Description:
grey harvest 0.1.5
grey_harvest
Scrapes the web for reliable http/https proxies and tests them for
speed and reliability. Can be used as both a python module and a
command line utility. When run as a command line utility, proxies
are sent to stdout. When run as a module, it returns a generator.
Check out the project on PyPi at https://pypi.python.org/pypi/grey_harvest/0.1.3.5
Key Features
Quickly and easily generate a list of reliable http/https proxies
Usable as a comamnd line utility or a python module
Can filter for proxies that support SSL
Can filter for proxies locationed within specific countries
Can exclude proxies located within specific countries
Installation
First, install the following dependencies:
# On Centos/RHEL/Fedora:
sudo yum install python-devel libxlt-devel libxml-devel
# On Debian/Ubuntu:
sudo apt-get install python-dev libxml2-dev libxslt1-dev
Then install grey_harvest using pip as follows:
pip install grey_harvest
Usage
We can generate a list of 10 viable proxies with the following command:
# use the -n flag to specify number of proxies to generate
grey_harvest -n 10
To select only proxies with SSL enabled, we do this:
# use the -H flag to select only https proxies
grey_harvest -n 10 -H
We can use the -a flag to filter for proxies located within a
list of specific countries. For example, to choose proxies located
within Ukraine, Hong Kong, and the United States, we’d use this:
# use the -a flag to filter by country
grey_harvest -a "United States" "Hong Kong" Ukraine -n 10
We can use the -p flag to filter for ports running on specific ports:
# the -p flag to only use proxies that run on port 80
grey_harvest -p 80 -n 10
We can deny proxies located within specific countries by using
the -d flag. Proxies located within China are blocked by default
as they are often located behind the Great Firewall, and as such
tend to be unreliable. This can be changed within grey_harvest.py’s
internal configs.:
# use the -d flag to deny proxies located within France and
# Germany
grey_harvest -d France Germany -n 10 -H
grey_harvest library - basic example
Before diving into the documentation for the grey_harvest library,
check out how easily we can generate a list of 20 proxies:
import gray_harvest
''' spawn a harvester '''
harvester = grey_harvest.GreyHarvester()
''' harvest some proxies from teh interwebz '''
count = 0
for proxy in harvester.run():
print proxy
count += 1
if count >= 20:
break
That’s it. We now have 20 http/https proxies ready to go.
