Stop Buying Proxy Lists: Scive Real-Time Proxies with Node.js

typescript dev.to

Are you tired of "free proxy lists" that are 90% dead by the time you download them? Or perhaps you're tired of paying $50/month for rotating proxy services that have strict rate limits?

I just released @dimzxzzx/generator-ip, a specialized Node.js tool that doesn't just give you a list—it hunts for live, working proxies in real-time.

How it's different

Most tools fetch from a database. This tool performs Active Scanning. It generates random public IPs within specific country ranges (CIDR), probes for open proxy ports, and validates them instantly.

Key Features

• Active Discovery: No more outdated lists. If it's in your pool, it's alive.
• Geo-Targeting: Need proxies from Singapore (SG), Indonesia (ID), or the US? Just set the region.

• Multi-Protocol: Supports HTTP, HTTPS, SOCKS4, and SOCKS5.

• Auto-Validation: It measures latency and confirms anonymity before handing the IP to you.

Performance (The Beast Mode)

This module is built for speed but respects your hardware. Whether you are on a high-end VPS or a modest home connection:

• VPS (100+ Mbps): Can discover 300-500 proxies per hour.
• Home Connection: Stable 100-200 proxies per hour with optimized concurrency.

Quick Start
Installation:

npm install -g @dimzxzzx07/generator-ip
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Find a working proxy in seconds:

generator-ip get-one --region SG --timeout 1000
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Run it as a background service:

generator-ip start --concurrency 150 --region US --debug
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Integration Ready

I've included examples in the documentation for almost every stack:

• Express.js (as a Proxy-as-a-Service)
• Python/Java/Kotlin
• Flutter/Dart
• Docker Support (including ulimit optimizations)

Handling ISP Throttling

One unique feature I added is specialized handling for ISP throttling. If you're in a region with strict traffic shaping (like many ISPs in SE Asia), I've included a "Deep Scan" mode and concurrency tuners to keep your connection stable.

I'm looking for contributors and feedback! How are you currently handling proxy rotation in your scrapers? Let's discuss in the comments.
