🛡️ Proxy Support

Avoid rate limits and IP bans by routing traffic through a proxy.

from seekify import Search

# Using a SOCKS5 proxy (e.g., Tor)
s = Search(proxy="socks5h://127.0.0.1:9050")

# Using an authenticated HTTP proxy
s = Search(proxy="http://user:password@proxy_ip:port")

# Then use normal search methods
results = s.text("privacy tools")
