Batch HTTP Request

Overview

The Batch HTTP Request is a Python package designed to handle multiple HTTP requests efficiently. It allows users to send a batch of requests and receive the corresponding responses in a structured format. The library also provides error handling capabilities, returning errors alongside successful responses if desired.

Features

• Send multiple HTTP requests in a single batch.
• Supports various HTTP methods (GET, POST, etc.).
• Handles headers and request bodies.
• Optionally returns errors encountered during request processing.

Installation

To install the library, you can use pip:

pip install batch-http-request

Usage

Classes

Request

The Request class is used to define individual HTTP requests.

• Attributes:

  • url (str): The URL for the request.
  • method (str): The HTTP method (e.g., "GET", "POST").
  • headers (List[Tuple[str, str]]): Optional list of headers.
  • body (Optional[bytes]): Optional request body.

• Constructor:

  Request(url: str, method: str, headers: Optional[List[Tuple[str, str]]] = [], body: Optional[bytes] = None)
  

Response

The Response class represents the HTTP response.

• Attributes:

  • status_code (int): The HTTP status code.
  • headers (List[Tuple[str, str]]): List of response headers.
  • body (bytes): Response body.

• Constructor:

  Response(status_code: int, headers: List[Tuple[str, str]], body: bytes)
  

Function

batch_request

The batch_request function processes a list of Request objects and returns their corresponding Response objects or errors.

• Parameters:

  • requests (List[Request]): A list of Request objects to be processed.
  • return_panic (bool): If set to True, the function returns errors encountered during the request processing as RuntimeError objects. Defaults to False.

• Returns:

  • List[Union[Response, RuntimeError]]: A list containing Response objects for successful requests and RuntimeError objects for failed requests if return_panic is True.

• Example:

  from batch_http_request import Request, batch_request
  
  requests = [
      Request(url="https://api.example.com/data", method="GET"),
      Request(url="https://api.example.com/submit", method="POST", body=b'{"key": "value"}')
  ]
  
  responses = batch_request(requests, return_panic=True)
  
  for response in responses:
      if isinstance(response, Response):
          print(f"Status: {response.status_code}, Body: {response.body}")
      else:
          print(f"Error: {response}")
