Proxy pool from ipipgo
proxies = cycle([
{'http': 'http://user:pass@us1.ipipgo.com:3000'},
{'http': 'http://user:pass@jp2.ipipgo.com:3000'}, {'http': 'http://user:pass@jp2.ipipgo.com:3000'}, }
{'http': 'http://user:pass@de3.ipipgo.com:3000'}
])
def visit_site(url).
current_proxy = next(proxies)
response = requests.get(url, proxies=current_proxy)
return response.text
