+Name: urllib3
+Version: 1.2.2
+Summary: HTTP library with thread-safe connection pooling, file post, and more.
+Home-page: http://urllib3.readthedocs.org/

+Description: Highlights
+ ==========
+
+ - Re-use the same socket connection for multiple requests
+ (``HTTPConnectionPool`` and ``HTTPSConnectionPool``)
+ (with optional client-side certificate verification).
+ - File posting (``encode_multipart_formdata``).
+ - Built-in redirection and retries (optional).
+ - Supports gzip and deflate decoding.
+ - Thread-safe and sanity-safe.
+ - Tested on Python 2.6+ and Python 3.2+, 99% unit test coverage.
+ - Small and easy to understand codebase perfect for extending and building upon.
+ For a more comprehensive solution, have a look at
+ `Requests <http://python-requests.org/>`_ which is also powered by urllib3.
+
+ What's wrong with urllib and urllib2?
+ =====================================
+
+ There are two critical features missing from the Python standard library:
+ Connection re-using/pooling and file posting. It's not terribly hard to
+ implement these yourself, but it's much easier to use a module that already
+ did the work for you.
+
+ The Python standard libraries ``urllib`` and ``urllib2`` have little to do
+ with each other. They were designed to be independent and standalone, each
+ solving a different scope of problems, and ``urllib3`` follows in a similar
+ vein.
+
+ Why do I want to reuse connections?
+ ===================================
+
+ Performance. When you normally do a urllib call, a separate socket
+ connection is created with each request. By reusing existing sockets
+ (supported since HTTP 1.1), the requests will take up less resources on the
+ server's end, and also provide a faster response time at the client's end.
+ With some simple benchmarks (see `test/benchmark.py
+ <https://github.com/shazow/urllib3/blob/master/test/benchmark.py>`_
+ ), downloading 15 URLs from google.com is about twice as fast when using
+ HTTPConnectionPool (which uses 1 connection) than using plain urllib (which
+ uses 15 connections).
+
+ This library is perfect for:
+
+ - Talking to an API
+ - Crawling a website
+ - Any situation where being able to post files, handle redirection, and
+ retrying is useful. It's relatively lightweight, so it can be used for
+ anything!
+
+ Examples
+ ========
+
+ Go to `urllib3.readthedocs.org <http://urllib3.readthedocs.org>`_
+ for more nice syntax-highlighted examples.
+
+ But, long story short::
+
+ import urllib3
+
+ http = urllib3.PoolManager()
+
+ r = http.request('GET', 'http://google.com/')
+
+ print r.status, r.data
+
+ The ``PoolManager`` will take care of reusing connections for you whenever
+ you request the same host. For more fine-grained control of your connection
+ pools, you should look at
+ `ConnectionPool <http://urllib3.readthedocs.org/#connectionpool>`_.
+
+
+ Run the tests
+ =============
+
+ We use some external dependencies to run the urllib3 test suite. Easiest way to
+ run the tests is thusly from the urllib3 source root: ::
+
+ $ pip install -r test-requirements.txt
+ $ nosetests
+ .....................................................
+
+ Success! You could also ``pip install coverage`` to get code coverage reporting.
+
+
+ Contributing
+ ============
+
+ #. `Check for open issues <https://github.com/shazow/urllib3/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 `urllib3 repository on Github <https://github.com/shazow/urllib3>`_
+ to start making your changes.
+ #. 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.

