Struct GenericProxyConfig

pub struct GenericProxyConfig {
    pub http_url: Option<String>,
    pub https_url: Option<String>,
}

GenericProxyConfig

A generic proxy configuration for standard HTTP/HTTPS proxies.

This configuration allows you to specify separate proxies for HTTP and HTTPS requests, or use the same proxy for both. It’s suitable for most standard proxy services.

Features

• Support for separate HTTP and HTTPS proxies
• Simple configuration with minimal required fields
• Compatible with most proxy services

Example Usage

// Create a proxy configuration with the same proxy for both HTTP and HTTPS
let proxy = GenericProxyConfig::new(
    Some("http://username:password@proxy.example.com:8080".to_string()),
    None
)?;

// Use it with the YouTube Transcript API
let api = YouTubeTranscriptApi::new(
    None,
    Some(Box::new(proxy)),
    None
)?;

Fields

http_url: Option<String>

URL for HTTP proxy (format: “http://[username:password@]host:port”)

https_url: Option<String>

URL for HTTPS proxy (format: “https://[username:password@]host:port”)

Implementations

impl GenericProxyConfig

pub fn new( http_url: Option<String>, https_url: Option<String>, ) -> Result<Self, InvalidProxyConfig>

Creates a new generic proxy configuration.

You can specify different proxies for HTTP and HTTPS requests, or use the same proxy for both by specifying only one. At least one of the proxy URLs must be provided.

Parameters

• http_url - Optional URL for HTTP proxy
• https_url - Optional URL for HTTPS proxy

Returns

• Result<Self, InvalidProxyConfig> - A new proxy configuration or an error

Errors

Returns InvalidProxyConfig if both http_url and https_url are None.

Example

// Configure different proxies for HTTP and HTTPS
let proxy = GenericProxyConfig::new(
    Some("http://user:pass@proxy1.example.com:8080".to_string()),
    Some("http://user:pass@proxy2.example.com:8443".to_string())
)?;

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for GenericProxyConfig

fn clone(&self) -> GenericProxyConfig

Returns a duplicate of the value.

const fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for GenericProxyConfig

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

fn as_any(&self) -> &dyn Any

Type conversion for dynamic dispatch and type identification.

fn prevent_keeping_connections_alive(&self) -> bool

Controls whether HTTP connections should be closed after each request.

fn retries_when_blocked(&self) -> i32
