(Go) HTTP/HTTPS using SOCKS5 Proxy

Demonstrates how to use HTTP/HTTPS with a SOCKS5 proxy.

Chilkat Go Downloads Go Package for Windows, MacOS, Linux, Alpine Linux, Solaris

    // This example assumes the Chilkat HTTP API to have been previously unlocked.
    // See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    http := chilkat.NewHttp()

    // Using a SOCKS5 proxy is just a matter of setting a few properties.
    // Once these properties are set, all other coding is the same as when
    // the connection is direct to the HTTP server.

    // Set the SocksVersion property = 5 for SOCKS5
    http.SetSocksVersion(5)

    // Set the SocksHostname to the SOCKS proxy domain name or IP address, 
    // which may be IPv4 (dotted notation) or IPv6.
    http.SetSocksHostname("192.168.1.100")

    // The port where the SOCKS5 proxy is listening.
    http.SetSocksPort(1080)

    // If the SOCKS5 proxy itself requires authentication, set the username/password 
    // like this.  (otherwise leave the username/password empty)
    http.SetSocksUsername("myUsername")
    http.SetSocksPassword("myPassword")

    // Now do whatever it is you need to do.  All communications will go through the proxy.
    html := http.QuickGetStr("https://www.google.com/")
    if http.LastMethodSuccess() != true {
        fmt.Println(http.LastErrorText())
        http.DisposeHttp()
        return
    }

    fmt.Println(*html)
    fmt.Println("----")
    fmt.Println("Success!")
