Why do I need a proxy IP for Python requests?
The old iron engaged in crawlers must have encountered this situation: the target site suddenly blocked your IP, or access frequency is too high to be restricted. At this time, it is like playing the game was disconnected, the whole person is not good. Proxy IP is to find someone else to help you forward the request, like a courier brother to help you receive packages, both to protect the real address and not delay things.
For example, if you use ipipgo's dynamic residential IP, you will change your address every time you request. As if every time you go out to change a new suit, the site administrator simply can not recognize that you are the same person. Especially when you need to collect a lot of data, the proxy IP is simply a lifesaver.
Handy three tips to set up your agent
Here to the guys whole a few commonly used library setup method, according to copy homework on the line:
The Hidden Tricks of the Requests Library
import requests
proxies = {
'http': 'http://用户名:密码@gateway.ipipgo.com:端口',
'https': 'http://用户名:密码@gateway.ipipgo.com:端口'
}
resp = requests.get('destination URL', proxies=proxies, timeout=10)
print(resp.text)
focus onThe username and password should correspond to the agent's backendIf you are a ipipgo user, you can generate authorization information directly from the console. If you use Socks5 protocol, just change the protocol header to socks5://.
Fancy manipulation of urllib
from urllib.request import ProxyHandler, build_opener
proxy = ProxyHandler({
'https': '117.88.176.66:30001'
})
opener = build_opener(proxy)
response = opener.open('destination URL')
print(response.read().decode())
This is suitable for the need for fine control of the request process, remember to change the IP to the actual address provided by ipipgo, each of their home IP with geographic location labeling, select the target area IP better results.
Avoid these potholes and you'll be king.
A common rollover scene for newbies:
1. The agent is not in force:First use httpbin.org/ip to test the return value, see the return IP changed before counting as success!
2. Timeout settings:When the network is unstable, it is recommended to set timeout=15, don't wait!
3. Concurrency control:For multi-threading, remember to use separate proxies for each thread, rather than sharing the same one.
| Type of error | method settle an issue |
|---|---|
| 407 Agent Authentication Failure | Check account password or contact ipipgo customer service to reset it |
| Connection timeout | Switching other regional nodes or protocol types |
QA First Aid Kit
Q: What should I do if the proxy fails when I use it?
A: It is recommended to use ipipgo's dynamic residential package, their family automatically refreshes the IP pool, the code with an exception retry mechanism is more secure.
Q: What if I need to process a CAPTCHA?
A: Try TK dedicated proxy, this kind of IP after special processing, can reduce the probability of triggering the verification code. If you can't, you can use ipipgo's cloud server to deploy the coding platform.
Q: Agents are slow as snails?
A:优先选本地运营商资源,比如目标网站在美国就选ipipgo的美国静态住宅IP。跨境专线虽然贵点,但能降60%以上。
Choosing the right service provider is less of a hassle
用过七八家代理服务,ipipgo有三把刷子特别实用:一是支持按量付费,学生党也能玩得起;二是客户端自带测速功能,能实时看到各个节点的;三是客服响应快,上次半夜两点提工单居然秒回。
Their packages are very flexible, personal development, choose dynamic standard version is enough, enterprise-level business directly on the customized program. The point is not like some platforms to play word games, all IP are labeled with the type of operator and geographic location, with a solid heart.
Finally, a friendly advice: test phase first pay per volume package, and then buy a monthly subscription when running smoothly. When it comes to special needs such as fixed IP for whitelisting, directly find customer service to open a static residential package, report my name ... ... Forget it, they did not give discounts, or honestly go through the official channels.
