proxy-agent
===========
http.Agent
implementationsThis module provides a function that returns proxying http.Agent
instances to
use based off of a given proxy URI. If no URI is provided, then
proxy-from-env is used to get the URI
from $HTTP_PROXY
, $HTTPS_PROXY
and $NO_PROXY
among others.
An LRU cache is used so that http.Agent
instances are transparently re-used for
subsequent HTTP requests to the same proxy server.
The currently implemented protocol mappings are listed in the table below:
Protocol | Proxy Agent for http requests | Proxy Agent for https requests | Example |
---|---|---|---|
http | http-proxy-agent | https-proxy-agent | http://proxy-server-over-tcp.com:3128 |
https | http-proxy-agent | https-proxy-agent | https://proxy-server-over-tls.com:3129 |
socks(v5) | socks-proxy-agent | socks-proxy-agent | socks://username:password@some-socks-proxy.com:9050 (username & password are optional) |
socks5 | socks-proxy-agent | socks-proxy-agent | socks5://username:password@some-socks-proxy.com:9050 (username & password are optional) |
socks4 | socks-proxy-agent | socks-proxy-agent | socks4://some-socks-proxy.com:9050 |
pac | pac-proxy-agent | pac-proxy-agent | pac+http://www.example.com/proxy.pac |
Install with npm
:
$ npm install proxy-agent
var http = require('http');
var ProxyAgent = require('proxy-agent');
// HTTP, HTTPS, or SOCKS proxy to use
var proxyUri = process.env.http_proxy || 'http://168.63.43.102:3128';
var opts = {
method: 'GET',
host: 'jsonip.org',
path: '/',
// this is the important part!
// If no proxyUri is specified, then https://www.npmjs.com/package/proxy-from-env
// is used to get the proxyUri.
agent: new ProxyAgent(proxyUri)
};
// the rest works just like any other normal HTTP request
http.get(opts, onresponse);
function onresponse (res) {
console.log(res.statusCode, res.headers);
res.pipe(process.stdout);
}
Returns an http.Agent
instance based off of the given proxy opts
or URI
string. An LRU cache is used, so the same http.Agent
instance will be
returned if identical args are passed in.
