Back to search · Project homepage

Description

Requests is a widely used high-level HTTP library for Python, based on the lower-level urllib3. It allows you to send HTTP/1.1 requests extremely easily. There's no need to manually add query strings to your URLs, or to form-encode your POST data; you can add headers, form data, multipart files, and parameters with simple Python dictionaries, and access the response data in the same way. Features include: - Keep-Alive & Connection Pooling - International Domains and URLs - Sessions with Cookie Persistence - Browser-style SSL Verification - Automatic Content Decoding - HTTP(S) Proxy Support - Multipart File Uploads - Streaming Downloads - Connection Timeouts - Chunked Requests
