### Basic Usage

```bash
# Visit a website 5 times
awv --url https://example.com --count 5

# Use Firefox in headless mode with auto-scroll
awv --url https://example.com --count 10 --browser firefox --headless --auto-scroll

# Use proxy server
awv --url https://example.com --count 5 --proxy 127.0.0.1:8080
```

### Interactive Mode

## Python API

Use Auto Website Visitor programmatically:

```python
from auto_website_visitor import AutoWebsiteVisitor, VisitorSettings

# Create settings
settings = VisitorSettings(
    url="https://example.com",
    visit_count=5,
    browser="chrome",
    headless=True,
    auto_scroll=True
)

# Run visitor
visitor = AutoWebsiteVisitor(settings)
success = visitor.run()

# Get statistics
stats = visitor.get_stats()
print(f"Success rate: {stats['success_rate']:.1f}%")
```

### Scheduled Execution

```python
from auto_website_visitor import AutoWebsiteVisitor, VisitorSettings, SchedulerManager
from auto_website_visitor.logger import VisitorLogger

settings = VisitorSettings(url="https://example.com", headless=True)
logger = VisitorLogger(settings)
scheduler = SchedulerManager(logger)

def scheduled_job():
    visitor = AutoWebsiteVisitor(settings)
    visitor.run()

# Schedule every 30 minutes
scheduler.schedule_job(scheduled_job, "interval", "30m")
scheduler.wait_for_completion()
```

## Logging

Auto Website Visitor provides comprehensive logging:

- **Console Output**: Real-time status updates
- **File Logging**: Detailed logs with rotation
- **Configurable Levels**: DEBUG, INFO, WARNING, ERROR
- **Structured Format**: Timestamps and categorized messages

Example log output:

```
2024-01-15 10:30:00 - auto_website_visitor - INFO - Starting Auto Website Visitor
2024-01-15 10:30:00 - auto_website_visitor - INFO - Target URL: https://example.com
2024-01-15 10:30:00 - auto_website_visitor - INFO - Visit count: 5
2024-01-15 10:30:01 - auto_website_visitor - INFO - Starting visit 1/5
2024-01-15 10:30:02 - auto_website_visitor - INFO - Visiting: https://example.com
2024-01-15 10:30:05 - auto_website_visitor - INFO - Website visit completed successfully
```

## Error Handling

The package includes robust error handling:

- **Retry Logic**: Automatic retries on failures
- **Timeout Management**: Configurable page load timeouts
- **Browser Recovery**: Automatic browser restart on crashes
- **Graceful Degradation**: Continues operation despite individual failures

## Security Considerations

- **Proxy Support**: Route traffic through proxy servers
- **User Agent Rotation**: Avoid detection with custom user agents
- **Rate Limiting**: Control visit frequency to avoid overwhelming servers
- **Headless Mode**: Run without visible browser windows

## Performance Tips

1. **Use Headless Mode**: Significantly faster execution
2. **Optimize Intervals**: Balance speed with server courtesy
3. **Configure Timeouts**: Avoid hanging on slow pages
4. **Monitor Resources**: Use appropriate retry settings
5. **Log Management**: Enable rotation for long-running tasks

## Troubleshooting

### Common Issues

1. **WebDriver Not Found**
   ```bash
   # The package automatically downloads drivers, but you can install manually:
   pip install webdriver-manager --upgrade
   ```

2. **Permission Denied**
   ```bash
   # On Linux/Mac, you might need to set executable permissions:
   chmod +x /path/to/chromedriver
   ```

3. **Proxy Authentication**
   ```bash
   # Use environment variables for credentials:
   export PROXY_USER="username"
   export PROXY_PASS="password"
   ```

4. **Memory Issues**
   - Enable headless mode
   - Reduce visit count
   - Increase intervals between visits

### Debug Mode

Enable debug logging for troubleshooting:

```bash
awv --url https://example.com --log-level DEBUG
```

## Updates

Check for and install updates:

```bash
# Check for updates
awv update

# Or use pip directly
pip install --upgrade auto-website-visitor
```
