+\modulesynopsis{A comprehensive HTTP client library, \module{httplib2} supports many features left out of other HTTP libraries.} |
+ |
+ |
+% ==== 2. ==== |
+% Give a short overview of what the module does. |
+% If it is platform specific, mention this. |
+% Mention other important restrictions or general operating principles. |
+% For example: |
+ |
+The \module{httplib2} module is a comprehensive HTTP client library with the following features: |
+ |
+\begin{description} |
+\item[HTTP and HTTPS] HTTPS support is only available if the socket module was compiled with SSL support. |
+\item[Keep-Alive] Supports HTTP 1.1 Keep-Alive, keeping the socket open and performing multiple requests over the same connection if possible. |
+\item[Authentication] The following three types of HTTP Authentication are supported. These can be used over both HTTP and HTTPS. |
+ \begin{itemize} |
+ \item Digest |
+ \item Basic |
+ \item WSSE |
+ \end{itemize} |
+\item[Caching] |
+ The module can optionally operate with a private cache that understands the Cache-Control: header and uses both the ETag and Last-Modified cache validators. |
+\item[All Methods] |
+ The module can handle any HTTP request method, not just GET and POST. |
+\item[Redirects] |
+ Automatically follows 3XX redirects on GETs. |
+\item[Compression] |
+ Handles both 'deflate' and 'gzip' types of compression. |
+\item[Proxies] |
+ If the Socksipy module is installed then httplib2 can handle sock4, sock5 and http proxies. |
+\item[Lost update support] |
+ Automatically adds back ETags into PUT requests to resources we have already cached. This implements Section 3.2 of Detecting the Lost Update Problem Using Unreserved Checkout |
+\end{description} |
+ |
+% ==== 3. ==== |
+% List the public functions defined by the module. Begin with a |
+% standard phrase. You may also list the exceptions and other data |
+% items defined in the module, insofar as they are important for the |
+% user. |
+ |
+The \module{httplib2} module defines the following variables: |
+% ---- 3.2. ---- |
+% Data items are described using a ``datadesc'' block. This has only |
+% one parameter: the item's name. |
+ |
+\begin{datadesc}{debuglevel} |
+The amount of debugging information to print. The default is 0. |
+\end{datadesc} |
+ |
+\begin{datadesc}{RETRIES} |
+A request will be tried 'RETRIES' times if it fails at the socket/connection level. |
+The default is 2. |
+\end{datadesc} |
+ |
+% --- 3.3. --- |
+% Exceptions are described using a ``excdesc'' block. This has only |
+% one parameter: the exception name. Exceptions defined as classes in |
+% the source code should be documented using this environment, but |
+% constructor parameters must be omitted. |
+ |
+The \module{httplib2} module may raise the following Exceptions. Note that |
+there is an option that turns exceptions into |
+normal responses with an HTTP status code indicating |
+an error occured. See \member{Http.force_exception_to_status_code} |
+ |
+\begin{excdesc}{HttpLib2Error} |
+The Base Exception for all exceptions raised by httplib2. |
+\end{excdesc} |
+ |
+\begin{excdesc}{RedirectMissingLocation} |
+A 3xx redirect response code was provided but no Location: header |
+was provided to point to the new location. |
+\end{excdesc} |
+ |
+\begin{excdesc}{RedirectLimit} |
+The maximum number of redirections was reached without coming to a final URI. |
+\end{excdesc} |
+ |
+ |
+\begin{excdesc}{ServerNotFoundError} |
+Unable to resolve the host name given. |
+\end{excdesc} |
+ |
+\begin{excdesc}{RelativeURIError} |
+A relative, as opposed to an absolute URI, was passed into request(). |
+\end{excdesc} |
+ |
+\begin{excdesc}{FailedToDecompressContent} |
+The headers claimed that the content of the response was compressed but the |
+decompression algorithm applied to the content failed. |
+\end{excdesc} |
+ |
+\begin{excdesc}{UnimplementedDigestAuthOptionError} |
+The server requested a type of Digest authentication that we |
+are unfamiliar with. |
+\end{excdesc} |
+ |
+\begin{excdesc}{UnimplementedHmacDigestAuthOptionError} |
+The server requested a type of HMACDigest authentication that we |
+are unfamiliar with. |
+\end{excdesc} |
+ |
+% ---- 3.4. ---- |
+% Other standard environments: |
+% |
+% classdesc - Python classes; same arguments are funcdesc |
