The next generation HTTP client for Web3.
Project description
HTTPX - A next-generation HTTP client for Python.
HTTPX is a fully featured HTTP client for Python 3, which provides sync and async APIs, and support for both HTTP/1.1 and HTTP/2.
Note: HTTPX should be considered in beta. We believe we've got the public API to
a stable point now, but would strongly recommend pinning your dependencies to the 0.17.*
release, so that you're able to properly review API changes between package updates. A 1.0 release is expected to be issued sometime in 2021.
Let's get started...
>>> import httpx
>>> r = httpx.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 async API...
Use IPython or Python 3.8+ with python -m asyncio
to try this code interactively.
>>> import httpx
>>> async with httpx.AsyncClient() as client:
... r = await client.get('https://www.example.org/')
...
>>> r
<Response [200 OK]>
Features
HTTPX builds on the well-established usability of requests
, and gives you:
- A broadly requests-compatible API.
- Standard synchronous interface, but with async support if you need it.
- HTTP/1.1 and HTTP/2 support.
- Ability to make requests directly to WSGI applications or ASGI applications.
- Strict timeouts everywhere.
- Fully type annotated.
- 100% test coverage.
Plus all the standard features of requests
...
- International Domains and URLs
- Keep-Alive & Connection Pooling
- Sessions with Cookie Persistence
- Browser-style SSL Verification
- Basic/Digest Authentication
- Elegant Key/Value Cookies
- Automatic Decompression
- Automatic Content Decoding
- Unicode Response Bodies
- Multipart File Uploads
- HTTP(S) Proxy Support
- Connection Timeouts
- Streaming Downloads
- .netrc Support
- Chunked Requests
Installation
Install with pip:
$ pip install httpx
Or, to include the optional HTTP/2 support, use:

Dependencies
The HTTPX project relies on these excellent libraries:
httpcore
- The underlying transport implementation forhttpx
.h11
- HTTP/1.1 support.h2
- HTTP/2 support. (Optional)
certifi
- SSL certificates.rfc3986
- URL parsing & normalization.idna
- Internationalized domain name support.
sniffio
- Async library autodetection.brotlipy
- Decoding for "brotli" compressed responses. (Optional)
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.

. It is now fully removed. - The verbose
httpx.Timeout(5.0, connect_timeout=60.0)
style had previously been deprecated in favour ofhttpx.Timeout(5.0, connect=60.0)
. It is now fully removed. - Support for instantiating a timeout config missing some defaults, such as
httpx.Timeout(connect=60.0)
, had previously been deprecated in favour of enforcing a more explicit style, such ashttpx.Timeout(5.0, connect=60.0)
. This is now strictly enforced.
0.14.3 (September 2nd, 2020)
Added
http.Response()

