NAME
LWP::Protocol::socks - adds support for the socks protocol and proxy facility
SYNOPSIS
use LWP::Protocol::socks;
DESCRIPTION
Use this package when you wish to use a socks proxy for your connections. It provides some essential hooks into the LWP system to implement a socks "scheme" similar to http for describing your socks connection, and can be used to proxy either http or https connections. The use case is to use LWP::UserAgent's proxy method to register your socks proxy like so: $ua->proxy([qw(http https)] => 'socks://socks.yahoo.com:1080'); Then just use your $ua object as usual!
EXAMPLES
#!/usr/local/bin/perl use strict; use LWP::UserAgent; my $ua = new LWP::UserAgent(agent => 'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.0.5) Gecko/20060719 Firefox/1.5.0.5'); $ua->proxy([qw(http https)] => 'socks://socks.yahoo.com:1080'); my $response = $ua->get("http://www.freebsd.org"); print $response->code,' ', $response->message," "; my $response = $ua->get("https://www.microsoft.com"); print $response->code,' ', $response->message," ";
