US Based Proxy Server

A proxy for Instagram may be needed in the case when it comes to promoting two or more pages in this popular network. Otherwise, blocking on a permanent or temporary basis of all existing accounts will immediately follow. Proxy servers not only allow you to secure your accounts, but also protect against network attacks, increase the speed of data access, transform data to reduce the memory footprint of the device.

The main task is to monitor traffic on the local network, as all requests will be handled by an organized proxy. Most often it is used to block access to certain resources in offices.

To pass a Selenium WebDriver instance to a Python decorator, you can create a custom decorator that takes the WebDriver instance as an argument. Here's an example of how to do this:

First, create a custom decorator that accepts the WebDriver instance:

def webdriver_decorator(driver):
    def decorator(func):
        @functools.wraps(func)
        def wrapper(*args, **kwargs):
            return func(driver, *args, **kwargs)
        return wrapper
    return decorator

Create a function that takes the WebDriver instance as an argument and performs the desired action:

from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC

def my_function(driver, search_query):
    driver.get('https://example.com')
    search_box = WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(EC.visibility_of_element_located((By.ID, 'search-box')))
    search_box.send_keys(search_query)
    search_box.send_keys(Keys.RETURN)

Apply the custom decorator to the function and pass the WebDriver instance:

@webdriver_decorator
def my_function_with_decorator(driver, search_query):
    return my_function(driver, search_query)

Now you can use the decorated function and pass the WebDriver instance:

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

search_results = my_function_with_decorator(driver, 'your search query')

In this example, the my_function_with_decorator function is the same as the my_function function, but it is wrapped by the webdriver_decorator. When you call my_function_with_decorator, you need to pass the WebDriver instance as the first argument.

To configure a Socks5 proxy for Chrome in Selenium using Python, you can use the --proxy-server command-line option with the Socks5 proxy address. Here's an example using the webdriver.Chrome class in Python:

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service as ChromeService

# Socks5 proxy configuration
socks5_proxy = "socks5://127.0.0.1:1080"  # Replace with your actual Socks5 proxy address

# Configure Chrome options with proxy settings
chrome_options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
chrome_options.add_argument(f'--proxy-server={socks5_proxy}')

# Create a Chrome WebDriver instance with the configured options
chrome_service = ChromeService(executable_path="path/to/chromedriver")  # Replace with the actual path
driver = webdriver.Chrome(service=chrome_service, options=chrome_options)

# Example: Navigate to a website using the configured proxy
driver.get("https://www.example.com")

# Perform other actions with the WebDriver as needed

# Close the browser window
driver.quit()

- Replace "socks5://127.0.0.1:1080" with the actual Socks5 proxy address you want to use.
- Download the ChromeDriver executable from the official ChromeDriver download page and provide the path to the executable in the executable_path parameter of ChromeService.
- Update the driver.get() method to navigate to the website you want.

Make sure to have the selenium library installed (pip install selenium) and ensure that the ChromeDriver version is compatible with the Chrome browser installed on your system.

Google Chrome doesn't have a built-in function to work with a proxy server, although there is such an item in the settings. But when you click on it, you are automatically "redirected" to the standard proxy settings in Windows (or any other operating system).
