cURL proxy

[Deanznet]

Okay here is the thing...  i know how to add proxys

 

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_PROXYTYPE, CURLPROXY_HTTP);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_PROXY,"[i][b]PROXYHERE[/b][/i]");

 

Here are my questions.. What kind of proxy dose it use? ( Sock5? http? Sock4? ect..)

 

Okay second here the php part. I need it to read a txt file on the server called proxylist.txt

 

and randomly pick a proxy from it but after it picks it. it has to remove it from the TXT file.

 

Help!?@!

Since you set the proxy type to HTTP, I would assume it will use an HTTP proxy.  There is documentation for curl_setopt here.

 

For your second question, that sounds awkward.  What problem are you trying to solve by using that text file?

[Deanznet]

Because i cant use the same Proxy again thats why it has to be removed from the txt file.

The text file portion is actually really easy:

<?php
$proxyArr = file('proxies.txt');
$randProxy = array_rand($proxyArr);
$proxy = $proxyArr[$randProxy];
unset($proxyArr[$randProxy]);

$fh = fopen('proxies.txt', 'w+');
foreach ($proxyArr as $write) 
fwrite($fh, $write);
fclose($fh);

// other code here
echo $proxy;
?>

 

If you are using a database it is actually quite a bit easier then that.

If you want to remove the proxy from the text file, the simplest is probably to read in the entire file, filtering for that proxy server as you go, then writing the entire file again.  Or you can filter while writing instead of while reading.

as the other users already told it is quite risky to use the text file.use a database instead and make a column so that u can make it as 1 once u use it off.

<?
//$url = 'http://www.whatismyip.com/';
$url='http://www.ip-adress.com/what_is_my_ip/';
$cUrl = curl_init();
curl_setopt($cUrl,CURLOPT_VERBOSE,1);
//curl_setopt($cUrl,CURLOPT_HTTPPROXYTUNNEL,true);
curl_setopt($cUrl,CURLOPT_PROXYTYPE,CURLPROXY_HTTP);
curl_setopt($cUrl,CURLOPT_PROXY,'208.43.64.236:808');
curl_setopt($cUrl,CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER,false);
curl_setopt($cUrl,CURLOPT_URL,$url);
curl_setopt($cUrl,CURLOPT_TIMEOUT,320);
$PageContent = curl_exec($cUrl);

curl_close($cUrl);
echo $PageContent;

?>

 

so at the proxy number which i have specified u can use the random one.
