Feature request: Automatic captcha-solving #87

Open Malemo opened 2 years ago

Malemo commented 2 years ago

The main benefit for the bot is that it can work independently. When it fails to confirm capchas, the whole benefit of the bot gets left behind....

I've rephrased this as a feature request and would be happy to accept a PR if someone can integrate a captcha-solver. For now the focus is on #77 (because it's easier) and #59 (because it's blocking).

For the puzzle captchas, this might give some inspiration to someone willing to contribute.

Hi, i wanted to contribute to the project by adding a service like imagetyperz for the captcha. I had been using it with Flathunters (web scraper for immoscout and others that sends the appartments to telegram) and there it worked untill today. Unfortunately the developers of immoscout have added other anti-bot measures. See #https://github.com/flathunters/flathunter/issues/210. I think for now it will be game over for automatic solving of the captcha. I'll keep checking on the flathunters issue and if they manage to find a way to trick immoscout's bot detection again i'll give implementing imagetyperz another go.

Fredy is another tool like flathunters and uses an other external service (ScrapingAnt) to bypass the captcha and bot detection and that is still working. Unfortunately i dont think it will work in this usecase where it will automatically send a response as the service is mostly for website scraping.

Has anybody (e.g. @spggooss) experienced the no-captcha block yet, as screenshot in https://github.com/flathunters/flathunter/issues/210#issuecomment-1232987747 (top)?

Would be useful if the bot would at least manage to click the "I'm not a robot" captcha when I've solved the puzzle for it creating a valid captcha-token.
