Sessions

A session has its own cache, cookie jar, and redirect history.

>>> from dogbutler import Session
>>> s = Session()
>>> r = s.get('http://www.google.com', headers={'a': 'antelope'}, cookies={'a': 'apple'})
>>> r.status_code
200
>>> r.content

Async

Note: Only GET requests can be called asynchronously at the moment.

Each request is a tuple of (url, kwargs), where kwargs can contain optional arguments such as headers and cookies.

>>> from dogbutler import async
>>> request1 = ('http://www.google.com', {'headers': {'a': 'antelope'}, 'cookies': {'a': 'apple'}})
>>> request2 = ('http://www.apple.com', {'headers': {'b': 'bear'}, 'cookies': {'b': 'banana'}})
>>> response1, response2 = async.get([request1, request2])
>>> response1.status_code
200
>>> response2.status_code
200