Added
- Support
client.get(..., auth=None)
to bypass the default authentication on a clients. (Pull #1115) - Support
client.auth = ...
property setter. (Pull #1185) - Support
httpx.get(..., proxies=...)
on top-level request functions. (Pull #1198) - Display instances with nicer import styles. (Eg. <httpx.ReadTimeout ...>) (Pull #1155)
- Support
cookies=[(key, value)]
list-of-two-tuples style usage. (Pull #1211)
Fixed
- Ensure that automatically included headers on a request may be modified. (Pull #1205)
- Allow explicit
Content-Length
header on streaming requests. (Pull #1170) - Handle URL quoted usernames and passwords properly. (Pull #1159)
- Use more consistent default for
HEAD
requests, settingallow_redirects=True
. (Pull #1183) - If a transport error occurs while streaming the response, raise an
httpx
exception, not the underlyinghttpcore
exception. (Pull #1190) - Include the underlying
httpcore
traceback, when transport exceptions occur. (Pull #1199)
0.14.1 (August 11th, 2020)
Added
- The
httpx.URL(...)
class now raiseshttpx.InvalidURL
on invalid URLs, rather than exposing the underlyingrfc3986
exception. If a redirect response includes an invalid 'Location' header, then aRemoteProtocolError
exception is raised, which will be associated with the request that caused it. (Pull #1163)
Fixed
- Handling multiple
Set-Cookie
headers became broken in the 0.14.0 release, and is now resolved. (Pull #1156)
0.14.0 (August 7th, 2020)
The 0.14 release includes a range of improvements to the public API, intended on preparing for our upcoming 1.0 release.
- Our HTTP/2 support is now fully optional. You now need to use
pip install httpx[http2]
if you want to include the HTTP/2 dependancies. - Our HSTS support has now been removed. Rewriting URLs from
http
tohttps
if the host is on the HSTS list can be beneficial in avoiding roundtrips to incorrectly formed URLs, but on balance we've decided to remove this feature, on the principle of least surprise. Most programmatic clients do not include HSTS support, and for now we're opting to remove our support for it. - Our exception hierarchy has been overhauled. Most users will want to stick with their existing
httpx.HTTPError
usage, but we've got a clearer overall structure now. See https://www.python-httpx.org/exceptions/ for more details.
When upgrading you should be aware of the following public API changes. Note that deprecated usages will currently continue to function, but will issue warnings.
- You should now use
httpx.codes
consistently instead ofhttpx.StatusCodes
. - Usage of
httpx.Timeout()
should now always include an explicit default. Eg.httpx.Timeout(None, pool=5.0)
. - When using
httpx.Timeout()
, we now have more concisely named keyword arguments. Eg.read=5.0
, instead ofread_timeout=5.0
. - Use
httpx.Limits()
instead ofhttpx.PoolLimits()
, andlimits=...
instead ofpool_limits=...
. - The
httpx.Limits(max_keepalive=...)
argument is now deprecated in favour of a more explicithttpx.Limits(max_keepalive_connections=...)
. - Keys used with
Client(proxies={...})
should now be in the style of{"http://": ...}
, rather than{"http": ...}
. - The multidict methods
Headers.getlist()
andQueryParams.getlist()
are deprecated in favour of more consistent.get_list()
variants. - The
URL.is_ssl
property is deprecated in favour ofURL.scheme == "https"
. - The
URL.join(relative_url=...)
method is nowURL.join(url=...)
. This change does not support warnings for the deprecated usage style.
One notable aspect of the 0.14.0 release is that it tightens up the public API for httpx
, by ensuring that several internal attributes and methods have now become strictly private.
The following previously had nominally public names on the client, but were all undocumented and intended solely for internal usage. They are all now replaced with underscored names, and should not be relied on or accessed.
These changes should not affect users who have been working from the httpx
documentation.
.merge_url()
,.merge_headers()
,.merge_cookies()
,.merge_queryparams()
.build_auth()
,.build_redirect_request()
.redirect_method()
,.redirect_url()

.init_transport()
,.init_proxy_transport()
.proxies
,.transport
,.netrc
,.get_proxy_map()
See pull requests #997, #1065, #1071.
Some areas of API which were already on the deprecation path, and were raising warnings or errors in 0.13.x have now been escalated to being fully removed.
- Drop
ASGIDispatch
,WSGIDispatch
, which have been replaced byASGITransport
,WSGITransport

instead ofhttpx.PoolLimits()
, andlimits=...
instead ofpool_limits=...

url.full_path = ...
property setter. (Pull #1069) - The
URL.join(relative_url=...)
method is nowURL.join(url=...)

