❓ About Me

I'm a Full Stack Software Engineer who loves to both break and build the web. Ever since I started programming I've had a particular interest in web scraping, automation, bots and security for which I've grown an expertise. Some may recognize me from my contributions in a time where sneaker bots were still cool (see projects below). The other side of me loves to develop web applications, always contemplating the most optimal solution.

Besides my main occupation, I'm interested in other fields such as (but not limited to) cross-platform mobile app development, reverse engineering, GNU/Linux, Containers, DevOps and cloud.

If you'd like to hire me or if you're looking for a partner for your next project, check out my socials and shoot me a DM.

I'm also active on GitLab.

Concurrency issues when using websockets + proxies

For some reason connections start to fail when using a (rotating) proxy over websockets. Mostly weird EOF errors.

There's some progress being made on this issue in this branch, including a mechanism to reconnect on failure, though it's far from perfect:

2022/05/15 17:44:37 main 1: server is starting
2022/05/15 17:44:39 main 0: server is starting
2022/05/15 17:44:41 main 2: server is starting
2022/05/15 17:44:42 reader: server closed the connection unexpectedly [websocket: close 1006 (abnormal closure): unexpected EOF], reconnecting...
2022/05/15 17:44:44 reader: server closed the connection unexpectedly [websocket: close 1006 (abnormal closure): unexpected EOF], reconnecting...
2022/05/15 17:44:46 reader: server closed the connection unexpectedly [websocket: close 1006 (abnormal closure): unexpected EOF], reconnecting...
2022/05/15 17:44:49 reader: server closed the connection unexpectedly [websocket: close 1006 (abnormal closure): unexpected EOF], reconnecting...
2022/05/15 17:44:51 reader: server closed the connection unexpectedly [websocket: close 1006 (abnormal closure): unexpected EOF], reconnecting...
2022/05/15 17:44:53 reader: server closed the connection unexpectedly [websocket: close 1006 (abnormal closure): unexpected EOF], reconnecting...

The issue is likely any of the following:

• deadlock in a goroutine somewhere (although go's race detector can't find anything in particular)
• the underlying connection getting abruptly closed due to some bug/issue in gorilla websockets, gotcha, fhttp, utls or even the Go language itself (yes, there's lots of possible points of failure!).
• the remote server actually refusing the connection due to some detection mechanism

I've already wasted a ton of time working on this issue and unfortunately it's not worth my time anymore at this point. Up for grabs if anyone wants to work on this.

Bad request when confirming server

Update dependencies

Both UTLS and gorilla websocket dependencies can be updated to their latest (non-forked) versions.

[question] No examples of using the CLI tool

There are example illustrating the programmatic approach, but for CLI, there are no clear instruction. When I tried to run CLI, it displayed me a help message with bunch of options I can provide to it for example proxy, server and session, etc. But I don't know how to use them or what they are. I mean am I supposed to enter the server address, I don't know what proxy and session are etc. I would be great if provided me a detailed explanation with some examples.

Goroutine tweaks

Planned changes regarding WebsocketConnection:

• SendHeartBeats is kinda broken rn, it can't be interrupted properly.
• Remove InterruptSignal. This is something that should be implemented by the user if he wants that functionality.
• The sender routine can be removed / simplified.
• close() should send the close msg to the server and then close the actual conn.

compilation error: unknown field ProxyTLSConnection in struct literal of type websocket.Dialer

While using aternos-api, I am encountering this compilation error:
