This allows proxy lists to be easily harvested from a large amount of sources, without implementing custom scraping logic for each source. It does this via using a PhantomJS driver along with the [Javascript Selection API](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Selection). This strips away all HTML tags and makes regex matching trivial. Proxy lists can be used with things like [scrapy-proxies](https://github.com/aivarsk/scrapy-proxies) in order to bypass IP restrictions and improve web crawling speed.\n\n![demo](demo.gif)\n\n## Getting Started\n\nSimply clone the repository, run `npm install`, and `node --harmony proxyfarm --in sources.txt --out proxies.txt`\n\nNPM module coming soon!\n\n### Arguments\n\n| Parameter | Description                                                                                                                   |\n| ---       | ---                                                                                                                           |\n| in        | A text file with line delimited urls to scrape proxies from. See [defaults/sources.txt](defaults/sources.txt) for an example. |\n| out       | The path to save the scraped proxy list to, in the format `\u003chost\u003e:\u003cport\u003e`                                                     |\n\n\n### Prerequisites\n\n- Node.js v6.x and later\n\n## Running the tests\n\nComing soon!\n\n## Contributing\n\nThere are many ways that you can contribute:\n\n- **Improving documentation** - Submit a pull request with the fixes.\n- **Requesting a feature** - Simply create a new issue with the said feature.\n- **Suggesting a proxy list source** - Create a new issue mentioning the new source.\n- **Report a bug** - Find a problem? Create an issue with your environment, screenshot of the error, and reproduction steps.\n- **Fix a bug** - All help appreciated!\n\n## Future Roadmap\n\n- Validating the scraped proxy list\n- Detecting anonymity, speed, and country of the proxy list\n- Automatic crawling of websites rather than manually specifying all proxy lists\n- Handling of ajax pages\n\n## License\n\nThis project is licensed under the MIT License - see the [LICENSE.md](LICENSE.md) file for details\n\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fclemmy%2Fproxyfarm","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fclemmy%2Fproxyfarm","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fclemmy%2Fproxyfarm/lists"}