+% methoddesc - methods, like funcdesc but has an optional parameter |
+% to give the type name: \begin{methoddesc}[mytype]{name}{args} |
+% By default, the type name will be the name of the |
+% last class defined using classdesc. The type name |
+% is required if the type is implemented in C (because |
+% there's no classdesc) or if the class isn't directly |
+% documented (if it's private). |
+% memberdesc - data members, like datadesc, but with an optional |
+% type name like methoddesc. |
+ |
+\begin{classdesc}{Http}{\optional{cache=None}, \optional{timeout=None}, \optional{proxy_info=None}} |
+The class that represents a client HTTP interface. |
+The \var{cache} parameter is either the name of a directory |
+to be used as a flat file cache, or it must an object that |
+implements the required caching interface. |
+The \var{timeout} parameter is the socket level timeout. |
+The \var{proxy_info} is an instance of \class{ProxyInfo} and is supplied |
+if a proxy is to be used. Note that the Socksipy module must be |
+installed for proxy support to work. |
+\end{classdesc} |
+ |
+\begin{classdesc}{Response}{info} |
+Response is a subclass of \class{dict} and instances of this |
+class are returned from calls |
+to Http.request. The \var{info} parameter is either |
+an \class{rfc822.Message} or an \class{httplib.HTTPResponse} object. |
+\end{classdesc} |
+ |
+\begin{classdesc}{FileCache}{dir_name, \optional{safe=safename}} |
+FileCache implements a Cache as a directory of files. |
+The \var{dir_name} parameter is |
+the name of the directory to use. If the directory does |
+not exist then FileCache attempts to create the directory. |
+The optional \var{safe} parameter is a funtion which generates |
+the cache filename for each URI. A FileCache object is |
+constructed and used for caching when you pass a directory name |
+into the constructor of \class{Http}. |
+\end{classdesc} |
+ |
+\begin{classdesc}{ProxyInfo}{proxy_type, proxy_host, proxy_port, \optional{proxy_rdns=None}, \optional{proxy_user=None}, \optional{proxy_pass=None}} |
+The parameter \var{proxy_type} must be set to one of socks.PROXY_TYPE_XXX |
+constants. The \var{proxy_host} and \var{proxy_port} must be set to the location |
+of the proxy. The optional \var{proxy_rdns} should be set to True if |
+the DNS server on the proxy should be used. The \var{proxy_user} and |
+\var{proxy_pass} are supplied when the proxy is protected by authentication. |
+\end{classdesc} |
+ |
+ |
+% If your module defines new object types (for a built-in module) or |
+% classes (for a module written in Python), you should list the |
+% methods and instance variables (if any) of each type or class in a |
+% separate subsection. |
+ |
+\subsection{Http Objects} |
+\label{http-objects} |
+% This label is generally useful for referencing this section, but is |
+% also used to give a filename when generating HTML. |
+ |
+Http objects have the following methods: |
+ |
+\begin{methoddesc}[Http]{request}{uri, \optional{method="GET", body=None, headers=None, redirections=DEFAULT_MAX_REDIRECTS, connection_type=None}} |
+Performs a single HTTP request. |
+The \var{uri} is the URI of the HTTP resource and can begin with either \code{http} or \code{https}. The value of \var{uri} must be an absolute URI. |
+ |
+The \var{method} is the HTTP method to perform, such as \code{GET}, \code{POST}, \code{DELETE}, etc. There is no restriction |
+on the methods allowed. |
+ |
+The \var{body} is the entity body to be sent with the request. It is a string |
+object. |
+ |
+Any extra headers that are to be sent with the request should be provided in the |
+\var{headers} dictionary. |
+ |
+The maximum number of redirect to follow before raising an exception is \var{redirections}. The default is 5. |
+ |
+The \var{connection_type} is the type of connection object to use. The supplied class |
+should implement the interface of httplib.HTTPConnection. |
+ |
+The return value is a tuple of (response, content), the first being and instance of the |
+\class{Response} class, the second being a string that contains the response entity body. |
+\end{methoddesc} |
+ |
+\begin{methoddesc}[Http]{add_credentials}{name, password, \optional{domain=None}} |
