A comprehensive HTTP client library, httplib2 supports many features left out of other HTTP libraries.
- HTTP and HTTPS
HTTPS support is only available if the socket module was compiled with SSL support.
- Keep-Alive
Supports HTTP 1.1 Keep-Alive, keeping the socket open and performing multiple requests over the same connection if possible.
- Authentication
The following three types of HTTP Authentication are supported. These can be used over both HTTP and HTTPS.
Digest
Basic
WSSE
- Caching
The module can optionally operate with a private cache that understands the Cache-Control: header and uses both the ETag and Last-Modified cache validators. Both file system and memcached based caches are supported.
- All Methods
The module can handle any HTTP request method, not just GET and POST.
- Redirects
Automatically follows 3XX redirects on GETs.
- Compression
Handles both ‘deflate’ and ‘gzip’ types of compression.
- Lost update support
Automatically adds back ETags into PUT requests to resources we have already cached. This implements Section 3.2 of Detecting the Lost Update Problem Using Unreserved Checkout
- Unit Tested
A large and growing set of unit tests.
