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}")

In UDP, the term "connected" has a different meaning compared to TCP. Since UDP is a connectionless protocol, there is no established connection between the sender and receiver. However, you can determine if the UDP socket is in a listening state or if it has been successfully created.

To check if a UDP socket is in a listening state, you can use the socket.SOCK_DGRAM type and the bind() method. If the socket is successfully created and bound to an address and port, it will be in a listening state and ready to receive incoming UDP packets.

Here's an example using Python:

import socket

# Create a UDP socket
server_socket = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_DGRAM)

# Bind the socket to an address and port
server_address = ('localhost', 12345)
server_socket.bind(server_address)

# Check if the socket is in a listening state
print("Socket is in a listening state: ", server_socket.getsockopt(socket.SOL_SOCKET, socket.SO_REUSEADDR) == 1)

# Close the socket
server_socket.close()

In this example, the bind() method creates a UDP socket and binds it to the specified address and port. The getsockopt() method is used to retrieve the SO_REUSEADDR option, which indicates whether the socket is in a listening state. If the value is 1, the socket is in a listening state and ready to receive incoming UDP packets.

It means routing traffic from multiple devices through a single proxy server. In this way you can, for example, organize a local network in an office environment, but where all the traffic data can be viewed from the administrator's server.

To check if your computer uses a proxy-server, you just need to use any browser (Yandex Browser, Opera, Google Chrome). Then you need to follow the algorithm:

Start your browser.
Go to "Settings".
In the search box enter the query "proxy".
Click on "Proxy settings".
In the tab that opens, select "Network settings".
This will open a tab with the IP address and port of the proxy server, if it is used. If the function is disabled, the line will be empty, and the option itself is disabled.

A DNS server is a remote computer that receives a domain request from a user device. And it converts it into an IP address. Sometimes it is through the DNS-server that ISPs block sites. And DNS-proxy, respectively, allows you to bypass these restrictions completely.
