What is HTTPX?

HTTPX provides both synchronous and asynchronous APIs, making it a versatile choice for handling HTTP requests, managing sessions, and working with proxies, authentication, and streaming data. When combined with Toolip, it enables efficient and reliable request execution. Prefer an enterprise-grade guide? Learn more about Oculus Proxies Httpx Integration Guide.
Targeting search engines like Google, Bing, or Yandex requires a specialized proxy to ensure stable access and avoid blocks. Toolip’s Search Engine ISP Proxies are designed specifically for this, providing reliable performance where standard proxies may fail. If your proxy test isn’t working on search engines, switching to Search Engine ISP Proxies can resolve the issue.
1

Install Python

Make sure that Python is installed on your machine.
2

Install HTTPX

  • Execute the following to install HTTPX:
pip install httpx
  • To add support for SOCKS proxies, install it using the command below:
pip install httpx[socks]
3

Basic Request

Copy the code below to set up HTTPX with Toolip, ensuring you include the authentication credentials:
  • username - Your proxy’s username.
  • password - Your proxy’s password.
  • Basic request shouldn’t require Host and Port.
Python
import httpx

# Define the destination website
url = "https://httpbin.org/basic-auth/user/pass"

# Define authentication credentials
auth = ("username", "password")

# Make the request with authentication
response = httpx.get(url, auth=auth)

# Print the response
print(response.status_code)
print(response.text)
4

Sending SOCKS5 Request

Use the example below to send a SOCKS5 request with HTTPX:
  • username - Your proxy’s username.
  • password - Your proxy’s password.
  • host - Your proxy’s host.
  • port - Your proxy’s port.
Python
import httpx

# SOCKS5 proxy with authentication
proxies = {
"http://": "socks5://username:password@host:port",
"https://": "socks5://username:password@host:port",
}

# Make a request through the SOCKS5 proxy
response = httpx.get("https://httpbin.org/ip", proxies=proxies)

# Print the response
print(response.text)
5

Sending Asynchronous Request

Check the following example to perform an asynchronous request using HTTPX:
Python
import httpx
import asyncio

async def fetch():
async with httpx.AsyncClient() as client:
    response = await client.get("https://httpbin.org/basic-auth/user/pass", auth=("username", "password"))
    print(response.text)

# Run the async function
asyncio.run(fetch())
