Top 23 Python Request Projects

Requests

  1. requests

    A simple, yet elegant, HTTP library.

    Project mention: Some secret management belongs in your HTTP proxy | news.ycombinator.com | 2026-04-21

    all languages also seem to have packages around providing cert bundles which get used directly (e.g., certifi [3]), which does cause some pain

  3. requests-html

    Pythonic HTML Parsing for Humans™

  4. MechanicalSoup

    A Python library for automating interaction with websites.

  5. Niquests

    Drop-in replacement for Requests. Automatic HTTP/1.1, HTTP/2, and HTTP/3. WebSocket, and SSE included.

    Project mention: Setting up an e-paper dashboard with OpenDisplay | dev.to | 2026-06-01

    I wanted to avoid having to implement a scheduler that runs the app periodically so the fetching has fairly short timeouts to avoid missing the wake-up window. All requests happen asynchronously to avoid blocking each other using the niquests library.

  6. requests-cache

    Transparent persistent cache for python requests

  7. wreq-python

    An ergonomic Python HTTP Client with TLS fingerprint

    Project mention: Hybrid scraping: The architecture for the modern web | dev.to | 2026-02-25

    Python’s requests package, which uses urllib from the standard library, has a very distinctive TLS fingerprint, containing ciphers (amongst other things) that aren’t seen in a browser. This makes it very easy to spot. Both rnet, and other options such as curl-cffi, are able to send a TLS fingerprint similar to that of a browser. This reduces the chances of our request being blocked.

  8. newspaper4k

    📰 Newspaper4k a fork of the beloved Newspaper3k. Extraction of articles, titles, and metadata from news websites.

  9. hrequests

    🚀 Web scraping for humans

  10. httpdbg

    A tool for Python developers to easily debug the HTTP(S) client and server requests in a Python program.

    Project mention: Show HN: Pytest-httpdbg – a simple way to include HTTP traces in Allure reports | news.ycombinator.com | 2025-11-11

    Hi HN,

    I recently updated my pytest plugin based on httpdbg to include the HTTP traces directly in the Allure reports. As with httpdbg, the idea is to have nothing more to do than to add an argument to your command line: --httpdbg-allure.

    For example:

    pytest examples/pytest_demo.py --alluredir=./allure-results --httpdbg-allure

    For each test, all HTTP requests will be recorded and saved in the Allure report under a step named httpdbg.

    You can check the README in the repository to see how it looks: https://github.com/cle-b/pytest-httpdbg?tab=readme-ov-file#c... (the compact mode is quite simple, but the full mode is identical to the httpdbg UI).

    I hope this will be helpful for some of you :) Any feedback is welcome.

    If you enjoy using httpdbg, don’t hesitate to check out the Git repository to discover new features — and give it a star to help make it more visible.

    httpdbg: https://github.com/cle-b/httpdbg -- https://pypi.org/project/httpdbg/
