Residential SOCKS5 Proxy

In Node.js, you can introduce delays in your scraping logic using the setTimeout function, which allows you to execute a function after a specified amount of time has passed. This is useful for implementing delays between consecutive requests to avoid overwhelming a server or to comply with rate-limiting policies.

Here's a simple example using the setTimeout function in a Node.js script:

const axios = require('axios'); // Assuming you use Axios for making HTTP requests

// Function to scrape data from a URL with a delay
async function scrapeWithDelay(url, delay) {
  try {
    // Make the HTTP request
    const response = await axios.get(url);

    // Process the response data (replace this with your scraping logic)
    console.log(`Scraped data from ${url}:`, response.data);

    // Introduce a delay before making the next request
    await sleep(delay);

    // Make the next request or perform additional scraping logic
    // ...

  } catch (error) {
    console.error(`Error scraping data from ${url}:`, error.message);
  }
}

// Function to introduce a delay using setTimeout
function sleep(ms) {
  return new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(resolve, ms));
}

// Example usage
const urlsToScrape = ['https://example.com/page1', 'https://example.com/page2', 'https://example.com/page3'];

// Loop through each URL and initiate scraping with a delay
const delayBetweenRequests = 2000; // Adjust the delay time in milliseconds (e.g., 2000 for 2 seconds)
for (const url of urlsToScrape) {
  scrapeWithDelay(url, delayBetweenRequests);
}

In this example:

• The scrapeWithDelay function performs the scraping logic for a given URL and introduces a delay before making the next request.
• The sleep function is a simple utility function that returns a promise that resolves after a specified number of milliseconds, effectively introducing a delay.
• The urlsToScrape array contains the URLs you want to scrape. Adjust the delay time (delayBetweenRequests) based on your scraping needs.

Please note that introducing delays is crucial when scraping websites to avoid being blocked or flagged for suspicious activity.

In Selenium with Python, you can add cookies to your browser session using the add_cookie method of the WebDriver's options or add_cookie method of the WebDriver instance. If you have cookies saved in a file, you can read the file and then add the cookies to your Selenium session. Here's an example:

from selenium import webdriver
import pickle

# Create a new instance of the browser (e.g., Chrome)
driver = webdriver.Chrome()

# Read cookies from a file (replace 'cookies.pkl' with your actual file name)
with open('cookies.pkl', 'rb') as cookies_file:
    cookies = pickle.load(cookies_file)

# Add each cookie to the browser session
for cookie in cookies:
    driver.add_cookie(cookie)

# Now the browser should have the added cookies

# Example: Navigate to a website after setting cookies
driver.get('https://example.com')

# Continue with your script...

# Close the browser when done
driver.quit()

In this example:

1. The Selenium WebDriver (Chrome in this case) is created.
2. Cookies are read from a file using the pickle module. Make sure your cookies file is in the correct format (a list of dictionaries).
3. Each cookie is added to the browser session using the add_cookie method.
4. The script navigates to a website (https://example.com) after setting the cookies. Adjust this part according to your specific use case.
5. The browser is closed using driver.quit() when the script is done.

Make sure to replace 'cookies.pkl' with the actual path to your cookies file.

Note: The format of the cookies file is crucial. It should be a list of dictionaries, and each dictionary should contain at least the keys 'name', 'value', 'domain', and 'path'. If the cookies were obtained using get_cookies() in a previous Selenium session, you can directly save the result using pickle.dump(cookies, file).

Here's a simple example of how to save cookies:

from selenium import webdriver
import pickle

driver = webdriver.Chrome()
driver.get('https://example.com')

# Get cookies
cookies = driver.get_cookies()

# Save cookies to a file
with open('cookies.pkl', 'wb') as cookies_file:
    pickle.dump(cookies, cookies_file)

driver.quit()

Then, you can use the first script to load and set these cookies in a new Selenium session.

In the context of a router, a proxy refers to a feature or service that acts as an intermediary between the router and external networks or resources. The primary purpose of a proxy in a router is to enhance security, optimize performance, and manage traffic.

On the PC you can use SOCKS5 proxies, for example, through the browser Firefox. There are such a function in the settings, you just need to activate it. The only nuance: the connection speed or ping indicators in this case may be slowed down.

The proxy domain most often refers to the IP address where the server is located. It can only "learn" the IP address of the user when processing the traffic. But in most cases it does not store such information later for security reasons.
