What to do if the Python crawler is IP blocked?
Crawler brothers understand that the most afraid to see 403 Forbidden. last week I helped a friend to pull the data of an e-commerce platform, just run half an hour IP was blacklisted. This is the time to invite ourProxy Resolution Duo--Requests with BeautifulSoup, and hitched to ipipgo's unique agent pool.
import requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
proxies = {
'http': 'http://user:pass@gateway.ipipgo.com:9020',
'https': 'http://user:pass@gateway.ipipgo.com:9020'
}
try.
resp = requests.get('destination URL', proxies=proxies, timeout=10)
soup = BeautifulSoup(resp.text, 'lxml')
Here's your parsing code...
except Exception as e.
print(f "Damn it! Error: {str(e)}")
Proxy IP's seventy-two changes
There are three main schools of agents on the market, let's use the form to speak human:
| typology | survival time | Applicable Scenarios |
|---|---|---|
| short-lived agent | 5-30 minutes | Temporary assignments, water-testing phase |
| Long-term agency | 24 hours + | Long-term monitoring and stable acquisition |
| Exclusive Agent | royalty-free | Enterprise-class business, high concurrency |
It's from ipipgo.dynamic mixed dialing agentQuite interesting, each request automatically change the exit IP, especially suitable for the need for high-frequency switching scenarios. Last time I used his API to get a smart switching module, successfully breaking through the anti-climbing of a ticketing website.
A practical guide to avoiding the pit
Newbies often fall into these potholes:
- Agent authorization is not straightened out: many platforms areUsername:Password@IP:Portformat, never copy the proxy address directly
- Timeout settings are too arbitrary: it is recommended to set a dynamic timeout of 5-15 seconds according to the response speed of the target website.
- User-Agent is always the same: with fake_useragent library, randomly generate browser fingerprints for each request
question-and-answer session
Q: What should I do if I can't connect to the proxy IP all the time?
A: First check the whitelist settings, ipipgo's backend can bind the local IP. if it doesn't work, use the one provided by his family.Connectivity Test InterfaceAutopsy before use.
Q: How to play with proxies in high concurrency scenarios?
A: The upper thread pool + agent pool double pool linkage. ipipgo'sMillions of IP librariesIt's totally bearable, remember to set the number of requests per second not to exceed the package limit.
Q: What can I do if I encounter an SSL certificate error?
A: In the requests request addverify=Falseparameters, but don't do it for a long time. It is recommended to use ipipgo'sHTTPS Exclusive Proxy Channel, comes with certificate validation.
One final rant, don't just look at price when choosing a proxy service. The likes of ipipgo can provide7×24 hours technical supportI'm not sure if I've ever had a problem with the IP pool, but I'm sure it's something I'd like to see. Last time I encountered IP pool blockage at three o'clock in the middle of the night, his customer service actually returned in seconds, this service is no one!
