http-request

Is there a way to send an HTTP request with a different IP from what I have in Node.js? I want to send a request from an IP that I choose before, and not from the IP of the server or from my computer’s IP. I know that Tor Project does this kind of manipulation, but I didn't find any library that Tor uses to do this stuff. Is there any API or Node.js module that Tor uses to handle this kind of private browsing in Node.js? In the node http module there is a localAddress option for binding to specific network interface. var http = require('http'); var options = { hostname: 'www.example.com',

How do I pass a composite JSON structure via AJAX call from JS and on the server side, read it as a "very similar" data structure in python? I understand that json formatting can be used (simplejson etc), but I somehow feel that the QueryDict itself is malformed or reformatted in my case? Example: When passing an array of JSON objects [{"id": 1},{"id": 2},{"id": 3}] via AJAX to Django view, the QueryDict gets formatted as: POST:<QueryDict: {u'json_data[0][id]': [u'1'], u'type': [u'clone'], u'csrfmiddlewaretoken': [u'69bb3c434ced31ab301ede04bf491ec0'], u'json_data[1][id]': [u'2'], u'json_data[2

I'm using Python Requests. All works great but today I get this strange error: [...] File "/usr/local/Cellar/python/2.7.2/lib/python2.7/site-packages/requests/models.py", line 321, in full_url netloc = netloc.encode('idna').decode('utf-8') LookupError: unknown encoding: idna Any ideas what could be wrong? I'm using Python 2.7.2 from brew. Try adding: import encodings.idna in various places to sift out other errors. I ran into this same problem working on a port of python to a new platform. We had only partial library support and unicodedata was missing which was causing imports of the idna

I have a question regarding the safety of performing parallel HTTP-requests using libcurl (C++). When reading this question, please bear in mind I have limited knowledge about HTTP-requests in general. Basically, let's say I have two (or more) threads, each thread makes a HTTP-request once per second. (All the requests made are to the same server). How does my program (or something else?) keep track of what HTTP-response belongs to which tread? I mean, can I be sure that if request A was sent from thread 1, and request B from thread 2 at the same time, and the responses are retrived at the

I have looked through many SO threads on how to create a session using the requests library, but none of the methods I tried actually log me in. I have very little experience with web design and protocols, so please point out any basics that I might need to understand. Here is what I'm doing: import requests EMAIL = 'my_email' PASSWORD = 'my_pw' URL = 'https://account.guildwars2.com/login' session = requests.session() login_data = dict(username=EMAIL, password=PASSWORD) r = session.post(URL, data=login_data) req = session.get('https://leaderboards.guildwars2.com/en/na/achievements/guild