Fixed
- Fix pool options deprecation warning. (Pull #980)
- Include
httpx.URLLib3ProxyTransport
in top-level API. (Pull #979)
0.13.0 (May 22nd, 2020)
This release switches to httpcore
for all the internal networking, which means:
- We're using the same codebase for both our sync and async clients.
- HTTP/2 support is now available with the sync client.
- We no longer have a
urllib3
dependency for our sync client, although there is still an optionalURLLib3Transport
class.
It also means we've had to remove our UDS support, since maintaining that would have meant having to push back our work towards a 1.0 release, which isn't a trade-off we wanted to make.
We also now have a public "Transport API", which you can use to implement custom transport implementations against. This formalises and replaces our previously private "Dispatch API".
Changed
- Use
httpcore
for underlying HTTP transport. Dropurllib3
requirement. (Pull #804, #967) - Rename pool limit options from
soft_limit
/hard_limit
tomax_keepalive

class naming is deprecated in favour ofASGITransport
andWSGITransport
. (Pull #963)

The 0.13.0.dev2 is a pre-release version. To install it, use pip install httpx --pre
.
Added
- Logging via HTTPCORE_LOG_LEVEL and HTTPX_LOG_LEVEL environment variables and TRACE level logging. (HTTPCore Pull #79)
Fixed
- Reuse of connections on HTTP/2 in close concurrency situations. (HTTPCore Pull #81)

for all the internal networking, which means:
- We're using the same codebase for both our sync and async clients.
- HTTP/2 support is now available with the sync client.
- We no longer have a
urllib3

Fixed
- Resolved packaging issue, where additional files were being included.
0.12.0 (March 9th, 2020)
The 0.12 release tightens up the API expectations for httpx
by switching to private module names to enforce better clarity around public API.
All imports of httpx
should import from the top-level package only, such as from httpx import Request
, rather than importing from privately namespaced modules such as from httpx._models import Request
.
Added
- Support making response body available to auth classes with
.requires_response_body
. (Pull #803) - Export
NetworkError
exception. (Pull #814) - Add support for
NO_PROXY
environment variable. (Pull #835)

. (Pull #819) - Drop
backend=...
parameter onAsyncClient
, in favour of always autodetectingtrio
/asyncio
. (Pull #791)

allow_redirects=False
. (Pull #766) - Handle redirect with malformed Location headers missing host. (Pull #774)
0.11.0 (January 9th, 2020)
The 0.11 release reintroduces our sync support, so that httpx
now supports both a standard thread-concurrency API, and an async API.
Existing async httpx
users that are upgrading to 0.11 should ensure that:
- Async codebases should always use a client instance to make requests, instead of the top-level API.
- The async client is named as
httpx.AsyncClient()
, instead ofhttpx.Client()
. - When instantiating proxy configurations use the
httpx.Proxy()
class, instead of the previoushttpx.HTTPProxy()
. This new configuration class works for configuring both sync and async clients.
We believe the API is now pretty much stable, and are aiming for a 1.0 release sometime on or before April 2020.
Changed
- Top level API such as
httpx.get(url, ...)
,httpx.post(url, ...)
,httpx.request(method, url, ...)
becomes synchronous. - Added
httpx.Client()
for synchronous clients, withhttpx.AsyncClient
being used for async clients. - Switched to
proxies=httpx.Proxy(...)
for proxy configuration. - Network connection errors are wrapped in
httpx.NetworkError
, rather than exposing lower-level exception types directly.
Removed
- The
request.url.origin
property andhttpx.Origin
class are no longer available. - The per-request
cert
,verify
, andtrust_env
arguments are escalated from raising errors if used, to no longer being available. These arguments should be used on a per-client instance instead, or in the top-level API. - The
stream
argument has escalated from raising an error when used, to no longer being available. Use theclient.stream(...)
orhttpx.stream()
streaming API instead.
Fixed
- Redirect loop detection matches against
(method, url)
rather thanurl
. (Pull #734)
0.10.1 (December 31st, 2019)
Fixed
- Fix issue with concurrent connection acquiry. (Pull #700)
- Fix write error on closing HTTP/2 connections. (Pull #699)
0.10.0 (December 29th, 2019)
The 0.10.0 release makes some changes that will allow us to support both sync and async interfaces.
In particular with streaming responses the response.read()
method becomes response.aread()
, and the response.close()
method becomes response.aclose()
.
If following redirects explicitly the response.next()
method becomes response.anext()
.
Fixed
- End HTTP/2 streams immediately on no-body requests, rather than sending an empty body message. (Pull #682)
- Improve typing for
Response.request
: switch fromOptional[Request]
toRequest
. (Pull #666) Response.elapsed
now reflects the entire download time. (Pull #687, #692)
Changed
- Added
AsyncClient
as a synonym forClient
. (Pull #680) - Switch to
response.aread()
for conditionally reading streaming responses. (Pull #674) - Switch to
response.aclose()
andclient.aclose()
for explicit closing. (Pull #674, #675) - Switch to
response.anext()
for resolving the next redirect response. (Pull #676)
Removed
- When using a client instance, the per-request usage of
verify
,cert
, andtrust_env
have now escalated from raising a warning to raising an error. You should set these arguments on the client instead. (Pull #617) - Removed the undocumented
request.read()
, since end users should not require it.
0.9.5 (December 20th, 2019)
Fixed
- Fix Host header and HSTS rewrites when an explicit
:80
port is included in URL. (Pull #649) - Query Params on the URL string are merged with any
params=...
argument. (Pull #653) - More robust behavior when closing connections. (Pull #640)
- More robust behavior when handling HTTP/2 headers with trailing whitespace. (Pull #637)

