Ballyregan Save

Find fetch & validate free proxies fast.

Ballyregan is a super fast proxy fetcher.
It provides a python package and an easy-to-use CLI to help you fetch Free Tested Proxies fast, and keep your privacy.

Key features:

• Fetch free tested proxies super fast using the ProxyFetcher
• Validate your own proxies using the ProxyValidator
• Filter custom proxy list by protocol & anonymity using the ProxyFilterer

Install

All you need to do is install the package from pypi, and it will automatically install the CLI for you.

pip install ballyregan

Usage

📦 Package

Create a fetcher instance

from ballyregan import ProxyFetcher

# Setting the debug mode to True, defaults to False
fetcher = ProxyFetcher(debug=True)

Get one proxy

proxy = fetcher.get_one()
print(proxy)

Get multiple proxies

proxies = fetcher.get(limit=4)
print(proxies)

Get proxies by filters

from ballyregan.models import Protocols, Anonymities

proxies = fetcher.get(
  limit=4,
  protocols=[Protocols.HTTPS, Protocols.SOCKS5],
  anonymities=[Anonymities.ELITE]
)
print(proxies)

💻 CLI

Need some help?

ballyregan get --help

ballyregan get

Get all proxies

ballyregan get --all

Use debug mode

ballyregan --debug get [OPTIONS]

Format output to json

ballyregan get -o json

Get proxies by limit

ballyregan get -l 4

Get proxies by filters

ballyregan get -l 4 -p https -p socks5 -a elite

How does it work?

When you use the ProxyFetcher to fetch a proxy, it performs several steps:

1. Gather all the available proxies from a list of built-in providers (each provider gathers its own and returns it to the fetcher).

• Provider - any website that serves free proxy lists (e.g https://free-proxy-list.net).

2. Filter all the gathered proxies by the given protocols and anonymities (if exist).
3. Validate the filtered proxies and return them.

Note
You can write and append your own custom providers and pass them to the ProxyFetcher class as an attribute.
Every custom proxy provider must implement the IProxyProvider base interface.

Behind the scenes

Fetching a proxy is an IO bound operation that depends on the network. A common approach for this problem is performing your network requests async.
After digging a bit, and testing Threads, Greenlets, and async operations, we decided to go the async way.
To perform async HTTP requests, ballyregan uses aiohttp and asyncio, as "asyncio is often a perfect fit for IO-bound and high-level structured network code." (from asyncio docs).
By using the power of async HTTP requests, ballyregan can validate thousands of proxies really fast.