+Adds a name and password that will be used when a request |
+requires authentication. Supplying the optional \var{domain} name will |
+restrict these credentials to only be sent to the specified |
+domain. If \var{domain} is not specified then the given credentials will |
+be used to try to satisfy every HTTP 401 challenge. |
+\end{methoddesc} |
+ |
+\begin{methoddesc}[Http]{add_certificate}{key, cert, domain} |
+Add a \var{key} and \var{cert} that will be used for an SSL connection |
+to the specified domain. \var{keyfile} is the name of a PEM formatted |
+file that contains your private key. \var{certfile} is a PEM formatted certificate chain file. |
+\end{methoddesc} |
+ |
+\begin{methoddesc}[Http]{clear_credentials}{} |
+Remove all the names and passwords used for authentication. |
+\end{methoddesc} |
+ |
+\begin{memberdesc}[Http]{follow_redirects} |
+If \code{True}, which is the default, safe redirects are followed, where |
+safe means that the client is only doing a \code{GET} or \code{HEAD} on the |
+URI to which it is being redirected. If \code{False} then no redirects are followed. |
+Note that a False 'follow_redirects' takes precedence over a True 'follow_all_redirects'. |
+Another way of saying that is for 'follow_all_redirects' to have any affect, 'follow_redirects' |
+must be True. |
+\end{memberdesc} |
+ |
+\begin{memberdesc}[Http]{forward_authorization_headers} |
+If \code{False}, which is the default, then Authorization: headers are |
+stripped from redirects. If \code{True} then Authorization: headers are left |
+in place when following redirects. This parameter only applies if following |
+redirects is turned on. Note that turning this on could cause your credentials |
+to leak, so carefully consider the consequences. |
+\end{memberdesc} |
+ |
+\begin{memberdesc}[Http]{follow_all_redirects} |
+If \code{False}, which is the default, only safe redirects are followed, where |
+safe means that the client is only doing a \code{GET} or \code{HEAD} on the |
+URI to which it is being redirected. If \code{True} then all redirects are followed. |
+Note that a False 'follow_redirects' takes precedence over a True 'follow_all_redirects'. |
+Another way of saying that is for 'follow_all_redirects' to have any affect, 'follow_redirects' |
+must be True. |
+\end{memberdesc} |
+ |
+\begin{memberdesc}[Http]{force_exception_to_status_code} |
+If \code{True}, which is the default, then no \module{httplib2} exceptions will be thrown. Instead, |
+those error conditions will be turned into \class{Response} objects |
+that will be returned normally. |
+ |
+If \code{False}, then exceptions will be thrown. |
+\end{memberdesc} |
+ |
+\begin{memberdesc}[Http]{ignore_etag} |
+Defaults to \code{False}. If \code{True}, then any etags present in the cached response |
+are ignored when processing the current request, i.e. httplib2 does \strong{not} use |
+'if-match' for PUT or 'if-none-match' when GET or HEAD requests are made. This |
+is mainly to deal with broken servers which supply an etag, but change it capriciously. |
+\end{memberdesc} |
+ |
+\subsection{Cache Objects} |
+\label{cache-objects} |
+% This label is generally useful for referencing this section, but is |
+% also used to give a filename when generating HTML. |
+ |
+If you wish to supply your own caching implementation |
+then you will need to pass in an object that supports the |
+following methods. Note that the \module{memcache} module |
+supports this interface natively. |
+ |
+\begin{methoddesc}[Cache]{get}{key} |
+Takes a string \var{key} and returns the value as a string. |
+\end{methoddesc} |
+ |
+\begin{methoddesc}[Cache]{set}{key, value} |
+Takes a string \var{key} and \var{value} and stores it in the cache. |
+\end{methoddesc} |
+ |
+\begin{methoddesc}[Cache]{delete}{key} |
+Deletes the cached value stored at \var{key}. The value |
+of \var{key} is a string. |
+\end{methoddesc} |
+ |
+ |
+ |
+ |
+\subsection{Response Objects} |
+\label{response-objects} |
+% This label is generally useful for referencing this section, but is |
+% also used to give a filename when generating HTML. |
+ |
+Response objects are derived from \class{dict} and map |
+header names (lower case with the trailing colon removed) |
+to header values. In addition to the dict methods |
+a Response object also has: |
