Proxies with Python 'Requests' module

Question

Just a short, simple one about the excellent Requests module for Python.

I can't seem to find in the documentation what the variable 'proxies' should contain. When I send it a dict with a standard "IP:PORT" value it rejected it asking for 2 values. So, I guess (because this doesn't seem to be covered in the docs) that the first value is the ip and the second the port?

The docs mention this only:

proxies – (optional) Dictionary mapping protocol to the URL of the proxy.

So I tried this... what should I be doing?

proxy = { ip: port}

and should I convert these to some type before putting them in the dict?

r = requests.get(url,headers=headers,proxies=proxy)

Answer 1

If you'd like to persisist cookies and session data, you'd best do it like this:

import requests

proxies = {
    'http': 'http://user:pass@10.10.1.0:3128',
    'https': 'https://user:pass@10.10.1.0:3128',
}

# Create the session and set the proxies.
s = requests.Session()
s.proxies = proxies

# Make the HTTP request through the session.
r = s.get('http://www.showmemyip.com/')

Answer 2

i just made a proxy graber and also can connect with same grabed proxy without any input here is :

#Import Modules

from termcolor import colored
from selenium import webdriver
import requests
import os
import sys
import time

#Proxy Grab

options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
options.add_argument('headless')
driver = webdriver.Chrome(chrome_options=options)
driver.get("https://www.sslproxies.org/")
tbody = driver.find_element_by_tag_name("tbody")
cell = tbody.find_elements_by_tag_name("tr")
for column in cell:

        column = column.text.split(" ")
        print(colored(column[0]+":"+column[1],'yellow'))
driver.quit()
print("")

os.system('clear')
os.system('cls')

#Proxy Connection

print(colored('Getting Proxies from graber...','green'))
time.sleep(2)
os.system('clear')
os.system('cls')
proxy = {"http": "http://"+ column[0]+":"+column[1]}
url = 'https://mobile.facebook.com/login'
r = requests.get(url,  proxies=proxy)
print("")
print(colored('Connecting using proxy' ,'green'))
print("")
sts = r.status_code
