[Bot Testing] How to use freeproxy, minimal usage?

Sure! Here’s a quick, “bare‑bones” example that shows the absolute minimum you need to get a working list of proxies.

# 1. Install the package first
# pip install pyfreeproxy   # or pip install freeproxy

# 2. Import the helper that builds the session
from freeproxy.modules import BuildProxiedSession

# 3. Pick one source (e.g. FreeProxyList) – any of the `*ProxiedSession` names works
source_name = "FreeProxyListProxiedSession"

# 4. Build the session (you can leave all options at their defaults)
session = BuildProxiedSession({"type": source_name})

# 5. Refresh (fetch) proxies
proxies = session.refreshproxies()   # returns a list of `ProxyInfo` objects

# 6. Use them – here we just print the first 5 proxies
for p in proxies[:5]:
    print(f"{p.protocol.upper()}://{p.ip}:{p.port}")

That’s it!

• If you don’t need a custom source, you can simply use BuildProxiedSession() with no arguments; it will auto‑detect and pick the best one.
• The returned ProxyInfo objects contain useful attributes (protocol, ip, port, origin_country, anonymity, etc.) you can use for filtering on your own.

Happy hacking! 😄
