox at scale, consider rotating the server between sessions.
