Clockwork Proxy

Before you change your proxy server, you should decide what kind of proxy you would like to install. There are a lot of choices, depending on your needs. Every buyer, when buying a proxy server, is given all the necessary information with the data for access - username and password, port, IP address. Without these data, you can't install and configure the proxy.

In Selenium with Python, you can set the name of the downloaded file by using the set_preference() method on the Options object before initializing the WebDriver. Here's an example using Chrome:

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options

# Set the path to the ChromeDriver executable
chrome_driver_path = "path/to/chromedriver"

# Set the preference to save downloaded files with a specific name pattern
options = Options()
options.add_argument("download.default_directory='path/to/download/folder'")
options.add_argument(f"download.download_path='path/to/download/folder'")
options.add_preference("download.filename_template", "%f - %r")

# Initialize the Chrome WebDriver with the specified options
driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path=chrome_driver_path, options=options)

# Your Selenium code goes here

# Close the browser
driver.quit()

Replace path/to/chromedriver, path/to/download/folder, and %f - %r with the appropriate values for your setup. The %f placeholder is replaced by the file name, and the %r placeholder is replaced by the original file name.

This example sets the download directory and the filename template for downloaded files. When a file is downloaded, it will be saved with a name that includes the original file name and a unique identifier, separated by a dash.

Keep in mind that this approach sets the download preferences for the entire browser session. If you need to change the download preferences for a specific test, you can set them before the test runs and reset them afterward.

Under the parsing of goods often mean the collection of a database in which the data is entered about all the items sold in online stores. For example, the famous service e-katalog is just engaged in this type of parsing. And then it simply structures all the data obtained and publishes them on its site.

In data centers, proxies are used to provide IP to virtual servers. After all, one server there can be used by a dozen users at the same time. And each needs to be allocated its own IP and port. All this is done through proxies.

A proxy server is a kind of "mediator" between your equipment and a remote server (or the whole Internet). It can be used, for example, to swap your real IP address for another one, to bypass blocking. Proxies can also be actively used to intercept traffic (e.g. when testing created web applications).
