Why do you need to write your own proxy IP verification script?
Many users often encounter free proxy IPs when using theConnection timeout, speed lag, sudden failureThe problem. It takes 20-30 seconds to test each IP manually, and nearly an hour if you want to test 100 IPs. With automated verification via Python scripts, you can complete the workload of half a day in 5 minutes, and you can also monitor the IP survival status in real time.
Build a basic validation framework in three steps
There are three key actions to accomplish at the core of the script:Read IP list→initiate test request→record available results. Here's a simple template:
"`python
import requests
ip_list = ["111.222.33.44:8080", "55.66.77.88:3128"]
for proxy in ip_list:
try.
response = requests.get("http://example.com",
proxies={"http": proxy},
timeout=5)
if response.status_code == 200:: If response.status_code == 200.
print(f "Available IP: {proxy}")
except.
continue
“`
Four optimization points to make validation more professional
The basic version of the script can only detect whether the IP is alive or not, and needs to be considered for actual use:
test dimension | Implementation methodology | Description of the role |
---|---|---|
responsiveness | Logging request elapsed time | Filter slow nodes |
stability | Repeat the test 3 times | Troubleshooting |
Protocol Support | Test HTTP/HTTPS separately | Identify encrypted channels |
geographic location | Calling the IP Library API | Confirmation of physical location |
How to break the three major weaknesses of free IP?
Free proxy IPs found to exist in real-world testingShort survival time (2-3 hours on average), low availability (less than 20%), bandwidth constraintsThe three hardest things to do. It is recommended to set the validation script to run automatically every 2 hours, along with ipipgo'sResidential IP Resource PoolIts 90 million+ dynamic IPs continue to provide fresh, available resources.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q:Why does the actual use of the verified IP still fail?
A: Free IP presencemultiplexsituation, it is recommended to add concurrency count detection in the script to automatically switch to a new IP when the latency suddenly increases.
Q: How can I avoid being blocked by the target website?
A: Randomly switch User-Agent in the script with the full protocol types supported by ipipgo to simulate the real access characteristics of different devices.
Recommended professional-grade solutions
When dealing with high volume tasks, it is recommended to access ipipgo's API interface. Their intelligent scheduling system supportsAutomatic switching of IP types on demandIt is especially suitable for projects that require long-term stable operation. Its resource distribution covering more than 240 countries/regions easily realizes the precise calling of specific regional IPs.
