  • requests

  • httplib2

  • urllib3

  • pycurl

  • fido

  • httq

  • async_http

  • webob

  • urlfetch

  • simplefetch

  • httputils

  • tornado

  • ihttp

  • basic_http

  • unirest

  • httpstream

  • http1

  • reqres

  • tinydav

  • ultralite

  • urlgrabber

  • dogbutler

  • pylhttp

  • hyper

  • asynchttp

  • geventhttpclient

  • streaming_httplib2

  • bolacha

  • drest

  • httxlib

  • yieldfrom.http.client

Normal use

Normal usage of anyhttp involves simply using either:

anyhttp.get_text(url) anyhttp.get_binary(url)

anyhttp will look for a capable http clients in sys.modules. The sequence will look like:

app:

import httplib2 # must be first

import your_package

your_package:

import anyhttp

anyhttp:

http = Wrapper(httplib2)

Testing

anyhttp includes tests that verify the supported clients can perform certain http operations, and that test suite allows basic HTTP conformance testing of HTTP features.

It is easy to add a new client to the test suite. The list of supported clients is in the main anyhttp module, and the test suite automatically applies the tests to new clients added.

The automatic support of additional clients is achieved using python package testscenarios with an unmerged patch. This can be installed from https://code.launchpad.net/~jayvdb/testscenarios/0.4-with_scenarios
