[GeminiPro] "User location is not supported for the API use" workaround

[iG8R]

Is there any way to implement workarounds for the "User location is not supported for the API use" issue in GeminiPro for those in geo-restricted countries, which are described here
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/77659552/google-generative-ai-api-error-user-location-is-not-supported-for-the-api-use ?

You need a proxy or a vpn in the country which are allowed by Google Gemini

Sure, I already use Netlify as a proxy, but it would be way more convenient if g4f had native support to workaround this issue.

The proxy support is the native way. ?

[iG8R]

:) I meant that if g4f could access the GeminiPro API through VertexAPI, that would be considered the native way.

I can't create a Vertex Account for me. Sorry

Edit: You have to change only the Url maybe:

const API_ENDPOINT = "us-central1-aiplatform.googleapis.com";
const URL = https://${API_ENDPOINT}/v1beta1/projects/${process.env.GOOGLE_KEY}/locations/us-central1/publishers/google/models/gemini-pro:streamGenerateContent;

edit: I added api_base as config:
#1630

Example
api_base = "https://us-central1-aiplatform.googleapis.com/v1beta1/projects/${process.env.GOOGLE_KEY}/locations/us-central1/publishers/google"

Thank you.
I'll try it and report later.
