Proxy checker that verifies if proxies are able to connect to PokemonGo servers.

• Originally forked from Neskks proxy checker.
• Proxy testing code came mostly from RocketMap.
• Inspiration and ideas from SenorKarlos PGPool.
• Inspiration and ideas from a-moss/Proxy Scraper for Pokemon Go

• Python 2
• Multi-threaded proxy checker
• HTTP and SOCKS protocols
• Test if proxies are anonymous
• Output final proxy list in several formats

• Python 2
• configargparse
• requests
• urllib3
• BeautifulSoup 4
• PyMySQL

Run the usual pip install -r requirements.txt.

If planning on using Proxy Pool, you will also need to setup a MySQL database.

Two options are available.

• proxy_check.py Allows you to manually scrape and validate proxies from various locations.
• proxy_pool.py Runs as a server that can be queried to obtain a list of valid proxies. The service runs scrapes and validations automatically as per configuration options.

There is no configuration file for proxy_check.py, instead, use the command line options:

python proxy_check.py [-h] [-v] (-f PROXY_FILE | -s) [-m {http,socks}]
                [-o OUTPUT_FILE] [-r RETRIES] [-t TIMEOUT] [-pj PROXY_JUDGE]
                [-na] [-nt | -er] [-bf BACKOFF_FACTOR] [-mc MAX_CONCURRENCY]
                [-bs BATCH_SIZE] [-l LIMIT] [-ic IGNORE_COUNTRY]
                [--proxychains | --kinancity | --clean]

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -v, --verbose         Run in the verbose mode.
  -f PROXY_FILE, --proxy-file PROXY_FILE
                        Filename of proxy list to verify.
  -s, --scrape          Scrape webpages for proxy lists.
  -m {http,socks}, --mode {http,socks}
                        Specify which proxy mode to use for testing. Default
                        is "socks".
  -o OUTPUT_FILE, --output-file OUTPUT_FILE
                        Output filename for working proxies.
  -r RETRIES, --retries RETRIES
                        Number of attempts to check each proxy.
  -t TIMEOUT, --timeout TIMEOUT
                        Connection timeout. Default is 5 seconds.
  -pj PROXY_JUDGE, --proxy-judge PROXY_JUDGE
                        URL for AZenv script used to test proxies.
  -na, --no-anonymous   Disable anonymous proxy test.
  -nt, --no-test        Disable PTC/Niantic proxy test.
  -er, --extra-request  Make an extra request to validate PTC.
  -bf BACKOFF_FACTOR, --backoff-factor BACKOFF_FACTOR
                        Factor (in seconds) by which the delay until next
                        retry will increase.
  -mc MAX_CONCURRENCY, --max-concurrency MAX_CONCURRENCY
                        Maximum concurrent proxy testing requests.
  -bs BATCH_SIZE, --batch-size BATCH_SIZE
                        Check proxies in batches of limited size.
  -l LIMIT, --limit LIMIT
                        Stop tests when we have enough good proxies.
  -ic IGNORE_COUNTRY, --ignore-country IGNORE_COUNTRY
                        Ignore proxies from countries in this list.
  -gu, --geoip_url      URL to lookup the geo-location/country of IP.
  --proxychains         Output in proxychains-ng format.
  --kinancity           Output in Kinan City format.
  --clean               Output proxy list without protocol.

1. Copy config/config.ini.sample to config/config.ini.
2. Adjust settings for listening host:port and your database in config.ini.
3. Adjust any additional settings to meet your requirements in config.ini.
4. Run Proxy Pool with python proxy_pool.py.

You can also provide a custom configuration file using -cf:

python proxy_pool.py -cf config/config.ini

You can also provide parameters on the command line. Use -h for help.

python proxy_pool.py -h

After setting up configuration, you can import proxies listed in a text file:

127.0.0.1:12345
127.0.0.2:12345
127.0.0.3:12345

Then using the --proxy-file argument, pass in the text file:

python proxy_pool.py -cf config/config.ini --proxy-file import_proxies.txt

This will then validate each proxy provided and import them into the database. Their state (working, banned, failed) will be recorded during the import.

Let's assume PGProxy runs at the default URL http://localhost:4343. Then the following requests are possible:

Method: GET URL: http://localhost:4343/proxy/request

If no parameter is provided, only working proxies will be returned. You can combine the parameters to get a mixed list of proxies.

JSON Returns a JSON object or a list of JSON objects representing proxies and their state:

[
	{
		"url": "http://127.0.0.1:12345",
		"working": false,
		"banned": true,
		"failed": true
	}
]

TXT Returns a list of just the proxies, each on their own line:

127.0.0.1:12345
127.0.0.2:12345
127.0.0.3:12345

LIST Returns the proxies as a list structure:

[127.0.0.1:12345, 127.0.0.2:12345, 127.0.0.3:12345]

Method: POST URL: http://localhost:4343/proxy/update

Request data is either a single JSON object or a list of JSON objects that contain one or more attributes to set on the proxy. If you send more than one attribute, the proxy will be flagged with each one, so be careful what you send.
