This release is a pre-release and may not be stable for production use.

reqrio-py

reqrio-py is the Python binding for reqrio, a lightweight and high-concurrency HTTP request library.

Features

  • High-performance HTTP/HTTPS request engine with low-copy semantics.
  • Built-in TLS support using BoringSSL.
  • Supports HTTP/1.1 and HTTP/2.0 via ALPN.
  • Supports custom headers, cookies, timeouts, proxies, and certificate verification.
  • Supports form data, JSON, text, bytes, and multipart file uploads.
  • Includes a WebSocket client wrapper.

Installation

pip install reqrio

Python 3.9 or newer is required.

Quick Start

import reqrio

session = reqrio.Session(
    headers={
        "User-Agent": "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64)...",
        "Accept": "text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8",
    },
    alpn=reqrio.ALPN.HTTP20,
    verify=True,
)

session.set_timeout(3000, 3000, 3000, 30000)

response = session.get("https://www.example.com")
print(response.statue_code())
print(response.text())

session.close()

API Reference

reqrio.Session

Create a session:

session = reqrio.Session(
    headers=None,
    alpn=reqrio.ALPN.HTTP11,
    verify=True,
    proxy=None,
    key_log=None,
    ja3=None,
    ja4=None,
    client_hello=None,
    random_tls=False,
    custom_tls=None,
    token="",
)

Common methods:

  • session.set_headers(headers: dict)
  • session.add_header(name: str, value: str)
  • session.remove_header(name: str)
  • session.set_timeout(connect, read, write, handle, connect_times=3, handle_times=3)
  • session.set_cookie(cookie: str)
  • session.add_cookie(name: str, value: str)
  • session.get(url, params=None, data=None, json=None, bytes=None, text=None, **kwargs)
  • session.post(url, params=None, data=None, json=None, bytes=None, text=None, **kwargs)
  • session.open_stream(method, url, params=None, data=None, json=None, bytes=None, text=None, **kwargs)
  • session.close()

Helper functions

reqrio also offers shortcut functions for single requests:

resp = reqrio.get(
    "https://www.example.com",
    headers={"User-Agent": "..."},
    params={"q": "test"},
)
print(resp.statue_code())

resp = reqrio.post(
    "https://www.example.com/api",
    headers={"Content-Type": "application/json"},
    json={"key": "value"},
)
print(resp.statue_code())

WebSocket support

from reqrio import WebSocket, WsOpCode

headers = {
    "Origin": "https://example.com",
    "User-Agent": "Mozilla/5.0...",
}

ws = WebSocket(
    "wss://example.com/",
    uri="wss://example.com/api/ws",
    headers=headers,
)
ws.open()

while True:
    frame = ws.read()
    if frame.opcode == WsOpCode.PING:
        ws.write(WsOpCode.PONG, frame.payload)
    else:
        print(frame.payload.decode("utf-8"))

ws.close()

Request Body Types

Supported request bodies:

  • data={...} for form data
  • json={...} for JSON payloads
  • text="..." for plain text
  • bytes=b"..." for raw bytes
  • files=[...] for multipart file upload

File upload example:

files = [
    {
        "path": "./example.txt",
        "field_name": "file",
        "filetype": "text/plain",
    }
]

response = session.post(
    "https://www.example.com/upload",
    data={"name": "test"},
    files=files,
)
print(response.statue_code())

TLS Fingerprinting and Advanced Options

reqrio.Session supports advanced TLS configuration:

  • ja3: JA3 fingerprint string
  • ja4: JA4 fingerprint string
  • client_hello: raw TLS ClientHello bytes
  • random_tls: random TLS fingerprint
  • custom_tls: custom TLS configuration dictionary
  • token: fingerprint authentication token

Additional options:

  • verify=False to disable certificate verification
  • proxy for HTTP/SOCKS proxy support
  • key_log to save TLS key material for debugging

Notes

  • reqrio-py is designed to reuse connections when possible.
  • Be sure to call session.close() to release resources.
