Asynchronous HTTP Client/Server for asyncio and Python. AIOHTTP supports both client and server side of HTTP protocol. A long awaited new feature is tracing client request life cycle to figure out when and why client request spends a time waiting for connection establishment, getting server response headers etc. Now it is possible by registering special signal handlers on every request processing stage.

...It has no dependencies except ones which live in the Python standard library. It runs on CPython on Unix and Windows under Python 3.7+. It is also known to run on PyPy 3 (python version 3.7+) on UNIX. It supports HTTP/1.0 and HTTP/1.1. Waitress now validates that chunked encoding extensions are valid, and don't contain invalid characters that are not allowed. They are still skipped/not processed, but if they contain invalid data we no longer continue in and return a 400 Bad Request. This stops potential HTTP desync/HTTP request smuggling.

Uvicorn is an ASGI web server implementation for Python. Until recently Python has lacked a minimal low-level server/application interface for async frameworks. The ASGI specification fills this gap, and means we're now able to start building a common set of tooling usable across all async frameworks. Uvicorn currently supports HTTP/1.1 and WebSockets.

requests-cache is a persistent HTTP cache that provides an easy way to get better performance with the Python requests library. Keep using the requests library you’re already familiar with. Add caching with a drop-in replacement for requests. The session, or install globally to add transparent caching to all request functions. Get sub-millisecond response times for cached responses.

This is a proof of concept for CVE-2021-31166 ("HTTP Protocol Stack Remote Code Execution Vulnerability"), a use-after-free dereference in http.sys patched by Microsoft in May 2021. The bug itself happens in http!UlpParseContentCoding where the function has a local LIST_ENTRY and appends an item to it. When it's done, it moves it into the Request structure; but it doesn't NULL out the local list.

Poor Http Server is standalone wsgi server, which is designed for using python web applications. Unlike other projects, this is not framework, but single server, light wsgi connector, and python doc generator.

A set of libraries and utilities allowing Python programmers to write servlet-like HTTP request handlers, with transparent session management and other facilities.
