proxykit-go

Fast, allocation-aware Go tools for HTTP and SOCKS proxies.

Validate · Parse · Iterate

Install · Packages · Proxy · Parser · Pool

Note

Parsers and pools are safe for concurrent use. Caller-owned destinations and buffers require separate ownership.

Install

go get github.com/colduction/proxykit-go@latest

Tip

Requires Go 1.26 or later.

Packages

Package	Purpose
proxykit	Proxy model, URL export, validation
proxyparser	Compiled custom-format parser
proxypool	Concurrent iteration over newline-delimited proxy files

Proxy

package main
import (
"fmt""github.com/colduction/proxykit-go"
)
funcmain() {
proxy:= proxykit.Proxy{
Scheme: proxykit.HTTP,
Host: "proxy.example.com:8080",
Username: "user",
Password: "pass",
}
ifproxy.IsValid() {
fmt.Println(proxy.ExportURL())
}
}

Supported schemes: http, https, socks5, socks5h.

Important

Use host:port for DNS/IPv4 and [ipv6]:port for IPv6.

Host validation accepts ASCII DNS names, IPv4, and IPv6. DNS labels follow LDH rules, with 63-byte labels and DNS presentation-length limits. Root-dot names and IPv6 zone IDs are supported.

Helpers include IsValidScheme, IsValidHost, IsValidHostnamePort, IsValidCredentials, and SplitHostnamePort.

Parser

Compile once, reuse across goroutines:

parser, err:=proxyparser.New("%t://%u:%p@%h:%d", true)
iferr!=nil {
returnerr
}
varproxy proxykit.Proxyiferr:=parser.ParseInto(
"socks5://user:pass@proxy.example.com:1080",
&proxy,
); err!=nil {
returnerr
}

Supported verbs:

Verb	Field
%t	Scheme
%h	Host
%d	Port
%u	Username
%p	Password
%%	Literal %

strict=true requires an exact format match. Lenient mode tolerates missing optional credentials or ports after parsing scheme and host. Use ParseString for a value result, ParseInto for caller-owned reuse, and ParseBytes for zero-copy input.

Warning

ParseBytes aliases its input. Keep input immutable while parsed fields remain in use; concurrent calls need distinct destinations.

Use errors.Is for sentinels such as ErrInvalidProxyFormat, and errors.As/errors.AsType for typed parse errors.

Pool

Pool reads one proxy per line, omitting LF and an optional preceding CR.

pool, err:=proxypool.New("proxies.txt", proxypool.ModeSequential, false)
iferr!=nil {
returnerr
}
deferpool.Close()
for {
line, err:=pool.Next()
iferrors.Is(err, io.EOF) {
break
}
iferr!=nil {
returnerr
}
consume(line)
}

Mode	Behavior
ModeSequential	File order, bounded bufio.Reader
ModeShuffled	Locality-preserving region/block/line permutation

Shuffled mode uses bounded working memory and no sidecar index. It opens in constant time and loads blocks lazily. Order is not a uniform global line permutation. MaxLineBytes bounds returned line size; oversized lines return ErrLineTooLong.

Caution

Source files must remain immutable while a pool is open.

Reuse caller storage with NextBytes:

buf:=make([]byte, 0, 128)
for {
varerrerrorbuf, err=pool.NextBytes(buf[:0])
iferrors.Is(err, io.EOF) {
break
}
iferr!=nil {
returnerr
}
consume(buf)
}

Configure shuffled pools with Open:

pool, err:=proxypool.Open("proxies.txt", proxypool.Options{
Mode: proxypool.ModeShuffled,
Reuse: true,
BlockBytes: 4<<20,
RegionBytes: 1<<30,
MaxLineBytes: 64<<10,
Seed: 12345,
})

Stats reports file size, blocks, regions, cursor, cycle, seed, retained capacity, limits, shard configuration, and closed state. Reset restores cycle zero and clears terminal read errors after source validation. Size and modification-time checks run at bounded checkpoints. Non-EOF errors remain terminal until Reset succeeds.

For parallel storage reads, use pools with matching source, BlockBytes, RegionBytes, nonzero Seed, and ShardCount, assigning each ShardIndex in [0, ShardCount). Shards collectively return every line once. Reuse cannot be combined with sharding.
