TinEye-Scraper

Automating reverse image searches on the TinEye website.

Prerequisites

To run the script, ensure you have the following installed:

• Python: Version 3.6 or higher.
• Google Chrome: Latest version recommended.
• Git: For cloning the repository.
• Proxies: A list of working proxies in the format IP:PORT:USER:PASS (optional for anonymity).

Installation

1. Clone the Repository:

   git clone https://github.com/Student-FastDev/Tineye-Scraper
   cd Tineye-Scraper

2. Install Required Packages:

   Install the necessary Python packages using pip:

   pip install -r requirements.txt

Usage

1. Run the Python Script:

   Execute the script from the command line, specifying the image file you wish to search:

   python tineyes.py [image_file_name]

2. Configure Settings:

   If you wish to use proxies for enhanced anonymity, edit or create a proxy.txt file to include your proxies in the following format:

   IP:PORT:USER:PASS
   

   The script randomly selects a proxy from this file for each session, ensuring varied IP addresses for different scraping tasks.

Notes

• Proxy Configuration: Utilize proxies to mask IP addresses and prevent IP bans. Configure proxies by adding them to a proxy.txt file in the format IP:PORT:USER:PASS, one per line. The script randomly selects a proxy for each session.
• Compliance & Security: Handle your proxy information securely to prevent unauthorized access. Ensure that your usage of the bot complies with TinEye's Terms of Service to avoid potential legal issues.
