Proxy Server (HTTP + SOCKS5)

A lightweight proxy server that exposes HTTP and SOCKS5 endpoints using pproxy. It is designed to be simple to run and easy to configure via environment variables.

Features

• HTTP proxy and SOCKS5 proxy in one process
• Optional username/password authentication
• Works well with local networks (prints LAN IPs on startup)

Requirements

• Python 3.9+

Installation

pip install -r requirements.txt

Usage

python proxy_server.py

The server will bind to 0.0.0.0 by default and listen on:

• HTTP: 8080
• SOCKS5: 1080

Configuration

Set environment variables to customize behavior:

Variable	Description	Default
LISTEN_HOST	Interface to bind	0.0.0.0
HTTP_PORT	HTTP proxy port	8080
SOCKS_PORT	SOCKS5 proxy port	1080
PROXY_USER	Username for auth	(none)
PROXY_PASS	Password for auth	(none)

Example

set LISTEN_HOST=0.0.0.0
set HTTP_PORT=8080
set SOCKS_PORT=1080
set PROXY_USER=myuser
set PROXY_PASS=secret
python proxy_server.py

Notes

• If you set PROXY_USER, you must also set PROXY_PASS (and vice versa).
• The server prints local LAN IPs that can be used by other devices on your network.
