How can I set a single proxy for a requests session object?

Question

I\'m using the Python requests package to send http requests. I want to add a single proxy to the requests session object. eg.

session = requests.Session()
s         


        

Answer 1

There are other ways you can set proxies, apart from the solutions you have got so far:

import requests

with requests.Session() as s:
    # either like this
    s.proxies = {'https': 'http://105.234.154.195:8888', 'http': 'http://199.188.92.69:8000'}
    # or like this
    s.proxies['https'] = 'http://105.234.154.195:8888'
    r = s.get(link)

Hopefully this may lead to an answer:

urllib3.util.url.parse_url(url) Given a url, return a parsed Url namedtuple. Best-effort is performed to parse incomplete urls. Fields not provided will be None.

Answer 3

In fact, you are right, but you must ensure your defination of 'line', I have tried this , it's ok:

>>> import requests
>>> s = requests.Session()
>>> s.get("http://www.baidu.com", proxies={'http': 'http://10.11.4.254:3128'})

Did you define the line like line = ' 59.43.102.33:80', there is a space at the front of address.

Answer 4

In addition to @neowu' answer, if you would like to set a proxy for the lifetime of a session object, you can also do the following -

import requests
proxies = {'http': 'http://10.11.4.254:3128'}
s = requests.session()
s.proxies.update(proxies)
s.get("http://www.example.com")   # Here the proxies will also be automatically used because we have attached those to the session object, so no need to pass separately in each call
