Description: Requests: HTTP for Humans ========================= .. image:: https://travis-ci.org/kennethreitz/requests.png?branch=master :target: https://travis-ci.org/kennethreitz/requests .. image:: https://pypip.in/d/requests/badge.png :target: https://crate.io/packages/requests/ Requests is an Apache2 Licensed HTTP library, written in Python, for human beings. 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. .. code-block:: pycon >>> r = requests.get('https://api.github.com', auth=('user', 'pass')) >>> r.status_code 204 >>> r.headers['content-type'] 'application/json' >>> r.text ... See `the same code, without Requests `_. Requests allow you to send HTTP/1.1 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 httplib and `urllib3 `_, but it does all the hard work and crazy hacks for you. Features -------- - International Domains and URLs - Keep-Alive & Connection Pooling - Sessions with Cookie Persistence - Browser-style SSL Verification - Basic/Digest Authentication - Elegant Key/Value Cookies - Automatic Decompression - Unicode Response Bodies - Multipart File Uploads - Connection Timeouts - Thread-safety Installation ------------ To install requests, simply: .. code-block:: bash $ pip install requests Or, if you absolutely must: .. code-block:: bash $ easy_install requests But, you really shouldn't do that. Documentation ------------- Documentation is available at http://docs.python-requests.org/. Contribute ---------- #. Check for open issues or open a fresh issue to start a discussion around a feature idea or a bug. There is a Contributor Friendly tag for issues that should be ideal for people who are not very familiar with the codebase yet. #. Fork `the repository`_ on Github to start making your changes to the **master** branch (or branch off of it). #. Write a test which shows that the bug was fixed or that the feature works as expected. #. Send a pull request and bug the maintainer until it gets merged and published. :) Make sure to add yourself to AUTHORS_. .. _`the repository`: http://github.com/kennethreitz/requests .. _AUTHORS: https://github.com/kennethreitz/requests/blob/master/AUTHORS.rst .. :changelog: History ------- 1.2.3 (2013-05-25) ++++++++++++++++++ - Simple packaging fix 1.2.2 (2013-05-23) ++++++++++++++++++ - Simple packaging fix 1.2.1 (2013-05-20) ++++++++++++++++++ - Python 3.3.2 compatibility - Always percent-encode location headers - Fix connection adapter matching to be most-specific first - new argument to the default connection adapter for passing a block argument - prevent a KeyError when there's no link headers 1.2.0 (2013-03-31) ++++++++++++++++++ - Fixed cookies on sessions and on requests - Significantly change how hooks are dispatched - hooks now receive all the arguments specified by the user when making a request so hooks can make a secondary request with the same parameters.
