HTTP/HTTPS using SOCKS5 Proxy

See more HTTP Examples

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

require 'chilkat'

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

http = Chilkat::CkHttp.new()

# 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.put_SocksVersion(5)

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

# The port where the SOCKS5 proxy is listening.
http.put_SocksPort(1080)

# If the SOCKS5 proxy itself requires authentication, set the username/password 
# like this.  (otherwise leave the username/password empty)
http.put_SocksUsername("myUsername")
http.put_SocksPassword("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.get_LastMethodSuccess() != true)
    print http.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
end

print html + "\n";
print "----" + "\n";
print "Success!" + "\n";
