HTTP requests spoofer

Freely available & most common web scraping techniques intended to bypass simple anti-scraping measures.

What is this?

It's a library with a dead simple interface that
allows making HTTP GET & POST requests via random
free proxy meanwhile spoofing the user agent header.

How it works?

1. It first tries to download a list of free proxies from
   https://free-proxy-list.net/ retrying a user defined number
   of times on fail and then choosing only elite proxies with
   HTTPS support.

2. Then it tests newly scraped proxies with a 1 sec timeout
   and if the proxy is alive it gets appended to a list.

3. Finally it randomly picks up a proxy from a list and
   uses it to make a request to the target URL.
   If proxy fails for some reason original IP is used instead.

How to use it

# import library & dependencies
from scraper import *

# default params are: (use_proxy=True, spoof_agent=True, tries=5, delay=0)
scraper = Scraper()

# if you want to use custom headers
scraper.headers = {

}

# make GET request
response_get = scraper.GET('https://enckllaec924.x.pipedream.net/')
print(response_get, response_get.text)

# make POST request
response_post = scraper.POST('https://enckllaec924.x.pipedream.net/', {'param1': 'val1', 'param2': 'val2'})
print(response_post, response_post.text)

# check out at

# test proxies
print('Testing proxies:')