+ |
+\begin{memberdesc}[Response]{fromcache} |
+If \code{true} the the response was returned from the cache. |
+\end{memberdesc} |
+ |
+\begin{memberdesc}[Response]{version} |
+The version of HTTP that the server supports. A value |
+of 11 means '1.1'. |
+\end{memberdesc} |
+ |
+\begin{memberdesc}[Response]{status} |
+The numerical HTTP status code returned in the response. |
+\end{memberdesc} |
+ |
+\begin{memberdesc}[Response]{reason} |
+The human readable component of the HTTP response status code. |
+\end{memberdesc} |
+ |
+\begin{memberdesc}[Response]{previous} |
+If redirects are followed then the \class{Response} object returned |
+is just for the very last HTTP request and \var{previous} points to |
+the previous \class{Response} object. In this manner they form a chain |
+going back through the responses to the very first response. |
+Will be \code{None} if there are no previous respones. |
+\end{memberdesc} |
+ |
+The Response object also populates the header \code{content-location}, that |
+contains the URI that was ultimately requested. This is useful if |
+redirects were encountered, you can determine the ultimate URI that |
+the request was sent to. All Response objects contain this key value, |
+including \code{previous} responses so you can determine the entire |
+chain of redirects. If \member{Http.force_exception_to_status_code} is \code{True} |
+and the number of redirects has exceeded the number of allowed number |
+of redirects then the \class{Response} object will report the error |
+in the status code, but the complete chain of previous responses will |
+still be in tact. |
+ |
+ |
+% ==== 4. ==== |
+% Now is probably a good time for a complete example. (Alternatively, |
+% an example giving the flavor of the module may be given before the |
+% detailed list of functions.) |
+ |
+\subsection{Examples \label{httplib2-example}} |
+ |
+To do a simple \code{GET} request just supply the absolute URI |
+of the resource: |
+ |
+\begin{verbatim} |
+import httplib2 |
+h = httplib2.Http() |
+resp, content = h.request("http://bitworking.org/") |
+assert resp.status == 200 |
+assert resp['content-type'] == 'text/html' |
+\end{verbatim} |
+ |
+Here is more complex example that does a PUT |
+of some text to a resource that requires authentication. |
+The Http instance also uses a file cache |
+in the directory \code{.cache}. |
+ |
+\begin{verbatim} |
+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'} ) |
+\end{verbatim} |
+ |
+Here is an example that connects to a server that |
+supports the Atom Publishing Protocol. |
+ |
+\begin{verbatim} |
+import httplib2 |
+h = httplib2.Http() |
+h.add_credentials(myname, mypasswd) |
+h.follow_all_redirects = True |
+headers = {'Content-Type': 'application/atom+xml'} |
+body = """<?xml version="1.0" ?> |
+ <entry xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom"> |
+ <title>Atom-Powered Robots Run Amok</title> |
+ <id>urn:uuid:1225c695-cfb8-4ebb-aaaa-80da344efa6a</id> |
+ <updated>2003-12-13T18:30:02Z</updated> |
+ <author><name>John Doe</name></author> |
+ <content>Some text.</content> |
+</entry> |
+""" |
+uri = "http://www.example.com/collection/" |
+resp, content = h.request(uri, "POST", body=body, headers=headers) |
+\end{verbatim} |
+% Note that there is no trailing ">>> " prompt shown. |
+ |
+Here is an example of providing data to an HTML form processor. |
+In this case we presume this is a POST form. We need to take our |
+data and format it as "application/x-www-form-urlencoded" data and use that as a |
+body for a POST request. |
+ |
+\begin{verbatim} |
+>>> import httplib2 |
+>>> import urllib |
+>>> data = {'name': 'fred', 'address': '123 shady lane'} |
+>>> body = urllib.urlencode(data) |
+>>> body |
+'name=fred&address=123+shady+lane' |
+>>> h = httplib2.Http() |
+>>> resp, content = h.request("http://example.com", method="POST", body=body) |
+\end{verbatim} |
+% Note that there is no trailing ">>> " prompt shown. |
+ |
+Here is an example of using a proxy server: |
+\begin{verbatim} |
+import httplib2 |
+import socks |
+ |
+httplib2.debuglevel=4 |
+h = httplib2.Http(proxy_info = httplib2.ProxyInfo(socks.PROXY_TYPE_HTTP, 'localhost', 8000)) |
+r,c = h.request("http://bitworking.org/news/") |
+\end{verbatim} |
+ |
+ |
+ |
