Overview

The client package uses the functional options pattern to configure client behavior. All configuration is applied during client creation via the New() function.

​
Option Type

type Option func(*Client)
Option is a function that configures a Client during initialization.

​
Browser Configuration

​
WithBrowser

Sets the browser identity for TLS and HTTP/2 fingerprinting. 
func WithBrowser(b Browser) Option
​
b
Browser
Browser identity (BrowserChrome, BrowserEdge, BrowserBrave, BrowserSafari, or BrowserFirefox)
Example: 
c, err := client.New(
    client.WithBrowser(client.BrowserSafari),
)
Source: /home/daytona/workspace/source/pkg/client/option.go:18

​
WithBrowserVersion

Sets the browser version for TLS fingerprinting. 
func WithBrowserVersion(v string) Option
​
v
string
Browser version in dotted notation (e.g., “131.0.0.0”, “17.0”)
Default: "131.0.0.0" Example: 
c, err := client.New(
    client.WithBrowser(client.BrowserChrome),
    client.WithBrowserVersion("120.0.0.0"),
)
Source: /home/daytona/workspace/source/pkg/client/option.go:23

​
WithPlatform

Sets the OS platform for TLS and HTTP/2 fingerprinting. 
func WithPlatform(p Platform) Option
​
p
Platform
OS platform (PlatformWindows, PlatformMac, PlatformLinux, PlatformIOS, or PlatformIPadOS)
Default: PlatformWindows Example: 
c, err := client.New(
    client.WithBrowser(client.BrowserSafari),
    client.WithPlatform(client.PlatformMac),
)
Source: /home/daytona/workspace/source/pkg/client/option.go:28

​
Advanced Fingerprinting

​
WithClientHelloID

Overrides the TLS ClientHelloID from the browser profile. 
func WithClientHelloID(id utls.ClientHelloID) Option
​
id
utls.ClientHelloID
Custom TLS ClientHello fingerprint from the utls package
This option allows you to use a custom TLS fingerprint instead of the one provided by the browser profile. Useful for advanced fingerprinting scenarios. Example: 
import utls "github.com/refraction-networking/utls"

c, err := client.New(
    client.WithClientHelloID(utls.HelloFirefox_102),
)
Source: /home/daytona/workspace/source/pkg/client/option.go:33

​
WithH2Profile

Overrides the HTTP/2 profile from the browser profile. 
func WithH2Profile(p H2Profile) Option
​
p
H2Profile
Custom HTTP/2 profile with SETTINGS, window size, priority, and pseudo-header order
Allows complete control over HTTP/2 fingerprinting including SETTINGS frame, connection window, priority parameters, and pseudo-header ordering. Example: 
import "golang.org/x/net/http2"

customProfile := client.H2Profile{
    Settings: []http2.Setting{
        {ID: http2.SettingHeaderTableSize, Val: 65536},
        {ID: http2.SettingEnablePush, Val: 0},
    },
    ConnectionWindow: 15663105,
    Priority: http2.PriorityParam{
        Weight: 255,
    },
    PseudoOrder: []string{":method", ":authority", ":scheme", ":path"},
}

c, err := client.New(
    client.WithH2Profile(customProfile),
)
Source: /home/daytona/workspace/source/pkg/client/option.go:38

​
Headers

​
WithDefaultHeaderOverrides

Overrides browser profile default headers. 
func WithDefaultHeaderOverrides(h http.Header) Option
​
h
http.Header
Headers to override in the default profile. Empty values remove headers.
Allows customization of default headers like User-Agent, sec-ch-ua, and other browser-specific headers. The header map is cloned internally. Example: 
headers := http.Header{}
headers.Set("user-agent", "CustomBot/1.0")
headers.Set("sec-ch-ua", "") // Remove this header

c, err := client.New(
    client.WithDefaultHeaderOverrides(headers),
)
Source: /home/daytona/workspace/source/pkg/client/option.go:48

​
Network Configuration

​
WithProxy

Sets the proxy configuration for the client. 
func WithProxy(p *Proxy) Option
​
p
*Proxy
Proxy configuration with scheme, host, port, and optional credentials
Example: 
proxy, err := client.ParseProxy("proxy.example.com:8080:user:pass", client.ProxySchemeHTTP)
if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
}

c, err := client.New(
    client.WithProxy(proxy),
)
Source: /home/daytona/workspace/source/pkg/client/option.go:13

