# Node.js

**This document explains how to use the axios library in Node.js to make HTTPS requests through the YumiProxy proxy service and retrieve response data from [ipinfo.io](http://ipinfo.io). Two implementation approaches are provided: the new axios (recommended) using https-proxy-agent, and the simpler syntax for older axios (v0.x).**

### **Method 1: New axios (v1.x+)**

```javascript yumiproxy_demo.js lines theme={null}
import axios from "axios";
import { HttpsProxyAgent } from "https-proxy-agent";

// ==================== Proxy Configuration (Replace with your actual credentials) ====================
const username = "YOUR_USERNAME";    // Replace with the username from YumiProxy dashboard
const password = "YOUR_PASSWORD";    // Replace with the password from YumiProxy dashboard
const proxyHost = "proxy.yumiproxy.com";
const proxyPort = 9091;

// Build the proxy URL (format: protocol://username:password@host:port)
const proxyUrl = `http://${username}:${password}@${proxyHost}:${proxyPort}`;

// Create an HTTPS proxy agent
const agent = new HttpsProxyAgent(proxyUrl);

// Send the request, specifying the proxy via httpsAgent
axios
  .get("https://ipinfo.io/json", {
    httpsAgent: agent,   // Use the proxy agent
    timeout: 30000,      // Timeout in milliseconds
  })
  .then((response) => {
    console.log(response.data);
  })
  .catch((error) => {
    console.error("Request failed:", error.message);
  });
```

### **Method 2: Legacy axios (v0.x)**

```javascript yumiproxy_demo.js lines theme={null}
import axios from "axios";

// ==================== Proxy Configuration (Replace with your actual credentials) ====================
const username = "YOUR_USERNAME";    // Replace with the username from YumiProxy dashboard
const password = "YOUR_PASSWORD";    // Replace with the password from YumiProxy dashboard

// Older axios (v0.x) supports the proxy option directly in request config
// Note: axios v1.x+ has removed this option; please use the first approach (HttpsProxyAgent)
axios
  .get("https://ipinfo.io/json", {
    proxy: {
      protocol: "http",                // Proxy protocol (fixed to http because CONNECT tunnel uses http)
      host: "proxy.yumiproxy.com",    // Replace with the proxy server host from the dashboard
      port: 9091,                     // Replace with the port from the dashboard
      auth: {
        username: username,           // Proxy authentication username
        password: password,           // Proxy authentication password
      },
    },
    timeout: 30000,                   // Timeout in milliseconds; adjust as needed
  })
  .then((response) => {
    console.log(response.data);       // Output response JSON
  })
  .catch((error) => {
    console.error("Request failed:", error.message);
  });
```
