Usage

Command Line Interface

Once installed, you can use the main command:

proxidize_pt [options] <proxy_file_or_single_proxy>

Basic Examples

# Test a single HTTP proxy
proxidize_pt --http pg.proxi.es:20000:username:password

# Test a single SOCKS5 proxy with geo-location
proxidize_pt --socks --geo pg.proxi.es:20002:username:password

# Test proxies from a file with speed test and verbose output
proxidize_pt --http --geo --speed-test -v proxies.txt

# Export results to CSV format
proxidize_pt --http --geo proxies.txt -o results.csv

# Export results to TXT format
proxidize_pt --http --geo proxies.txt -o results.txt

# Without specifying extension (defaults to CSV)
proxidize_pt --http --geo proxies.txt -o results

# Interactive mode (no arguments)
proxidize_pt

Command Line Options

positional arguments:
  proxy                 Single proxy or path to proxy list file

options:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  --socks               Use SOCKS5 proxy
  --http                Use HTTP proxy
  --geo                 Enable IP geolocation lookup
  --speed-test          Include download speed test
  -o OUTPUT, --output OUTPUT
                        Output file path - specify format with extension (.txt default, .csv available)
  -v, --verbose         Enable verbose debug output

Output Formats

Results can be saved in two formats by specifying the file extension:

• TXT format: Use .txt extension (e.g., results.txt) - Tab-separated values, human-readable plain text format (default)
• CSV format: Use .csv extension (e.g., results.csv) - Comma-separated values, ideal for spreadsheet applications and data analysis

The output format is automatically determined by the file extension you provide. If no extension is specified, TXT format is used by default.

Proxy Format

Proxies should be in the format: host:port:username:password

Examples:

proxy.example.com:8080:user123:pass123
192.168.1.100:3128:admin:secret
pg.proxi.es:20000:username:password
pg.proxi.es:20002:username:password

Input Methods

1. Single Proxy: Pass a proxy directly as an argument (without quotes)
2. File Input: Create a text file with one proxy per line
3. Interactive Mode: Run without arguments to enter proxies manually. After testing, you'll be prompted to save results in TXT format by default (or CSV if you specify .csv extension).

Example File (proxies.txt):

proxy1.example.com:8080:user1:pass1
proxy2.example.com:3128:user2:pass2
pg.proxi.es:20000:username:password
pg.proxi.es:20002:username:password

Proxidize works on all major platforms:

• ✅ Windows (Windows 10, 11)
• ✅ Linux (Ubuntu, Debian, CentOS, etc.)
• ✅ macOS (10.14+)

Requirements

• Python 3.7 or higher

Troubleshooting Installation

Error: "externally-managed-environment"

This error occurs on newer Python installations (especially with Homebrew on macOS). Use one of these solutions:

1. Recommended: Use pipx for application installation:

   pip install --user pipx
   pipx install proxidize_pt
   

2. Use virtual environment:

   python3 -m venv venv
   source venv/bin/activate  # On Windows: venv\Scripts\activate
   pip install proxidize_pt
   

3. User installation:

   pip install --user proxidize_pt
