Add more documentation on the following topics:
* Running `curl-impersonate` from the command line, including changing
the HTTP headers when needed.
* Using `libcurl-impersonate` in JS and PHP scripts.
When impersonating with libcurl, the built-in user agent used for
impersonation was overriding and useragent the user had set via
CURLOPT_USERAGENT. The fix takes care to specifically handle user agent
set with CURLOPT_USERAGENT and use it instead of the built-in one when
it is supplied.
Minimize the size of the resulting Docker image size by using
multi-stage build and copying the resulting binaries into a minimal
Debian system. This was done with the Alpine Docker images up until now
but not with the Debian images.
Let the user disable the built-in list of HTTP headers when using
libcurl-impersonate, either directly or when replacing it at runtime
with LD_PRELOAD. This is intended to give the user more precise control
over the content and order of the HTTP headers.
To support this, the curl_easy_impersonate() now has an added argument
that can be set to 0, in which case the built-in list of HTTP headers
used by libcurl-impersonate will not be automatically sent. Instead,
the user is expected to supply all the headers by themselves using the
standard CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER libcurl option.
When using LD_PRELOAD to inject libcurl-impersonate, one can disable
the built-in headers by setting the CURL_IMPERSONATE_HEADERS
environment variable to "no".
Cherry pick commit b9b6148c45a00d675d5bb261bf4cbb45468ad807 from
upstream curl to fix a bug in curl 7.84.0 which causes failures with the
'TE: Trailers' header.
Add support for cross-compiling curl-impersonate.
Cross compiling can now be done using the '--host' flag to the configure
script. This will make sure that all sub-components are cross-compiled.
In addition, compiling for a different system requires explicitly
specifying multiple paths used by curl (e.g. for certificates). These
options were added to the configure script as well.
The build and test CI workflow will now attempt to cross-compile
curl-impersonate to ARM64 (aarch64), and upload this binary to the
GitHub release page.
Add the 'configure' script generated by autoconf and its dependencies to
the repository to save the users from having to run 'autoconf' manually.
For easier programmatic access from scripts, etc., store the list of
supported browsers in a browsers.json file. For each browser we store
its details (name, version), which curl-impersonate binary is needed
(chrome vs. firefox) and the name of the wrapper script.
Upload a tar file with libcurl-impersonate compiled for Ubuntu and macOS
automatically for each GitHub release. Previously only a statically
compiled version of the binary curl-impersonate was uploaded.
