axios-socks5-agent

npm i axios-socks5-agent

wrap for socks5-http-client and socks5-https-client. I wrote this because there is no module support socks5 for axios and allow modifying agentOptions (sth likes keepAlive)

const axios = require('axios')
const SocksAgent = require('axios-socks5-agent')

const { httpAgent, httpsAgent } = SocksAgent({
  agentOptions: {
    keepAlive: true,
  },
  // socks5
  host: '127.0.0.1',
  port: 9050,
  // socks5 auth
  username: 'admin',
  password: 'pass1234',
})

axios
  .get('http://wtfismyip.com/json', { httpAgent, httpsAgent })
  .then(res => console.log(res.data))
  .catch(e => console.error(e))

Usage

• new Socks5Agent(options) => { httpAgent, httpsAgent }

  • options.host: socks5 host, default 127.0.0.1
  • options.port: socks5 port, default 9050
  • options.agentOptions: https.AgentOptions. For more details https://nodejs.org/api/https.html#https_new_agent_options

• httpAgent vs httpsAgent: axios config
