proxy-scraper-checker

HTTP, SOCKS4, SOCKS5 proxies scraper and checker.

• Asynchronous.
• Uses regex to search for proxies (ip:port format) on a web page, allowing proxies to be extracted even from json without making changes to the code.
• It is possible to specify the URL to which to send a request to check the proxy.
• Can sort proxies by speed.
• Supports determining the geolocation of the proxy exit node.
• Can determine if the proxy is anonymous.

You can get proxies obtained using this script in multics76/proxy-list.
