A modern Python HTTP client library with built-in authentication and response handling

Project description

make-api-request

A modern Python HTTP client library with built-in authentication and response handling.

Features

  • 🚀 Modern async/sync support - Built on httpx with full async/await support
  • 🔐 Built-in authentication - Support for API keys, Basic auth, Bearer tokens, and OAuth2
  • 📦 Type-safe - Full type hints with Pydantic models
  • 🔄 Flexible responses - Handle JSON, binary, and streaming responses
  • 🛡️ Error handling - Comprehensive API error handling with detailed context
  • Performance - Efficient request building and response parsing

Installation

pip install make-api-request

Or with Poetry:

poetry add make-api-request

Quick Start

Basic Usage

import asyncio
from make_api_request import AsyncBaseClient

async def main():
    client = AsyncBaseClient("https://api.example.com")
    
    # Simple GET request
    response = await client.get("/users")
    print(response)

asyncio.run(main())

With Authentication

from make_api_request import AsyncBaseClient, AuthBearer

async def main():
    # Bearer token authentication
    auth = AuthBearer("your-token-here")
    client = AsyncBaseClient(
        "https://api.example.com",
        auths={"bearer": auth}
    )
    
    response = await client.get("/protected-endpoint")
    print(response)

asyncio.run(main())

Synchronous Usage

from make_api_request import SyncBaseClient, AuthKey

# API key authentication
auth = AuthKey("x-api-key", "your-api-key")
client = SyncBaseClient(
    "https://api.example.com",
    auths={"api_key": auth}
)

response = client.get("/users")
print(response)

Authentication Types

API Key Authentication

from make_api_request import AuthKey

# Header-based API key
auth = AuthKey("x-api-key", "your-api-key")

# Query parameter API key  
auth = AuthKey("api_key", "your-api-key", location="query")

Bearer Token

from make_api_request import AuthBearer

auth = AuthBearer("your-jwt-token")

Basic Authentication

from make_api_request import AuthBasic

auth = AuthBasic("username", "password")

OAuth2

from make_api_request import OAuth2ClientCredentials

auth = OAuth2ClientCredentials(
    token_url="https://auth.example.com/token",
    client_id="your-client-id",
    client_secret="your-client-secret"
)

Advanced Usage

Custom Request Options

from make_api_request import RequestOptions

options = RequestOptions(
    timeout=30.0,
    headers={"Custom-Header": "value"},
    max_retries=3
)

response = await client.get("/endpoint", options=options)

Binary Responses

# Download a file
binary_response = await client.get("/download/file.pdf")
if isinstance(binary_response, BinaryResponse):
    with open("file.pdf", "wb") as f:
        f.write(binary_response.content)

Streaming Responses

async with client.stream("GET", "/large-dataset") as response:
    async for chunk in response.iter_content():
        process_chunk(chunk)

Error Handling

from make_api_request import ApiError

try:
    response = await client.get("/might-fail")
except ApiError as e:
    print(f"API Error: {e.status_code}")
    print(f"Response body: {e.body}")
    print(f"Full response: {e.response}")
