Using HTTP Proxies in Go (net/http)
Go net/http proxy setup for production collectors—Transport, ProxyURL, timeouts, and Proxy Grove Unlimited endpoints from $2/IP/day.
Go HTTP proxies are usually configured with http.Transport.Proxy pointing at your Proxy Grove URL. Set timeouts and limit idle conns so workers do not leak sockets.
Proxy Grove Unlimited (live pricing): Residential/Corporate from $2/IP/day, Mobile from $4.50/IP/day; 1/7/30/90 days; HTTP+SOCKS5; sticky or rotating; fair-use unlimited traffic on the plan.
Pair with auth setup and success-rate tips. Buy HTTP/HTTPS on Unlimited plans.
