httplib2是一个使用python写的支持的非常全面的http特性的库。需要Python2.3或更高版本的运行环境,0.5.0版及其以后包含了对Python3的支持。
简单的例子:
import httplib2
h = httplib2.Http(".cache")
resp, content = h.request("http://example.org/", "GET")
认证实例:
import httplib2
h = httplib2.Http(".cache")
h.add_credentials('name', 'password')
resp, content = h.request("https://example.org/chap/2",
"PUT", body="This is text",
headers={'content-type':'text/plain'} )
缓存控制:
import httplib2
h = httplib2.Http(".cache")
resp, content = h.request("http://bitworking.org/")
...
resp, content = h.request("http://bitworking.org/",
headers={'cache-control':'no-cache'})
