Hashat Proxy

⚠️ Visit this support article if you are a website owner and you encountered an error while embedding an image from your site on Hashat.

This is the image proxy used by Hashat which is here to protect user privacy and stop tracking-features by the image host. The way it works is easy:
When an image is requested, the proxy will download the recource from the given request URL and simply send only the image back to the requester. Its just like what a proxy does, weird...
When using the proxy, the image host will only see the server's IP and useragent and not sensitive/trackable data from the requesting user.

To setup this proxy on your own server you'll need PHP>=7.4 running on your system. Please mind that you will have to change the following lines:

Developement mode

$developement_mode = true;
If developement mode is enabled, the proxy will answer requests from every domain. If disabled, only request from configured domains will get an response, every other domain will get the error code 4.

Useragent

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, [
    'User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/42.0.2311.135 Safari/537.36 Edge/12.246;'
]);

Set your own agent here. (This exaple is an Windows 10-based agent using the Edge browser).
⚠️ The use of the HashatBot agent (which is the default in the code) is strictly forbidden.

Allowed domains

if ($_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] !== 'hashat.app' AND $developement_mode === false) {
    header('Content-Type: image/webp');
    $image = imagecreatefromwebp('error-images/error-4.webp');
    imagewebp($image);
    imagedestroy($image);
    exit;
}

To only allow connections comming from a specific domain, just change the 'hashat.app', to e.g. 'example.com'. If you want to allow every request origin, just replace $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] !== 'hashat.app' with false
