Proxies with Python 'Requests' module

Question

Just a short, simple one about the excellent Requests module for Python.

I can\'t seem to find in the documentation what the variable \'proxies\' should contain. Whe

Answer 1

If you'd like to persisist cookies and session data, you'd best do it like this:

import requests

proxies = {
    'http': 'http://user:pass@10.10.1.0:3128',
    'https': 'https://user:pass@10.10.1.0:3128',
}

# Create the session and set the proxies.
s = requests.Session()
s.proxies = proxies

# Make the HTTP request through the session.
r = s.get('http://www.showmemyip.com/')
