HTTP library with thread-safe connection pooling, file post, and more.
Project description
urllib3 is a powerful, user-friendly HTTP client for Python. Much of the Python ecosystem already uses urllib3 and you should too. urllib3 brings many critical features that are missing from the Python standard libraries:
Thread safety.
Connection pooling.
Client-side SSL/TLS verification.
File uploads with multipart encoding.
Helpers for retrying requests and dealing with HTTP redirects.
Support for gzip, deflate, and brotli encoding.
Proxy support for HTTP and SOCKS.
100% test coverage.
urllib3 is powerful and easy to use:
>>> import urllib3
>>> http = urllib3.PoolManager()
>>> r = http.request('GET', 'http://httpbin.org/robots.txt')
>>> r.status
200
>>> r.data
'User-agent: *\nDisallow: /deny\n'
Installing
urllib3 can be installed with pip:
$ python -m pip install urllib3
Alternatively, you can grab the latest source code from GitHub:
$ git clone git://github.com/urllib3/urllib3.git $ python setup.py install
Documentation

1.18.1 (2016-10-27)
CVE-2016-9015. Users who are using urllib3 version 1.17 or 1.18 along with PyOpenSSL injection and OpenSSL 1.1.0 must upgrade to this version. This release fixes a vulnerability whereby urllib3 in the above configuration would silently fail to validate TLS certificates due to erroneously setting invalid flags in OpenSSL’s SSL_CTX_set_verify function. These erroneous flags do not cause a problem in OpenSSL versions before 1.1.0, which interprets the presence of any flag as requesting certificate validation.
There is no PR for this patch, as it was prepared for simultaneous disclosure and release. The master branch received the same fix in Pull #1010.

Several urllib3.util.Timeout-related fixes. Also changed constructor signature to a more sensible order. [Backwards incompatible] (Issues #252, #262, #263)
Use backports.ssl_match_hostname if it’s installed. (Issue #274)
Added .tell() method to urllib3.response.HTTPResponse which returns the number of bytes read so far. (Issue #277)
Support for platforms without threading. (Issue #289)
Expand default-port comparison in HTTPConnectionPool.is_same_host to allow a pool with no specified port to be considered equal to to an HTTP/HTTPS url with port 80/443 explicitly provided. (Issue #305)
Improved default SSL/TLS settings to avoid vulnerabilities. (Issue #309)
Fixed urllib3.poolmanager.ProxyManager not retrying on connect errors. (Issue #310)
Disable Nagle’s Algorithm on the socket for non-proxies. A subset of requests will send the entire HTTP request ~200 milliseconds faster; however, some of the resulting TCP packets will be smaller. (Issue #254)
Increased maximum number of SubjectAltNames in urllib3.contrib.pyopenssl from the default 64 to 1024 in a single certificate. (Issue #318)
Headers are now passed and stored as a custom urllib3.collections_.HTTPHeaderDict object rather than a plain dict. (Issue #329, #333)
Headers no longer lose their case on Python 3. (Issue #236)
urllib3.contrib.pyopenssl now uses the operating system’s default CA certificates on inject. (Issue #332)
Requests with retries=False will immediately raise any exceptions without wrapping them in MaxRetryError. (Issue #348)
Fixed open socket leak with SSL-related failures. (Issue #344, #348)
1.7.1 (2013-09-25)
Added granular timeout support with new urllib3.util.Timeout class. (Issue #231)
Fixed Python 3.4 support. (Issue #238)
1.7 (2013-08-14)
More exceptions are now pickle-able, with tests. (Issue #174)
Fixed redirecting with relative URLs in Location header. (Issue #178)
Support for relative urls in Location: ... header. (Issue #179)
urllib3.response.HTTPResponse now inherits from io.IOBase for bonus file-like functionality. (Issue #187)
Passing assert_hostname=False when creating a HTTPSConnectionPool will skip hostname verification for SSL connections. (Issue #194)
New method urllib3.response.HTTPResponse.stream(...) which acts as a generator wrapped around .read(...). (Issue #198)
IPv6 url parsing enforces brackets around the hostname. (Issue #199)
Fixed thread race condition in urllib3.poolmanager.PoolManager.connection_from_host(...) (Issue #204)
ProxyManager requests now include non-default port in Host: ... header. (Issue #217)
Added HTTPS proxy support in ProxyManager. (Issue #170 #139)
New RequestField object can be passed to the fields=... param which can specify headers. (Issue #220)

