๐Ÿ“ฆ Install

You have three installation methods to choose from,

# from pip
pip install pyfreeproxy
# from github repo method-1
pip install git+https://github.com/CharlesPikachu/freeproxy.git@master
# from github repo method-2
git clone https://github.com/CharlesPikachu/freeproxy.git
cd freeproxy
python setup.py install

Please note that some proxy sources need to be crawled using Playwright. Playwright will automatically download and configure the browser drivers, so there is no need to worry โ€” it is not malware. For more details, you can refer to the official Playwright documentation.

๐Ÿš€ Quick Start

Scrape proxies from multiple sources

After installing freeproxy, you can run a script to:

  • scrape proxies from multiple sources,
  • print basic statistics for each source,
  • save all retrieved proxies into a JSON file.

Example code (scrape + summarize + save):

import json, random
from tqdm import tqdm
from freeproxy.modules import BaseProxiedSession, ProxyInfo, BuildProxiedSession, printtable, colorize

'''settings'''
SOURCES = ["ProxiflyProxiedSession", "KuaidailiProxiedSession", "QiyunipProxiedSession", "ProxylistProxiedSession"]
TITLES = ["Source", "Retrieved Example", "HTTP", "HTTPS", "SOCKS4", "SOCKS5", "Chinese IP", "Elite", "Total"]

'''scrape'''
def scrape(src: str) -> list[ProxyInfo]:
    try:
        sess: BaseProxiedSession = BuildProxiedSession({"max_pages": 1, "type": src, "disable_print": False})
        return sess.refreshproxies()
    except Exception:
        return []

'''stats'''
def stats(proxies: list[ProxyInfo]) -> dict:
    return {
        "http":   sum(p.protocol.lower() == "http"   for p in proxies),
        "https":  sum(p.protocol.lower() == "https"  for p in proxies),
        "socks4": sum(p.protocol.lower() == "socks4" for p in proxies),
        "socks5": sum(p.protocol.lower() == "socks5" for p in proxies),
        "cn":     sum(bool(p.in_chinese_mainland) for p in proxies),
        "elite":  sum(p.anonymity.lower() == "elite" for p in proxies),
        "total":  len(proxies),
        "ex":     (random.choice(proxies).proxy if proxies else "NULL"),
    }

'''row'''
def row(src: str, s: dict) -> list:
    ex = colorize(s["ex"], "green") if s["total"] else "NULL"
    return [
        src.removesuffix("ProxiedSession"),
        ex,
        colorize(s["http"], "number"),
        colorize(s["https"], "number"),
        colorize(s["socks4"], "number"),
        colorize(s["socks5"], "number"),
        colorize(s["cn"], "number"),
        colorize(s["elite"], "number"),
        colorize(s["total"], "number"),
    ]

'''main'''
def main():
    free_proxies, items = {}, []
    for src in tqdm(SOURCES):
        proxies = scrape(src)
        items.append(row(src, stats(proxies)))
        free_proxies[src] = [p.todict() for p in proxies]
    print("The proxy distribution for each source you specified is as follows:")
    printtable(titles=TITLES, items=items, terminal_right_space_len=1)
    json.dump(free_proxies, open("free_proxies.json", "w"), indent=2)

'''tests'''
if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

Example output (terminal):

C:\Users\Charles\Desktop>python test.py

+-----------+-------------------------------+------+-------+--------+--------+------------+-------+-------+

All proxies are saved to free_proxies.json in the current directory, e.g.:

{
  "KuaidailiProxiedSession": [
    {
      "source": "KuaidailiProxiedSession",
      "protocol": "http",
      "ip": "58.216.109.17",
      "port": "800",
      "country_code": "CN",
      "in_chinese_mainland": true,
      "anonymity": "elite",
      "delay": 124,
      "test_timeout": 5,
      "test_url": "http://www.baidu.com",
      "test_headers": {
        "User-Agent": "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/124.0.0.0 Safari/537.36"
      },
      "failed_connection_default_timeout": 3600000,
      "created_at": "2025-12-03T12:43:25.018208",
      "extra": {}
    }
  ],
  "ProxiflyProxiedSession": [],
  "QiyunipProxiedSession": [],
  "ProxylistProxiedSession": []
}

Tip: Increase max_pages to fetch more proxies from each source.

List supported proxy sources

To list all proxy sources supported by your current freeproxy version:

python -c "from freeproxy.modules import ProxiedSessionBuilder; print(ProxiedSessionBuilder.REGISTERED_MODULES.keys())"

Example output:

