I maintain this and other Home Assistant add-ons in my free time: keeping up with upstream changes, HA changes, and testing on real hardware takes a lot of time (and some money). I use around 5-10 of my >110 addons so regularly I install test machines (and purchase some test services such as vpn) that I don't use myself to troubleshoot and improve the addons

If this add-on saves you time or makes your setup easier, I would be very grateful for your support!

About

FlareSolverr is a proxy server to bypass Cloudflare protection. It starts a proxy server that waits for user requests in an idle state using few resources. When a request arrives, it uses Puppeteer with the stealth plugin to create a headless browser (Firefox) that solves Cloudflare challenges.

Key features:

Bypasses Cloudflare protection automatically
Headless browser automation with Firefox
RESTful API for integration with other tools
Cookie extraction for subsequent requests
Support for various Cloudflare challenge types

Note: Web browsers consume significant memory. Avoid making many concurrent requests on systems with limited RAM.
