How to use proxy server? #60

Closed matalab closed 10 months ago

matalab commented 1 year ago

Hello, can you please explain how to set and use a proxy?

tasos-py commented 1 year ago

Sure, it's easy. If you use the CLI script you can use the -proxy argument, 

$ python search_engines_cli.py -e google -q "query" -proxy "http://127.0.0.1:8080"

and if you import it use the 1st argument in the constructor, 

proxy = "http://127.0.0.1:8080"
engine = Google(proxy)

Thank you, both for the answer and for your great package! Do you have any recommendation on free and paid proxy lists/APIs?