+
+ Changes
+ =======
+
+
+ 1.2.2 (2012-02-06)
+ ++++++++++++++++++
+
+ * Fixed packaging bug of not shipping ``test-requirements.txt``. (Issue #47)
+
+
+ 1.2.1 (2012-02-05)
+ ++++++++++++++++++
+
+ * Fixed another bug related to when ``ssl`` module is not available. (Issue #41)
+
+ * Location parsing errors now raise ``urllib3.exceptions.LocationParseError``
+ which inherits from ``ValueError``.
+
+
+ 1.2 (2012-01-29)
+ ++++++++++++++++
+
+ * Added Python 3 support (tested on 3.2.2)
+
+ * Dropped Python 2.5 support (tested on 2.6.7, 2.7.2)
+
+ * Use ``select.poll`` instead of ``select.select`` for platforms that support
+ it.
+
+ * Use ``Queue.LifoQueue`` instead of ``Queue.Queue`` for more aggressive
+ connection reusing. Configurable by overriding ``ConnectionPool.QueueCls``.
+
+ * Fixed ``ImportError`` during install when ``ssl`` module is not available.
+ (Issue #41)
+
+ * Fixed ``PoolManager`` redirects between schemes (such as HTTP -> HTTPS) not
+ completing properly. (Issue #28, uncovered by Issue #10 in v1.1)
+
+ * Ported ``dummyserver`` to use ``tornado`` instead of ``webob`` +
+ ``eventlet``. Removed extraneous unsupported dummyserver testing backends.
+ Added socket-level tests.
+
+ * More tests. Achievement Unlocked: 99% Coverage.
+
+
+ 1.1 (2012-01-07)
+ ++++++++++++++++
+
+ * Refactored ``dummyserver`` to its own root namespace module (used for
+ testing).
+
+ * Added hostname verification for ``VerifiedHTTPSConnection`` by vendoring in
+ Py32's ``ssl_match_hostname``. (Issue #25)
+
+ * Fixed cross-host HTTP redirects when using ``PoolManager``. (Issue #10)
+
+ * Fixed ``decode_content`` being ignored when set through ``urlopen``. (Issue
+ #27)
+
+ * Fixed timeout-related bugs. (Issues #17, #23)
+
+
+ 1.0.2 (2011-11-04)
+ ++++++++++++++++++
+
+ * Fixed typo in ``VerifiedHTTPSConnection`` which would only present as a bug if
+ you're using the object manually. (Thanks pyos)
+
+ * Made RecentlyUsedContainer (and consequently PoolManager) more thread-safe by
+ wrapping the access log in a mutex. (Thanks @christer)
+
+ * Made RecentlyUsedContainer more dict-like (corrected ``__delitem__`` and
+ ``__getitem__`` behaviour), with tests. Shouldn't affect core urllib3 code.
+
+
+ 1.0.1 (2011-10-10)
+ ++++++++++++++++++
+
+ * Fixed a bug where the same connection would get returned into the pool twice,
+ causing extraneous "HttpConnectionPool is full" log warnings.
+
+
+ 1.0 (2011-10-08)
+ ++++++++++++++++
+
+ * Added ``PoolManager`` with LRU expiration of connections (tested and
+ documented).
+ * Added ``ProxyManager`` (needs tests, docs, and confirmation that it works
+ with HTTPS proxies).
+ * Added optional partial-read support for responses when
+ ``preload_content=False``. You can now make requests and just read the headers
+ without loading the content.
+ * Made response decoding optional (default on, same as before).
+ * Added optional explicit boundary string for ``encode_multipart_formdata``.
+ * Convenience request methods are now inherited from ``RequestMethods``. Old
+ helpers like ``get_url`` and ``post_url`` should be abandoned in favour of
+ the new ``request(method, url, ...)``.
+ * Refactored code to be even more decoupled, reusable, and extendable.
+ * License header added to ``.py`` files.
+ * Embiggened the documentation: Lots of Sphinx-friendly docstrings in the code
+ and docs in ``docs/`` and on urllib3.readthedocs.org.
+ * Embettered all the things!
+ * Started writing this file.
+
+
+ 0.4.1 (2011-07-17)
+ ++++++++++++++++++
+
+ * Minor bug fixes, code cleanup.
+
+
+ 0.4 (2011-03-01)
+ ++++++++++++++++
+
+ * Better unicode support.
+ * Added ``VerifiedHTTPSConnection``.
+ * Added ``NTLMConnectionPool`` in contrib.
+ * Minor improvements.
+
+
+ 0.3.1 (2010-07-13)
+ ++++++++++++++++++
+
+ * Added ``assert_host_name`` optional parameter. Now compatible with proxies.
+
+
+ 0.3 (2009-12-10)
+ ++++++++++++++++

+
+
+ 0.2 (2008-11-17)
+ ++++++++++++++++
+
+ * Added unit tests.
+ * Bug fixes.
+
+

+ ++++++++++++++++
+
+ * First release.
