Using proxy IP can significantly improve web crawling efficiency and success rate, especially when facing high-frequency requests or restricted access websites.
Java provides a rich network library that makes it relatively simple to integrate proxy IP for web crawling.
To use proxy IP in Java, you need to set up the proxy server information and create a Proxy object. Then, open the connection and set up the proxy using the HttpURLConnection class.
Alternatively, you can use third-party libraries like Apache HttpClient to simplify code, provide richer functions, and better performance for setting up proxy IP.
