Perl LWP
use strict;
use warnings;
use LWP::UserAgent;
use JSON;
my $host = $ENV{PROXY_HOST} || 't.16yun.cn';
my $port = $ENV{PROXY_PORT} || '31111';
my $user = $ENV{PROXY_USERNAME} || 'user';
my $pass = $ENV{PROXY_PASSWORD} || 'password';
my $tunnel = $ENV{PROXY_TUNNEL} || 'perl-demo';
my $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new(
proxy => {
http => "http://$host:$port",
https => "http://$host:$port",
},
timeout => 15,
ssl_opts => { verify_hostname => 0 },
);
# Proxy Authentication
$ua->credentials("$host:$port", "", $user, $pass);
my $req = HTTP::Request->new(GET => "https://httpbin.org/ip");
$req->header("Proxy-Tunnel" => $tunnel);
my $resp = $ua->request($req);
if ($resp->is_success) {
print $resp->decoded_content, "\n";
} else {
print "Error: ", $resp->status_line, "\n";
}Four Scenarios
| Scenario | LWP Implementation |
|---|---|
| A: Force Switch | Create new LWP::UserAgent each time |
| B: Keep IP | Reuse $ua instance |
| C-HTTP:Proxy-Tunnel | $req->header("Proxy-Tunnel", ...) |
| C-HTTPS: Proxy-Tunnel | Does not support CONNECT custom headers |
Perl's
LWP::UserAgentconfigures proxies via theproxyparameter and handles authentication via thecredentialsmethod. HTTPS Proxy-Tunnel cannot inject custom headers during CONNECT.
