AIOHTTP VS httpx

> AIOHTTP: The Python int constructor is used to parse Content-Lengths and chunk-sizes, so _, +, and - are misinterpreted.

Fun. I believe the fix is incomplete here[1]. Python's int() constructor accepts integers comprised of any unicode numeral, for example, int("٦٦٦") == 666, and "٦٦٦".isdecimal() == True.

aiohttp

If you want speed, I would try to rewrite everything using an asynchronous library like aiohttp.

requests does not support async out-of-the-box, so we will use aiohttp to avoid complications. requests can do the job, and there is no substantial performance difference. But the code is more readable using aiohttp.

I'm using aiohttp to build an API server that sends TCP requests off to a seperate server. The module that sends the TCP requests is synchronous and a black box for my purposes. So my problem is that these requests are blocking the entire API. I need a way to wrap the module requests in an asynchronous coroutine that won't block the rest of the API.

aiohttp - Everything that I need and nothing that I don't.

Use aiohttp to download the content of each page of lists. As of this Code Review post, this is the only step we execute.

Reminds me of this post from 5 months ago, but it was for a Python library. I made a discussion thread on the aiohttp repo and someone ended up contacting the reddit admins about it. The problem seems to be resolved now.

For reference, it's a butterfly, not a moth.

Very cool, first I'm hearing of httpx https://www.python-httpx.org/

I think most people would start with trying out requests or something for this kind of work, I'm guessing that didn't work out? You've got a star from me.

To access 10 different commands at the same time, that is tricky but definitely doable.

First thing that comes to mind, you can use aliases.

To keep it simple, lets use 3 examples instead of 10: harlequin (this project), pgcli (https://www.pgcli.com/) and httpx (https://www.python-httpx.org/)

Setup a main home for all your venvs:

    cd ~

There are already some implementations for Python HTTP clients. One of them is aiometer. But it's not suitable for my use case. Since httpx already has the internal pool, it would be better to reuse the design.

Besides, flama also provides support for SQL databases via SQLAlchemy, an SQL toolkit and Object Relational Mapper that gives application developers the full power and flexibility of SQL. Finally, flama also provides support for HTTP clients to perform requests via httpx, a next generation HTTP client for Python.

We can use the async HTTP client provided by httpx, a fully featured HTTP client for Python with an API broadly compatible with requests, so it can be used in pretty much the same way in most cases.

httpx in place of requests library

The main value of Requests is that it provided an abstract interface on top of HTTP, which was designed well-enough to become a standard. But today it has fallen way behind in its field, and there are much better alternatives such as HTTPX [0].

HTTPX is a popular Python library that provides an asynchronous HTTP client, and it can be beneficial for enabling async support in Django. While Django itself does not require HTTPX for async support, using HTTPX in combination with Django's async views can bring several advantages:

The underlying library for both sync and async is httpx (https://www.python-httpx.org/) which may be limited from the HTTP Client perspective but it may be possible to add rate limiting at a Session level.
