Introduction

Fido is a simple, asynchronous HTTP client built on top of Crochet, Twisted and concurrent.futures. It is intended to be used in environments where there is no event loop, and where you cannot afford to spin up lots of threads (otherwise you could just use a ThreadPoolExecutor).

Here is an example of using Fido:

future = fido.fetch('http://www.foo.bar')
# Work happens in a background thread...
response = future.wait(timeout=2)
print response.body

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you support SSL?

Yes, although this has not been vetted by security professionals. One should use this functionality at their own risk. In more detail: Fido uses the Twisted defaults, which delegate to pyOpenSSL and service_identity for the actual SSL work.

Is the API stable?

Probably not. However, it is currently very simple, so it shouldn’t be hard to upgrade code if there’s a non backwards-compatible change.

Do I need to initialize Crochet?

No, crochet.setup is automatically invoked by fido.fetch.

Installation

Fido can be installed using pip install, like so:

$ pip install --upgrade fido
