SOCKS5h Proxy Example

Route HTTP client requests through a SOCKS5h proxy with remote DNS resolution. See examples/proxyDemo.zig.

zig

// Client-level proxy (URL form).
var client = httpx.Client.init(allocator, io, .{
    .proxy = "socks5h://127.0.0.1:1080",
});
defer client.deinit();

// Per-request proxy override.
var response = try client.get("http://target.example.com/data", .{
    .proxy = "socks5h://127.0.0.1:1080",
});
defer response.deinit();

socks5h:// delegates hostname resolution to the proxy; socks5:// resolves locally. http:// selects an HTTP forward proxy.

Run

bash

zig build run-proxy-demo

What to Verify

Requests route through the configured proxy.
SOCKS5h performs DNS resolution on the proxy side (remote DNS).
