Python wrapper for Chromium's http library

Project description

python-cronet

python-cronet is a library to use Chromium's network stack from Python.

The library is currently in alpha stage.

What is Cronet

Cronet is the networking stack of Chromium put into a library for use on Android. It offers an easy-to-use, high performance, standards-compliant, and secure way to perform HTTP requests.

The Chromium team also provides a native version of the library(not officially supported) which allows you to use it in desktop/server operating systems like Linux, macOS and Windows.

The main benefits of using cronet as an HTTP client are:

  • You get to use the same high quality code that runs on Chromium.
  • Support for the latest protocols like QUIC and compression formats.
  • Concurrency support by performing asynchronous requests.
  • Has the same TLS fingerprint as Chrome, meaning that Cloudflare and other bot detection systems can't block your requests based on it.
  • It's much more lightweight on system resources compared to headless Chrome(although it doesn't support executing javascript).

Installation

For the time being the only supported platform is linux-x86-64. The plan is to also support windows and macOS.

pip install python-cronet

Example usage

The library provides an asynchronous API:

import asyncio
import cronet

async def main():
    with cronet.Cronet() as cr:
        response = await cr.get("https://example.com")
        print(response.url, response.status_code)

asyncio.run(main())