​
WithDisableKeepAlives

Controls whether HTTP keep-alives are disabled. 
func WithDisableKeepAlives(d bool) Option
​
d
bool
true to disable keep-alives, false to enable
Default: true (keep-alives disabled) When disabled, each request uses a new TCP connection. When enabled, connections are reused for multiple requests. Example: 
// Enable keep-alives for better performance
c, err := client.New(
    client.WithDisableKeepAlives(false),
)
Source: /home/daytona/workspace/source/pkg/client/option.go:53

​
TLS Configuration

​
WithDisableSessionTickets

Controls whether TLS session tickets are disabled. 
func WithDisableSessionTickets(d bool) Option
​
d
bool
true to disable session tickets, false to enable
Default: true (session tickets disabled) TLS session tickets allow resuming TLS sessions without a full handshake. Disabling them can improve privacy. Example: 
// Enable session tickets for performance
c, err := client.New(
    client.WithDisableSessionTickets(false),
)
Source: /home/daytona/workspace/source/pkg/client/option.go:58

​
WithInsecureSkipVerify

Controls whether TLS certificate verification is skipped. 
func WithInsecureSkipVerify(d bool) Option
​
d
bool
true to skip verification, false to verify certificates
Default: true (verification skipped) Warning: Skipping verification makes connections vulnerable to man-in-the-middle attacks. Only use for testing or when connecting to servers with self-signed certificates. Example: 
// Enable certificate verification for production
c, err := client.New(
    client.WithInsecureSkipVerify(false),
)
Source: /home/daytona/workspace/source/pkg/client/option.go:63

​
Response Handling

​
WithCookieExtractor

Replaces the default Set-Cookie extraction function. 
func WithCookieExtractor(fn CookieExtractor) Option
​
fn
CookieExtractor
Custom function to extract cookies from HTTP responses
Type: 
type CookieExtractor func(resp *http.Response) ([]*http.Cookie, error)
The default extractor (DefaultCookieExtractor) uses relaxed parsing that allows double-quote characters in cookie values. Example: 
customExtractor := func(resp *http.Response) ([]*http.Cookie, error) {
    // Custom cookie extraction logic
    var cookies []*http.Cookie
    for _, raw := range resp.Header.Values("Set-Cookie") {
        cookie, err := client.ParseSetCookie(raw)
        if err != nil {
            continue // Skip invalid cookies
        }
        cookies = append(cookies, cookie)
    }
    return cookies, nil
}

c, err := client.New(
    client.WithCookieExtractor(customExtractor),
)
Source: /home/daytona/workspace/source/pkg/client/option.go:43

​
WithDisableDecompression

Controls whether automatic response decompression is disabled. 
func WithDisableDecompression(d bool) Option
​
d
bool
true to disable automatic decompression, false to enable
Default: false (decompression enabled) When enabled, the client automatically decompresses responses with Content-Encoding headers (gzip, deflate, br, zstd). Example: 
// Disable decompression to handle it manually
c, err := client.New(
    client.WithDisableDecompression(true),
)
Source: /home/daytona/workspace/source/pkg/client/option.go:68

​
Default Configuration

When creating a client with client.New() and no options, the following defaults are applied: 
&Client{
    browser:               BrowserChrome,
    browserVersion:        "131.0.0.0",
    platform:              PlatformWindows,
    extractCookies:        DefaultCookieExtractor,
    disableKeepAlives:     true,
    disableSessionTickets: true,
    insecureSkipVerify:    true,
    disableDecompression:  false,
}
Source: /home/daytona/workspace/source/pkg/client/client.go:46

​
Configuration Examples

​
Production-Ready Client

c, err := client.New(
    client.WithBrowser(client.BrowserChrome),
    client.WithPlatform(client.PlatformLinux),
    client.WithInsecureSkipVerify(false),      // Verify certificates
    client.WithDisableKeepAlives(false),       // Reuse connections
    client.WithDisableSessionTickets(false),   // Enable session resumption
)

​
Safari Mobile Client

c, err := client.New(
    client.WithBrowser(client.BrowserSafari),
    client.WithPlatform(client.PlatformIOS),
    client.WithBrowserVersion("17.1"),
)

​
Proxy with Custom Headers

proxy, _ := client.ParseProxy("socks5.example.com:1080", client.ProxySchemeSOCKS5)

headers := http.Header{}
headers.Set("accept-language", "en-US,en;q=0.9")

c, err := client.New(
    client.WithProxy(proxy),
    client.WithDefaultHeaderOverrides(headers),
)

​
Maximum Privacy Configuration

c, err := client.New(
    client.WithBrowser(client.BrowserFirefox),
    client.WithDisableKeepAlives(true),        // No connection reuse
    client.WithDisableSessionTickets(true),    // No session resumption
    client.WithInsecureSkipVerify(false),      // Verify all certificates
)
