uncurl-httpx 0.1.3

uncurl for httpx, fork from uncurl-requests

Forked from https://github.com/spulec/uncurl

Changes In This Fork

1. Switched generated client code from requests to httpx.
2. Updated proxy and redirect argument rendering to match httpx semantics.
3. Removed Python 2 compatibility code and standardized on Python 3.
4. Replaced legacy test tooling with pytest and simplified the test suite.
5. Removed unused legacy dependencies such as six, mock, sure, nose, and coverage.
6. Improved code generation safety by using Python-safe literals instead of manual string quoting.
7. Unified cookie parsing so --cookie and Cookie: headers are handled consistently.
8. Omit empty request arguments in generated output to produce cleaner httpx code.

Uncurl - Converting curl requests to httpx

In a nutshell

Uncurl is a library that allows you to convert curl requests into python code that uses httpx. Since the Chrome network inspector has a nifty "Copy as cURL", this tool is useful for recreating browser requests in python.

When you don't pass any arguments to uncurl, it will use whatever is in your clipboard as the curl command.

Example

$ uncurl "curl 'https://pypi.python.org/pypi/uncurl-httpx' -H 'Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate,sdch' -H 'Accept-Language: en-US,en;q=0.8' -H 'User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_8_5) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/33.0.1750.152 Safari/537.36' -H 'Accept: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,image/webp,*/*;q=0.8' -H 'Cache-Control: max-age=0' -H 'Cookie: foo=bar;' -H 'Connection: keep-alive' --compressed"
httpx.get("https://pypi.python.org/pypi/uncurl-httpx", headers={
    "Accept-Encoding": "gzip,deflate,sdch",
    "Accept-Language": "en-US,en;q=0.8",
    "User-Agent": "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_8_5) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/33.0.1750.152 Safari/537.36",
    "Accept": "text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,image/webp,*/*;q=0.8",
    "Cache-Control": "max-age=0",
    "Connection": "keep-alive",
}, cookies={
    "foo": "bar",
})

The underlying API:

import uncurl

parsed = uncurl.parse(
    "curl 'https://pypi.python.org/pypi/uncurl-httpx' -H 'Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate,sdch'"
)
print(parsed.headers)

如果你想直接发起请求，也可以调用：

import uncurl

response = uncurl.request(
    "curl 'https://pypi.python.org/pypi/uncurl-httpx' -H 'Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate,sdch'",
    timeout=5.0,
)
print(response.status_code)

If you want the generated httpx code string, ask explicitly:

import uncurl

print(
    uncurl.parse(
        "curl 'https://pypi.python.org/pypi/uncurl-httpx' -H 'Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate,sdch'",
        as_object=False,
    )
)

This prints:

httpx.get("https://pypi.python.org/pypi/uncurl-httpx", headers={
    "Accept-Encoding": "gzip,deflate,sdch",
})

You can also retrieve the components as python objects:

import uncurl

context = uncurl.parse_context(
    "curl 'https://pypi.python.org/pypi/uncurl-httpx' -H 'Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate,sdch'"
)
print(context.url)
print(context.headers)

parse() already returns a mutable object by default, so you can tweak and send it directly:

import uncurl

parsed = uncurl.parse(
    "curl 'https://pypi.python.org/pypi/uncurl-httpx' -H 'Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate,sdch'"
)
parsed.url = "https://example.com/api"
parsed.headers["X-Debug"] = "1"

response = parsed.request(timeout=5.0)
print(response.status_code)

On Mac OS, you can also pipe input to uncurl:

pbpaste | uncurl

Install

$ pip install uncurl-httpx

Release to PyPI with GitHub Actions

This repository includes .github/workflows/publish.yml for automated releases. However, if GitHub Actions is disabled on your account, you can publish manually.

Manual Release to PyPI

Create a local .env file at the project root:

PYPI_TOKEN=pypi-your-token-from-pypi-org

Then run:

make publish

Or directly:

uv run python scripts/publish.py

The script will:

1. Run tests
2. Build distributions
3. Check with twine
4. Upload to PyPI

After upload completes, the new version will appear on PyPI.

Automated Release with GitHub Actions

This repository includes .github/workflows/publish.yml. Pushing a tag like v0.1.1 will:

1. run the test suite,
2. build the package,
3. validate the built artifacts with twine check,
4. publish to PyPI.

Before using it, configure a PyPI Trusted Publisher for this GitHub repository and workflow.

Create and push a release tag with:

git tag v0.1.1
git push origin v0.1.1
