Hard coded values in the library

Hey,

Thanks for your work on this library. I was wondering about these constants here

https://github.com/labteral/pygram/blob/master/pygram/pygram.py#L119

Can you tell me where did you get them? Are these constants common for everyone? If not, How can I get them for my own crawler?

I am trying to port your library to go and I am kind of stuck here.

Thanks,
Rohith

Hi @rohith2506! They are common for everyone. I got them by inspecting the API calls in the browser. However, they could change (but they don't). Each type of call has a different query hash. You can use the same. If you search the query hashes you will find more people using them (https://www.startpage.com/do/dsearch?query=c76146de99bb02f6415203be841dd25a&cat=web&pl=opensearch)
