Description: Requests: HTTP for Humans
=========================
- Most existing Python modules for dealing HTTP requests are insane. I have to look up *everything* that I want to do. Most of my worst Python experiences are a result of the various built-in HTTP libraries (yes, even worse than Logging).
+ Requests is an ISC Licensed HTTP library, written in Python, for human
+ beings.
- But this one's different. This one's going to be awesome. And simple.
+ Most existing Python modules for sending HTTP requests are extremely
+ verbose and cumbersome. Python's builtin urllib2 module provides most of
+ the HTTP capabilities you should need, but the api is thoroughly broken.
+ It requires an enormous amount of work (even method overrides) to
+ perform the simplest of tasks.
+
+ Things shouldn't be this way. Not in Python.
+
+ ::
+
+ >>> r = requests.get('https://api.github.com', auth=('user', 'pass'))
+ >>> r.status_code
+ 204
+ >>> r.headers['content-type']
+ 'application/json'
+ >>> r.content
+ ...
+
+ See `the same code, without Requests <https://gist.github.com/973705>`_.
+
+ Requests allow you to send **HEAD**, **GET**, **POST**, **PUT**,
+ **PATCH**, and **DELETE** HTTP requests. You can add headers, form data,
+ multipart files, and parameters with simple Python dictionaries, and access the
+ response data in the same way. It's powered by urllib2, but it does
+ all the hard work and crazy hacks for you.
- Really simple.

- **Requests:**
-
- All request functions return a Response object (see below).
-
- If a {filename: fileobject} dictionary is passed in (files=...), a multipart_encode upload will be performed.
- If CookieJar object is is passed in (cookies=...), the cookies will be sent with the request.
-
- HEAD Requests
- >>> requests.head(url, params={}, headers={}, cookies=None, auth=None, timeout=None, proxies={})
- <Response [200]>
-
- GET Requests
- >>> requests.get(url, params={}, headers={}, cookies=None, auth=None, timeout=None, proxies={})
- <Response [200]>
-
- POST Requests
- >>> requests.post(url, data={}, headers={}, files={}, cookies=None, auth=None, timeout=None, allow_redirects=False, params{}, proxies={})
- <Response [200]>
-
- PUT Requests
- >>> requests.put(url, data={}, headers={}, files={}, cookies=None, auth=None, timeout=None, allow_redirects=False, params{}, proxies={})

- PATCH Requests
- >>> requests.post(url, data={}, headers={}, files={}, cookies=None, auth=None, timeout=None, allow_redirects=False, params{}, proxies={})

- **Responses:**
-
- Response.status_code
- (Integer) Received HTTP Status Code Response
-
- Response.headers
- ((CaseInsensitive) Dictionary) Received HTTP Response Headers.
-
- Response.content
- (Bytes) Received Content.
-
- Response.history
- (List of Responses) Redirection History.
-
- Response.url
- (String) URL of response. Useful for detecting redirects.
-
- Response.ok
- (Bool) True if no errors occurred during the request, and the status_code is kosher.
-
- Response.cached
- (Bool) True if Response.content is stored within the object.
-
- Response.error
- (HTTPError) If an HTTPError occurred (e.g. status of 404), Otherwise this is None.
-
- Response.raise_for_status()
- Raises HTTPError if a request is not kosher.
-
-
- **HTTP Authentication Registry:**
-
- You can register AuthObjects to automatically enable HTTP Authentication on requests that contain a registered base URL string.
-
- >>> requests.auth_manager.add_auth(url, authobject)