Contrib: Optional SNI support for Py2 using PyOpenSSL. (Issue #156)
ProxyManager automatically adds Host: ... header if not given.
Improved SSL-related code. cert_req now optionally takes a string like “REQUIRED” or “NONE”. Same with ssl_version takes strings like “SSLv23” The string values reflect the suffix of the respective constant variable. (Issue #130)
Vendored socksipy now based on Anorov’s fork which handles unexpectedly closed proxy connections and larger read buffers. (Issue #135)
Ensure the connection is closed if no data is received, fixes connection leak on some platforms. (Issue #133)
Added SNI support for SSL/TLS connections on Py32+. (Issue #89)
Tests fixed to be compatible with Py26 again. (Issue #125)
Added ability to choose SSL version by passing an ssl.PROTOCOL_* constant to the ssl_version parameter of HTTPSConnectionPool. (Issue #109)
Allow an explicit content type to be specified when encoding file fields. (Issue #126)
Exceptions are now pickleable, with tests. (Issue #101)
Fixed default headers not getting passed in some cases. (Issue #99)
Treat “content-encoding” header value as case-insensitive, per RFC 2616 Section 3.5. (Issue #110)
“Connection Refused” SocketErrors will get retried rather than raised. (Issue #92)
Updated vendored six, no longer overrides the global six module namespace. (Issue #113)
urllib3.exceptions.MaxRetryError contains a reason property holding the exception that prompted the final retry. If reason is None then it was due to a redirect. (Issue #92, #114)
Fixed PoolManager.urlopen() from not redirecting more than once. (Issue #149)
Don’t assume Content-Type: text/plain for multi-part encoding parameters that are not files. (Issue #111)
Pass strict param down to httplib.HTTPConnection. (Issue #122)
Added mechanism to verify SSL certificates by fingerprint (md5, sha1) or against an arbitrary hostname (when connecting by IP or for misconfigured servers). (Issue #140)
Streaming decompression support. (Issue #159)
1.5 (2012-08-02)
Added urllib3.add_stderr_logger() for quickly enabling STDERR debug logging in urllib3.
Native full URL parsing (including auth, path, query, fragment) available in urllib3.util.parse_url(url).
Built-in redirect will switch method to ‘GET’ if status code is 303. (Issue #11)
urllib3.PoolManager strips the scheme and host before sending the request uri. (Issue #8)
New urllib3.exceptions.DecodeError exception for when automatic decoding, based on the Content-Type header, fails.
Fixed bug with pool depletion and leaking connections (Issue #76). Added explicit connection closing on pool eviction. Added urllib3.PoolManager.clear().
99% -> 100% unit test coverage.
1.4 (2012-06-16)
Minor AppEngine-related fixes.
Switched from mimetools.choose_boundary to uuid.uuid4().
Improved url parsing. (Issue #73)
IPv6 url support. (Issue #72)
1.3 (2012-03-25)
Removed pre-1.0 deprecated API.
Refactored helpers into a urllib3.util submodule.
Fixed multipart encoding to support list-of-tuples for keys with multiple values. (Issue #48)
Fixed multiple Set-Cookie headers in response not getting merged properly in Python 3. (Issue #53)
AppEngine support with Py27. (Issue #61)
Minor encode_multipart_formdata fixes related to Python 3 strings vs bytes.

Fixed packaging bug of not shipping test-requirements.txt. (Issue #47)
1.2.1 (2012-02-05)
Fixed another bug related to when ssl module is not available. (Issue #41)
Location parsing errors now raise urllib3.exceptions.LocationParseError which inherits from ValueError.
1.2 (2012-01-29)
Added Python 3 support (tested on 3.2.2)
Dropped Python 2.5 support (tested on 2.6.7, 2.7.2)
Use select.poll instead of select.select for platforms that support it.

Fixed PoolManager redirects between schemes (such as HTTP -> HTTPS) not completing properly. (Issue #28, uncovered by Issue #10 in v1.1)
Ported dummyserver to use tornado instead of webob + eventlet. Removed extraneous unsupported dummyserver testing backends. Added socket-level tests.
More tests. Achievement Unlocked: 99% Coverage.
1.1 (2012-01-07)
Refactored dummyserver to its own root namespace module (used for testing).
Added hostname verification for VerifiedHTTPSConnection by vendoring in Py32’s ssl_match_hostname. (Issue #25)
Fixed cross-host HTTP redirects when using PoolManager. (Issue #10)
Fixed decode_content being ignored when set through urlopen. (Issue #27)
Fixed timeout-related bugs. (Issues #17, #23)
1.0.2 (2011-11-04)
Fixed typo in VerifiedHTTPSConnection which would only present as a bug if you’re using the object manually. (Thanks pyos)
Made RecentlyUsedContainer (and consequently PoolManager) more thread-safe by wrapping the access log in a mutex. (Thanks @christer)
Made RecentlyUsedContainer more dict-like (corrected __delitem__ and __getitem__ behaviour), with tests. Shouldn’t affect core urllib3 code.
1.0.1 (2011-10-10)
Fixed a bug where the same connection would get returned into the pool twice, causing extraneous “HttpConnectionPool is full” log warnings.
1.0 (2011-10-08)
Added PoolManager with LRU expiration of connections (tested and documented).
Added ProxyManager (needs tests, docs, and confirmation that it works with HTTPS proxies).
Added optional partial-read support for responses when preload_content=False. You can now make requests and just read the headers without loading the content.
Made response decoding optional (default on, same as before).
Added optional explicit boundary string for encode_multipart_formdata.
Convenience request methods are now inherited from RequestMethods. Old helpers like get_url and post_url should be abandoned in favour of the new request(method, url, ...).
Refactored code to be even more decoupled, reusable, and extendable.
License header added to .py files.
Embiggened the documentation: Lots of Sphinx-friendly docstrings in the code and docs in docs/ and on https://urllib3.readthedocs.io/.
Embettered all the things!
