How to use proxy in php curl

I have a curl function:

function curl($url, $referer, $type=null){
    $agent = ($type != null && $type = 'movil') ? 'Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; U; Android 4.0; en-us; GT-I9300 Build/IMM76D) AppleWebKit/534.30 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0 Mobile Safari/534.30' : 'Mozilla/5.0(Windows;U;WindowsNT5.0;en-US;rv:1.4)Gecko/20030624Netscape/7.1(ax)';
    $ch = curl_init($url);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, $agent);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 10);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_REFERER, $referer);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);
    $page = curl_exec($ch);
    curl_close($ch);
    return $page;
}

But this function displays my server ip on request so would be great to know any way to use it via proxy ip and port.Thankyou

If the purpose is to hide the source IP (request originating server's IP), then with curl it is not possible as it is a low-level operation which requires manipulation of raw socket connections.

If you are looking to use proxy while making a request to some URL, then you have to use "CURLOPT_PROXY".

function curl($url, $referer, $type=null){
    $agent = ($type != null && $type = 'movil') ? 'Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; U; Android 4.0; en-us; GT-I9300 Build/IMM76D) AppleWebKit/534.30 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0 Mobile Safari/534.30' : 'Mozilla/5.0(Windows;U;WindowsNT5.0;en-US;rv:1.4)Gecko/20030624Netscape/7.1(ax)';
    $ch = curl_init($url);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, $agent);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_PROXY, '8.8.8.8'); // replace 
8.8.8.8' with proxy server's IP.
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_PROXYPORT, '2211'); // replace '2211' with Proxy server's port.
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 10);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_REFERER, $referer);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);
    $page = curl_exec($ch);
    curl_close($ch);
    return $page;
}