Fixed
- Added expiry to Keep-Alive connections, resolving issues with acquiring connections. (Pull #627)
- Increased flow control windows on HTTP/2, resolving download speed issues. (Pull #629)

Fixed
- Fixed HTTP/2 with autodetection backend. (Pull #614)
0.9.2 (December 7th, 2019)
- Released due to packaging build artifact.
0.9.1 (December 6th, 2019)
- Released due to packaging build artifact.
0.9.0 (December 6th, 2019)
The 0.9 releases brings some major new features, including:
- A new streaming API.
- Autodetection of either asyncio or trio.
- Nicer timeout configuration.
- HTTP/2 support off by default, but can be enabled.
We've also removed all private types from the top-level package export.
In order to ensure you are only ever working with public API you should make
sure to only import the top-level package eg. import httpx
, rather than
importing modules within the package.
Added
- Added concurrency backend autodetection. (Pull #585)
- Added
Client(backend='trio')
andClient(backend='asyncio')
API. (Pull #585) - Added
response.stream_lines()
API. (Pull #575) - Added
response.is_error
API. (Pull #574) - Added support for
timeout=Timeout(5.0, connect_timeout=60.0)
styles. (Pull #593)
Fixed
- Requests or Clients with
timeout=None
now correctly always disable timeouts. (Pull #592) - Request 'Authorization' headers now have priority over
.netrc
authentication info. (Commit 095b691) - Files without a filename no longer set a Content-Type in multipart data. (Commit ed94950)
Changed
- Added
httpx.stream()
API. Usingstream=True
now results in a warning. (Pull #600, #610) - HTTP/2 support is switched to "off by default", but can be enabled explicitly. (Pull #584)
- Switched to
Client(http2=True)
API fromClient(http_versions=["HTTP/1.1", "HTTP/2"])
. (Pull #586) - Removed all private types from the top-level package export. (Pull #608)
- The SSL configuration settings of
verify
,cert
, andtrust_env
now raise warnings if used per-request when using a Client instance. They should always be set on the Client instance itself. (Pull #597) - Use plain strings "TUNNEL_ONLY" or "FORWARD_ONLY" on the HTTPProxy
proxy_mode
argument. TheHTTPProxyMode
enum still exists, but its usage will raise warnings. (#610) - Pool timeouts are now on the timeout configuration, not the pool limits configuration. (Pull #563)
- The timeout configuration is now named
httpx.Timeout(...)
, nothttpx.TimeoutConfig(...)
. The old version currently remains as a synonym for backwards compatability. (Pull #591)
