-Proxy Support
+Using Proxies
+
+When you should use a proxy:
+- You're being rate limited when using the **Guest Class**.
+- Ensta is not working because your Home IP is flagged.
+- You're deploying Ensta to the cloud. (Instagram blocks requests from IPs of cloud providers, so a proxy must be used)
```python
from ensta import Host
-host = Host(username, password, proxy={"http": "http://1.2.3.4", "https": "https://1.2.3.4"})
+host = Host(
+ username,
+ password,
+ proxy={
+ "http": "socks5://username:password@host:port",
+ "https": "socks5://username:password@host:port"
+ }
+)
```
+Ensta uses the same proxy settings as the **requests** module.
