The Python Dugong module provides an API for communicating with HTTP 1.1
|
|
servers. It is an alternative to the standard library's http.client (formerly
|
|
httplib) module. In contrast to http.client, Dugong:
|
|
|
|
* allows you to send multiple requests right after each other without having to
|
|
read the responses first.
|
|
* supports waiting for 100-continue before sending the request body.
|
|
* raises an exception instead of silently delivering partial data if the
|
|
connection is closed before all data has been received.
|
|
* raises one specific exception (ConnectionClosed) if the connection has been
|
|
closed (while http.client connection may raise any of BrokenPipeError,
|
|
BadStatusLine, ConnectionAbortedError, ConnectionResetError, IncompleteRead
|
|
or simply return '' on read)
|
|
* supports non-blocking, asynchronous operation and is compatible with the
|
|
asyncio module.
|
|
* can in most cases distinguish between an unavailable DNS server and an
|
|
unresolvable hostname.
|
|
* is not compatible with old HTTP 0.9 or 1.0 servers.
|
|
|
|
All request and response headers are represented as str, but must be encodable
|
|
in latin1. Request and response body must be bytes-like objects or binary
|
|
streams.