dict_keys([
  'ProxiflyProxiedSession': ProxiflyProxiedSession, 'FreeproxylistProxiedSession': FreeproxylistProxiedSession, 'IP89ProxiedSession': IP89ProxiedSession, 'ProxyEliteProxiedSession': ProxyEliteProxiedSession,
  'IP3366ProxiedSession': IP3366ProxiedSession, 'KuaidailiProxiedSession': KuaidailiProxiedSession, 'KxdailiProxiedSession': KxdailiProxiedSession, 'ProxydailyProxiedSession': ProxydailyProxiedSession, 
  'ProxydbProxiedSession': ProxydbProxiedSession, 'ProxyhubProxiedSession': ProxyhubProxiedSession, 'ProxylistProxiedSession': ProxylistProxiedSession, 'QiyunipProxiedSession': QiyunipProxiedSession,
  'SpysoneProxiedSession': SpysoneProxiedSession, 'Tomcat1235ProxiedSession': Tomcat1235ProxiedSession, 'DatabayProxiedSession': DatabayProxiedSession, 'FineProxyProxiedSession': FineProxyProxiedSession, 
  'IPLocateProxiedSession': IPLocateProxiedSession, 'JiliuipProxiedSession': JiliuipProxiedSession, 'TheSpeedXProxiedSession': TheSpeedXProxiedSession, 'GeonodeProxiedSession': GeonodeProxiedSession, 
  'FreeProxyDBProxiedSession': FreeProxyDBProxiedSession, 'ProxyScrapeProxiedSession': ProxyScrapeProxiedSession, 'SCDNProxiedSession': SCDNProxiedSession, 'GoodIPSProxiedSession': GoodIPSProxiedSession,
])

Apply stricter filtering

By default, freeproxy:

  • validates proxy format,
  • de-duplicates results,
  • does not aggressively filter by geography/anonymity/speed unless you specify rules.

You can enforce stricter filtering by passing filter_rule.

Common fields in filter_rule:

  • country_code: e.g., ['CN'], ['US']
  • anonymity: elite, anonymous, transparent (string or list)
  • protocol: http, https, socks4, socks5 (string or list)
  • max_tcp_ms: maximum TCP connect latency (ms)
  • max_http_ms: maximum HTTP request latency to test_url (ms)

Example A: only mainland China proxies

from freeproxy.modules.proxies import IP3366ProxiedSession

sess = IP3366ProxiedSession(filter_rule={"country_code": ["CN"]})
sess.refreshproxies()
print(sess.getrandomproxy(proxy_format="freeproxy"))

Example B: US + elite anonymity

from freeproxy.modules.proxies import SpysoneProxiedSession

sess = SpysoneProxiedSession(filter_rule={"anonymity": ["elite"], "country_code": ["US"]})
sess.refreshproxies()
print(sess.getrandomproxy(proxy_format="freeproxy"))

Example C: constrain protocol + speed

from freeproxy.modules.proxies import FreeproxylistProxiedSession

sess = FreeproxylistProxiedSession(
    filter_rule={
        "protocol": ["http", "https"],
        "max_tcp_ms": 10000,
        "max_http_ms": 10000,
    }
)
sess.refreshproxies()
print(sess.getrandomproxy(proxy_format="freeproxy"))

Note (performance): max_tcp_ms / max_http_ms may significantly slow down crawling when too many proxies are scraped, because each proxy requires additional testing. In general, itโ€™s better to crawl first, then run a separate post-test script if you need strict speed constraints.

Unified client: ProxiedSessionClient

ProxiedSessionClient provides a unified interface across proxy sources and behaves like a requests.Session with an automatically maintained proxy pool.

  • It keeps a proxy pool where all proxies satisfy your filter_rule.
  • Each .get() / .post() consumes at least one proxy.
  • When the pool is low, it automatically replenishes proxies by scraping again.

Minimal example:

from freeproxy.freeproxy import ProxiedSessionClient

proxy_sources = ["KuaidailiProxiedSession"]
init_proxied_session_cfg = {"filter_rule": {"country_code": ["CN", "US"]}}
client = ProxiedSessionClient(
    proxy_sources=proxy_sources, init_proxied_session_cfg=init_proxied_session_cfg,
)
headers = {
    "User-Agent": "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/98.0.4758.102 Safari/537.36"
}
resp = client.get("https://space.bilibili.com/406756145", headers=headers)
print(resp.text)

Quiet mode (suppress logs):

from freeproxy import freeproxy

client = freeproxy.ProxiedSessionClient(
    proxy_sources=["ProxydbProxiedSession"], disable_print=True,
)

Init arguments:

  • proxy_sources (list[str]): proxy sources to use.
  • init_proxied_session_cfg (dict): session config; supports:
    • max_pages: pages to fetch per source
    • filter_rule: filtering rules described above
    • plus standard requests.Session options
  • disable_print (bool): suppress proxy usage logs.
  • max_tries (int): max attempts per .get() / .post() call.

Example: filter scraped proxies via the unified client

from freeproxy.freeproxy import ProxiedSessionClient

client = ProxiedSessionClient(
    proxy_sources=["ProxyScrapeProxiedSession", "ProxylistProxiedSession"],
    init_proxied_session_cfg={
        "max_pages": 2,
        "filter_rule": {
            "country_code": ["CN"],
            "anonymity": ["elite"],
            "protocol": ["http", "https"],
        },
    },
    disable_print=False,
    max_tries=20,
)
headers = {
    'User-Agent': 'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/143.0.0.0 Safari/537.36',
}
resp = client.get("https://www.baidu.com/", timeout=10, headers=headers)
print(resp.text)
resp = client.get("https://httpbin.org/ip", timeout=5)
print(resp.json())
resp = client.get("https://httpbin.org/anything", timeout=15)
print(resp.json())
print("origin:", resp.json().get("origin"))
print("X-Forwarded-For:", resp.json()["headers"].get("X-Forwarded-For"))
print("Forwarded:", resp.json()["headers"].get("Forwarded"))

Final note: you can refer to freeproxyโ€™s source code to unlock more features, the overall codebase is small and easy to navigate.
