Proxy for ProxyDroid

The first thing you need to do to use a proxy in your browser is to make the necessary settings. In Google Chrome browser, go to "Network" and then find and click on "Change proxy settings". In the "Internet properties" window that opens, go to "Connection" and click on the "Network settings" button at the bottom. When a new window opens, check the "Use proxy server for local connections" box and the "Do not use proxy server for local addresses" box. Enter the proxy port and IP address in the corresponding fields, close the window and click "OK".

Flipping a page (or navigating to the next/previous page) using Selenium involves interacting with the browser's navigation controls. You can use the WebDriver methods provided by Selenium to navigate between pages. Here are examples in Python using Selenium

1. Navigate to the Next Page:

from selenium import webdriver

# Create a WebDriver instance (e.g., Chrome)
driver = webdriver.Chrome()

# Navigate to the initial page
driver.get("https://example.com/page1")

# Perform actions on the first page...

# Navigate to the next page
driver.find_element_by_link_text("Next").click()  # Replace with the actual locator for the "Next" link

# Perform actions on the second page...

# Close the browser when done
driver.quit()

2. Navigate to the Previous Page:

from selenium import webdriver

# Create a WebDriver instance (e.g., Chrome)
driver = webdriver.Chrome()

# Navigate to the second page
driver.get("https://example.com/page2")

# Perform actions on the second page...

# Navigate to the previous page
driver.back()

# Perform actions on the first page...

# Close the browser when done
driver.quit()

3. Navigate to a Specific Page:

from selenium import webdriver

# Create a WebDriver instance (e.g., Chrome)
driver = webdriver.Chrome()

# Navigate to a specific page
driver.get("https://example.com/page3")

# Perform actions on the third page...

# Close the browser when done
driver.quit()

Replace the placeholder URLs and locators with the actual URLs and locators for your specific use case. The click() method is used to simulate clicking on a link or button that leads to the next page.

If you're navigating between pages that are part of a sequence (e.g., Next/Previous buttons), locate the appropriate elements using Selenium's methods (find_element_by_id, find_element_by_xpath, find_element_by_link_text, etc.) and perform the necessary actions.

Remember that the order of actions in your script should match the sequence of interactions on the pages you are navigating. Also, consider using explicit waits (WebDriverWait) to ensure that the elements on the new page are fully loaded before interacting with them.

To transfer requests session from Requests to Selenium, you can follow these steps:

First, import the necessary libraries:

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
from requests.sessions import Session

Create a new requests session and perform your requests:

req_session = Session()
response = req_session.get('https://example.com')

Now, create a new Selenium WebDriver instance and pass the requests session as a parameter:

driver = webdriver.Chrome()
driver.get('https://example.com')
req_session_cookies = req_session.cookies.get_dict()
driver.add_cookies(list(req_session_cookies.values()))

Use Selenium to interact with the web page:

search_box = WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(EC.visibility_of_element_located((By.ID, 'search-box')))
search_box.send_keys('your search query')
search_box.send_keys(Keys.RETURN)

To continue using the same session for subsequent requests, you can create a new requests session with the cookies from the Selenium driver:

selenium_session_cookies = driver.get_cookies()
new_req_session = Session()
for cookie in selenium_session_cookies:
    new_req_session.cookies.set(cookie['name'], cookie['value'])

Now you can use the new_req_session to make new requests while maintaining the same session as the Selenium driver.

Remember to close the Selenium driver after you're done:

driver.quit()

To connect to the Internet via a proxy server, you need to configure your browser or operating system to use the proxy server. Here's a general guide for setting up a proxy server using a web browser:

1. Open your web browser.

2. Access the browser settings or preferences:
- On Windows: Click the three-dot menu in the top-right corner and select "Settings."
- On macOS: Click the Apple menu in the top-left corner, select "System Preferences," and click "Network."
- On Linux: Click the menu button in the top-right corner, select "Settings," and click "Network."
- On Android: Open the "Settings" app and tap "Network & internet."
- On iOS: Open the "Settings" app and tap "Wi-Fi."

3. Locate the proxy settings:
- On Windows: Under "Network," click "Proxy settings."
- On macOS: Click the "Advanced" button and go to the "Proxies" tab.
- On Linux: Click the "+" button to add a new proxy.
- On Android: Tap "Private DNS" and "Static IP address" under "Advanced options."
- On iOS: Tap "Configure Proxy" under the active Wi-Fi network.

4. Enter the proxy server address, port, and authentication details (if required):
- Proxy server address: Enter the domain name or IP address of the proxy server (e.g., http://proxy-server).
- Port: Enter the port number used by the proxy server (e.g., 8080).
- Username and Password (optional): If the proxy server requires authentication, enter the username and password provided by the proxy server provider.

5. Save the proxy settings and restart the browser.

Technically, the ISP cannot block all VPN servers. But it is possible to block some of them. In this case, you can use any other VPN service. But you have to be careful with "free" ones, as they often make money from collecting and selling users' confidential data.
