Use proxy to send request

[fordca]

Hi, thanks for this repo to use 2captcha conveniently.

I wonder if there is a way to config a proxy to use solver, because my code run behind a work NAT and can't connect to 2captcha.com directly I have been looked for the code and there is no proxy config for init solver.

Is there a way to solve my problem that I didn't found OR there is no proxy's config for now?

@fordca at the moment, the proxy can be used along with the rest of the captcha parameters, as described here.

Example:

solver.recaptcha({
  pageurl: 'https://2captcha.com/demo/recaptcha-v2',
  googlekey: '6LfD3PIbAAAAAJs_eEHvoOl75_83eXSqpPSRFJ_u',
  proxy: "login:password@1.2.3.4:8888", // The (Username : Password @ Address : Port) of our chosen proxy
  proxytype: "http" // The 'Type' of proxy, http, https, socks4, socks5.
})
.then((res) => {
  console.log(res)
})
.catch((err) => {
  console.error(err.message)
})

2captcha-ts uses node-fetch that doesn't support proxies.

I think you can setup a proxy-agent in your project and it should be used by node-fetch for the API calls. Never tried by myself but it worth to try for your case.

Hello Node fetch supports proxies (tested and it works) Although, yes, you need an external agent

For example:

import { SocksProxyAgent } from 'socks-proxy-agent';

const agent = new SocksProxyAgent('socks5h://127.0.0.1:9050');

await fetch('https://google.com', {
        agent,
        method: 'POST',
        body: {}
        headers,
      })
 }

I tested and it works, don't know about DNS leaks tho, but socks5h should have it resolving DNS in socks if the socks-proxy-agent works as supposed. I suggest using wireshark to check it.
