Snoopy Setup Proxy IP: Tool-Specific Proxy Server Access Programs

Snoopy Tool Agent Configuration Practical Manual

Engage in network crawler partners should not be unfamiliar with Snoopy, this thing is considered to be the Swiss Army Knife in the world of data capture. However, many people have recently asked how to hang a proxy for it, especially when you need to deal with large-scale tasks, the local IP will be blacked out in minutes. Don't panic, this will teach you how to play around with proxy settings.

Core Parameters Configuration Guide

In Snoopy's configuration file, the three parameters aremust::

proxy_host = "gateway.ipipgo.com" Proxy server address
proxy_port = 9021 access port provided by the service provider
auth_key = "your_api_token" Account key (don't store in plaintext)

It is important to note that there are differences in the way proxies are configured for different protocol types. For example, if you use Socks5, you have to add a protocol declaration parameter to your code. It is recommended to ask ipipgo's technical support for a ready-made configuration template, which saves you a lot of work.

Dynamic IP automatic switching program

Against sites with great anti-crawl mechanisms, you have to use dynamic residential proxies. Take ipipgo's dynamic package for example, their rotation strategy is like this:

The actual test found that with their intelligent routing function, the success rate can be mentioned above 85%. The key is to set up a good retry mechanism in the code, and it is recommended to use the exponential backoff algorithm, so as not to crash the server.

A Guide to Avoiding Pitfalls (Blood Lessons Edition)

I stepped on these mines last year while doing price monitoring for an e-commerce platform:

 Error Demonstration! Don't write it like this!
ProxyHandler({'http': '123.456.789:80'}) Hardcoded IPs get blocked sooner or later!

The correct way to do this is to use ipipgo's API to dynamically fetch a pool of proxies, theirIntelligent RoutingThe function will automatically assign the optimal node according to the target website. Also remember to set the timeout threshold, more than 5 seconds no response to change IP, do not hang on a tree.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What if I can't connect to the proxy server?
A: First check the whitelist setting, ipipgo need to bind local IP. then confirm if the account is in arrears, their package is prepaid mode.

Q: Crawl suddenly slowed down?
A: 80% of the IP is limited by the flow. It is recommended to upgrade to the static residential package, exclusive IP is more stable. Or adjust the request frequency, don't mess with people's servers as DDoS attacks.

Q: How to choose the overseas node if I need it?
A: directly find customer service to open cross-border line, measured U.S. node latency can be controlled within 200ms. However, pay attention to the traffic billing method, large business volume is recommended to choose enterprise packages.

Choose the right service provider to save half the trouble

Having used seven or eight proxy services, the ipipgo points really hit the mark:

• Customer service actually returns work orders in seconds at 3am (suspect they don't sleep)
• Supports hourly billing, no pain for temporary increase in quantity
• There's a smart routing hack that automatically bypasses failed nodes

I've posted their package price list below, and newbies are advised to get the Dynamic Standard to test the waters first:

Finally, a cold knowledge: ipipgo's TK line has a strange effect on some social platforms, specific how to play understand understand. Encountered complex scenarios directly to find their technology customized solutions, than their own tossing to save time enough to earn back the agency fee.
