Requests is the de facto HTTP library for Python—simple, elegant, and human-friendly. It wraps urllib3 to provide intuitive methods for sending HTTP/1.1 requests, handling sessions, cookies, redirects, authentication, proxies, and more.

Features

  • Easy HTTP verbs: get, post, put, delete, etc.
  • Cookie persistence and session management
  • Automatic content decoding and compression handling
  • Support for TLS/SSL verification and proxies
  • Authentication mechanisms (basic and digest)
  • Timeout control and streaming download capability
