Top 23 Python HTTP Projects
-
httpie
As easy as /aitch-tee-tee-pie/ 🥧 Modern, user-friendly command-line HTTP client for the API era. JSON support, colors, sessions, downloads, plugins & more. https://twitter.com/httpie
https://github.com/httpie/httpie has stuff like that built in, it's a great tool
-
(Just want to be specific as possible) I have the virtualenv ready, it's also up in github, the .gitignore file for python is there as well, plus, the requests library for interacting with the REST API. That's it.
-
OPS
OPS - Build and Run Open Source Unikernels. Quickly and easily build and deploy open source unikernels in tens of seconds. Deploy in any language to any cloud.
-
mitmproxy
An interactive TLS-capable intercepting HTTP proxy for penetration testers and software developers.
Project mention: QUIC (aka HTTP/3, RFC 900X) is made for tracking! Change my mind! | reddit.com/r/privacy | 2022-01-16 -
The previous load generator tools that I mentioned act as somewhat crude measurements because you're limited to testing a single URL at a time. What should you do if you need to simulate traffic that matches real user usage patterns? Enter Locust. Locust is not a tool that I would reach for casually, but it is super cool and worth knowing about.

Project mention: How to make all https traffic in program go through a specific proxy? | reddit.com/r/learnpython | 2021-12-24
-
Project mention: theHarvest will not run, it just gives me this instead. Does anyone know how to fix this? | reddit.com/r/Pentesting | 2021-12-29
The error calls to a file that has been through multiple recent revisions. The most likely cause is an issue was introduced.

import 'package:dio/dio.dart'; void main() async { BaseOptions options = BaseOptions( baseUrl: "https://httpbin.org", connectTimeout: 3000, receiveTimeout: 3000, ); Dio dio = Dio(options); try { Response resp = await dio.get( "/get", queryParameters: {"search": "dio"}, ); print("Response:"); print("Status:\n${resp.statusCode}"); print("Header:\n${resp.headers}"); print("Data:\n${resp.data}"); } catch (e) { print("Exception: $e"); } }

falcon
The no-nonsense REST API and microservices framework for Python developers, with a focus on reliability, correctness, and performance at scale.
And here's a project that's mostly Python, and optionally uses Cython https://github.com/falconry/falcon
-
HTTP Prompt
An interactive command-line HTTP and API testing client built on top of HTTPie featuring autocomplete, syntax highlighting, and more. https://twitter.com/httpie
-
I like the answers that u/NoDadYouShutUp and u/boutiflet gave. I would say at least understanding a little about web API will help you. Knowing/learning how to test them without a UI is helpful as well. OpenAPI (formerly Swagger) helps to test it and helps understand ease of integration with front-ends and other systems. Flask has a couple OpenAPI package options; but, I prefer FastAPI's and Quart's (related to Flask) myself. Though, using requests or httpx make it fairly easy to test your API as well.
-
gunicorn
gunicorn 'Green Unicorn' is a WSGI HTTP Server for UNIX, fast clients and sleepy applications.

hug
Embrace the APIs of the future. Hug aims to make developing APIs as simple as possible, but no simpler.

Project mention: I just launched a webapp in Python, a JSON pastebin service called WST! | reddit.com/r/Python | 2022-01-15
The entire app is written in Python, specifically in the ASGI webapp library Starlette, which is amazing for writing tiny API services like this. I also used SlowAPI as a rate limiter, just so my server doesn't explode.

> In this case, he initially presumed that the problem would be with Flask, Bottle, and Tornado still honoring a semi-colon as a separator in a uri
Flask (or rather Werkzeug what it's based on) removed implicit semicolon support for URL 13 years ago: https://github.com/pallets/werkzeug/commit/0ea28bbc6f5f05eef...

Let's run our uvicorn server: python -m uvicorn main:app --reload, and use a HTTP client to see what we get from it. I'll be using httpie, but feel free to use curl or any other HTTP client of your choice.

Und um es hier zu implementieren fehlen mir einfach die Skills in pyhton. Und der IssueTracker ist leider auch deaktiviert.

Project mention: Best way to run parallel async http requests | reddit.com/r/learnpython | 2021-08-23
I found examples of running parallel async http requests using grequests, but in its GitHub page it recommends using requests-threads or requests-futures instead. Which of them would be the most straightforward tool for optimizing a sequence of GET requests against an API. Case scenario: API endpoint provides paginated responses. With first response, I get the total of itens, which allow me to prepare all the remaining urls. The API allows for 25 simultaneous requests from a single user session (JWT token).

urllib3
Python HTTP library with thread-safe connection pooling, file post support, user friendly, and more.
Project mention: Open source package urllib3 raised $15,000 in 2021 | reddit.com/r/programming | 2021-12-30Some context on David Lord's entry, he was our first attempt to pay a community member to contribute a PR and get paid for the contribution. Here's the PR we merged and paid him for: https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/pull/2257
-
Now it’s finally the time to discuss our last option. I have only found about it quite recently, frankly. I’ve been using mocks for a long time and always had some problem with them. VCR.py is a library that simplifies a lot the tests that make HTTP requests.

httpretty
