Python requests socks5

by

The requests library in Python allows you to send HTTP requests and handle the responses easily. However, by default, it does not support SOCKS proxies. To make requests through a SOCKS5 proxy, you can use a library called requests-socks.

First, you need to install the requests-socks library using pip: 

    
    $ pip install requests-socks

Once installed, you can use the library to make requests through a SOCKS5 proxy. Here’s an example: 

    
    import requests
    import requests_unixsocket

    session = requests_unixsocket.Session()
    session.proxies = {
        'http': 'socks5://:',
        'https': 'socks5://:'
    }

    response = session.get('http://example.com')
    print(response.status_code)

In the above code, we first import the necessary libraries. We then create a session using the requests_unixsocket library, which allows us to make requests over a SOCKS5 proxy. We set the proxy configuration in the session’s proxies attribute, specifying the SOCKS5 proxy IP address and port. Next, we make a GET request to http://example.com using the session. Finally, we print the response status code.

You can replace <proxy_ip_address> and <proxy_port> with the actual IP address and port of your SOCKS5 proxy server.
