YADG Proxy

You can find out your proxy using the Socproxy.ru/ip service from your computer or cell phone. Your IP or proxy address will appear on the main page of the site. Another option is to download the SocialKit Proxy Checker utility, which you can use to check your proxy for validity. If a proxy is used in the browser settings, you can find out its parameters there as well.

Both on a PC and on modern cell phones, a built-in utility that is responsible for working with network connections, provides the ability to set up a connection through a proxy server. You just need to enter the IP-address for connection and the port number. In the future all traffic will be redirected through this proxy. Accordingly, the provider will not block it.

When performing web scraping with authorization in Python, you typically need to simulate the login process of a user by sending the necessary authentication data (such as username and password) to the website. The exact steps depend on the authentication method used by the website, and there are several common approaches

Basic Authentication (using requests library)

If the website uses HTTP Basic Authentication, you can include the authentication credentials in the request headers using the requests library.

import requests

url = 'https://example.com/data'
username = 'your_username'
password = 'your_password'

response = requests.get(url, auth=(username, password))

if response.status_code == 200:
    # Successfully authenticated, you can now parse the content
    print(response.text)
else:
    print(f"Failed to authenticate. Status code: {response.status_code}")

Form-Based Authentication

For websites that use form-based authentication (login form), you need to send a POST request with the appropriate form data.

import requests

login_url = 'https://example.com/login'
data = {
    'username': 'your_username',
    'password': 'your_password',
}

# Use a session to persist the authentication across requests
with requests.Session() as session:
    response = session.post(login_url, data=data)

    if response.status_code == 200:
        # Authentication successful, continue with subsequent requests
        data_url = 'https://example.com/data'
        data_response = session.get(data_url)
        print(data_response.text)
    else:
        print(f"Failed to authenticate. Status code: {response.status_code}")

OAuth Authentication

For websites using OAuth, you might need to use an OAuth library like requests_oauthlib or oauthlib to handle the OAuth flow.

Handling Cookies

Sometimes, authentication is maintained using cookies. In such cases, you need to handle cookies in your requests.

import requests

login_url = 'https://example.com/login'
data = {
    'username': 'your_username',
    'password': 'your_password',
}

# Use a session to persist the authentication across requests
with requests.Session() as session:
    login_response = session.post(login_url, data=data)

    if login_response.status_code == 200:
        # Authentication successful, continue with subsequent requests
        data_url = 'https://example.com/data'
        data_response = session.get(data_url)
        print(data_response.text)
    else:
        print(f"Failed to authenticate. Status code: {login_response.status_code}")

Proxy servers are of the following types:
FTP proxy designed to send data to FTP servers.
CGI proxy, which is used to browse web services in a browser. You do not need to configure any settings. All actions are performed anonymously. Often such proxies are designed in the form of a page where you have to specify the address of a desired site.
SMTP, POP3 and IMAP proxy are designed for sending and receiving email.
HTTP and HTTPS proxies are for scrolling web services.
Socks proxy are used as an anonymizer. No one will know about the user's actions.

To check a proxy for blacklisting, it is necessary to use special tools developed for this purpose. Many proxy-checkers provide free online IP-address verification and provide detailed information related to the proxy servers security. To get it, just enter the IP address of the proxy and click on the "Verify" button.
