Ngiri (Warhog) Proxy and HTTP client.

Project description

Ngiri - A next-generation HTTP client for Python.

Test Suite Package version

Ngiri is a fully featured Poxy and HTTP client library for Python 3. It includes an integrated command line client, has support for both HTTP/1.1 and HTTP/2, and provides both sync and async APIs.


Install ngiri using pip:

$ pip install ngiri

Now, let's get started:

>>> import ngiri
>>> r = ngiri.get('https://www.example.org/')
>>> r
<Response [200 OK]>
>>> r.status_code
200
>>> r.headers['content-type']
'text/html; charset=UTF-8'
>>> r.text
'<!doctype html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<title>Example Domain</title>...'

Or, using the command-line client.

$ pip install 'ngiri[cli]'  # The command line client is an optional dependency.

Which now allows us to use ngiri directly from the command-line...

Dependencies

The ngiri project relies on these excellent libraries:

  • httpcore - The underlying transport implementation for ngiri.
    • h11 - HTTP/1.1 support.
  • certifi - SSL certificates.
  • idna - Internationalized domain name support.
  • sniffio - Async library autodetection.

As well as these optional installs:

  • h2 - HTTP/2 support. (Optional, with ngiri[http2])
  • socksio - SOCKS proxy support. (Optional, with ngiri[socks])
  • rich - Rich terminal support. (Optional, with ngiri[cli])
  • click - Command line client support. (Optional, with ngiri[cli])
  • brotli or brotlicffi - Decoding for "brotli" compressed responses. (Optional, with ngiri[brotli])

A huge amount of credit is due to requests for the API layout that much of this work follows, as well as to urllib3 for plenty of design inspiration around the lower-level networking details.
