Requests is an elegant and simple HTTP library for Python, built with ♥.

 

>>> import requests
>>> r = requests.get('https://api.github.com/user', auth=('user', 'pass'))
>>> r.status_code
200
>>> r.headers['content-type']
'application/json; charset=utf8'
>>> r.encoding
'utf-8'
>>> r.text
'{"type":"User"...'
>>> r.json()
{'disk_usage': 368627, 'private_gists': 484, ...}

 

Requests 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 PUT & POST data — but nowadays, just use the json method!

Requests is the most downloaded Python package today, pulling in around 14M downloads / week— according to GitHub, Requests is currently depended upon by 367_296 repositories. You may certainly put your trust in this code.
