Bypass uims captcha

[xpt1x]

New system Requirements:
Tesseract OCR installed on system

UIMS now protects its content from bots/scripts using a captcha, however its a very simple image captcha (my criticism to UIMS 😜 ) and hence can be bypassed by introducing tessaract OCR to solve it

Although at this point of time it doesn't feels like a good idea to include bypass mechanism in this scraper api, but can be considered for future (future maintainers maybe 👀 )

Fix for response:500 on sending request to main home page :

Actually they updated the page request arguments after they add the captcha, so we need to implement the new method:

OLD:

data = {
    "__VIEWSTATE": viewstate_tag["value"],  # type: ignore
    "txtLoginPassword": passwd,
    "btnLogin": "LOGIN",
}

# sending data to server 
response = requests.post(
    password_url, data=data, cookies=response.cookies, allow_redirects=False
)

NEW:

data = {
    "__VIEWSTATE": viewstate_tag["value"], # type: ignore
    "txtLoginPassword": passwd,
    "txtcaptcha": a, 
    "btnLogin": "LOGIN",
}

# // sending POST request to same page url for getting next page url

response = requests.post(
    password_url,
    cookies=response.cookies,
    headers=response.headers,
    data=data,
)

I am not getting what change you are trying to suggest here, can you please create a branch/fork of your own based on this branch, so it becomes more clear to me
