hyper-requests 0.0.4

Concurrent request HTTP execution library

Concurrent request HTTP execution library

What is it?

hyper-requests is a Python library that enables multithreading of API calls using asyncio. It takes a list of URLs and a list of parameters as input and then uses the requests library to make these calls asynchronously (https://pypi.org/project/requests/).

Performance

It is hyper fast!

Within the test/performance directory there is a performance test that makes 20 API calls to the random joke generator api: https://official-joke-api.appspot.com/random_joke.

Using hyper requests the time taken to make these calls is ~2 second, using syncronous api calls takes ~16 seconds.
