Python Requests库介绍 - HelloWorld开发者社区

Requests唯一的一个非转基因的Python HTTP库，人类可以安全享用。

警告：非专业使用其他HTTP库会导致危险的副作用，包括：安全缺陷症、冗余代码症、重新发明轮子症、啃文档症、抑郁、头疼、甚至死亡。1

HTTP协议简介

什么是http协议？

HyperText Transfer Protocol 超文本传输协议

The Hypertext Transfer Protocol(HTTP) is a stateless(无状态)
application-level protocol for distributed(分布式),
collaborative(协作式), hypertext information systems(超文本信息系统).

curl命令

在Linux中curl是一个利用URL规则在命令行下工作的文件传输工具，可以说是一款很强大的http命令行工具。它支持文件的上传和下载，是综合传输工具，但按传统，习惯称url为下载工具。

语法：$ curl [option] [url]

常用参数：
-v 参数可以显示一次http通信的整个过程，包括端口连接和http request头信息。

本地服务端

http://httpbin.org/ 是Requests作者自己写的服务端，这个网站能测试HTTP请求和响应的各种信息，比如cookie、ip、headers和登录验证等，且支持GET、POST等多种方法，对web开发和测试很有帮助。它用Python+Flask编写，是一个开源项目2。

注意：

Will it work with windows? - No.3

由于windows平台不支持gunicorn，gunicorn安装成功后，启动会出现ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'fcntl'。

本地启动服务端程序，注意重新开一个concle。Linux下部署：

$ pip3 install httpbin
$ pip3 install gunicorn

# 启动服务
$ gunicorn -b :80 httpbin:app

启动之后可以看到

root@xxx:~# gunicorn -b :80 httpbin:app
[2019-02-19 10:29:26 +0800] [5110] [INFO] Starting gunicorn 19.9.0
[2019-02-19 10:29:26 +0800] [5110] [INFO] Listening at: http://0.0.0.0:80 (5110)
[2019-02-19 10:29:26 +0800] [5110] [INFO] Using worker: sync
[2019-02-19 10:29:26 +0800] [5114] [INFO] Booting worker with pid: 5114

然后访问就行了，这里将ip和域名进行了映射：
Python Requests库介绍

安装到本地后能加快访问速度，更高效帮助我们本地做测试。

1、使用urllib系列4

这里只做简单的介绍。

urllib，urllib2，urllib3是进化关系吗？

urllib和urllib2是相互独立的模块(Python2.x中)，Python3.x将两个模块进行了整合，整合之后的模块为urllib。
urllib3提供线程安全连接池和文件post等支持，与urllib及urllib2的关系不大。
requests库使用了urllib3，这样的好处是多次请求使用同一个socket。

注：这里在Python2.7环境

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import urllib
import urllib2

URL_IP = 'http://www.onefine.top/ip'
URL_GET = 'http://www.onefine.top/get'


def use_simple_urllib2():
    response = urllib2.urlopen(URL_IP)
    print '>>>>Response Headers:'
    print response.info()  # 读取headers
    print '>>>>Response body:'
    print ''.join([line for line in response.readlines()])  # 读取body


def use_params_urllib2():
    # GET请求，构建请求参数
    params = urllib.urlencode({'param1': 'hello', 'param2': 'world'})
    print '>>>Request params:'
    print params
    # 发送请求
    response = urllib2.urlopen('?'.join([URL_GET, '%s']) % params)
    # 处理响应
    print '>>>>Response Headers:'
    print response.info()
    print '>>>>Status Code:'
    print response.getcode()
    print '>>>>Request body:'
    print ''.join([line for line in response.readlines()])


if __name__ == '__main__':
    print '>>>Use simple urllib2:'
    use_simple_urllib2()
    print ''
    print '>>>Use params urllib2:'
    use_params_urllib2()

执行结果：

>>>Use simple urllib2:
>>>>Response Headers:
Server: gunicorn/19.9.0
Date: Tue, 19 Feb 2019 05:28:11 GMT
Connection: close
Content-Type: application/json
Content-Length: 26
Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *
Access-Control-Allow-Credentials: true

>>>>Response body:
{"origin":"42.243.137.5"}


>>>Use params urllib2:
>>>Request params:
param2=world&param1=hello
>>>>Response Headers:
Server: gunicorn/19.9.0
Date: Tue, 19 Feb 2019 05:28:11 GMT
Connection: close
Content-Type: application/json
Content-Length: 250
Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *
Access-Control-Allow-Credentials: true

>>>>Status Code:
200
>>>>Request body:
{"args":{"param1":"hello","param2":"world"},"headers":{"Accept-Encoding":"identity","Connection":"close","Host":"www.onefine.top","User-Agent":"Python-urllib/2.7"},"origin":"42.243.137.5","url":"http://www.onefine.top/get?param2=world&param1=hello"}

2、使用requests

这里回到Python3.x环境：

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

import requests

URL_IP = 'http://www.onefine.top/ip'
URL_GET = 'http://www.onefine.top/get'


def use_simple_requests():
    # get/post/options/put/delete
    response = requests.get(URL_IP)
    print('>>>>Response Headers:')
    print(response.headers)
    print('>>>>Response body:')
    print(response.text) # 不需考虑编码等问题


def use_params_requests():
    params = {'param1': 'hello', 'param2': 'world'}
    response = requests.get(URL_GET, params=params)
    print('>>>>Response Headers:')
    print(response.headers)
    print('>>>>Status Code:')
    print(response.status_code)
    print('>>>>Reason:')
    print(response.reason)
    print('>>>>Request body:')
    print(response.text)


if __name__ == '__main__':
    print('>>>Use simple requests:')
    use_simple_requests()
    print('')
    print('>>>Use params requests:')
    use_params_requests()

执行结果为：

>>>Use simple requests:
>>>>Response Headers:
{'Server': 'gunicorn/19.9.0', 'Date': 'Tue, 19 Feb 2019 05:38:00 GMT', 'Connection': 'close', 'Content-Type': 'application/json', 'Content-Length': '26', 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin': '*', 'Access-Control-Allow-Credentials': 'true'}
>>>>Response body:
{"origin":"42.243.137.5"}


>>>Use params requests:
>>>>Response Headers:
{'Server': 'gunicorn/19.9.0', 'Date': 'Tue, 19 Feb 2019 05:38:00 GMT', 'Connection': 'close', 'Content-Type': 'application/json', 'Content-Length': '280', 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin': '*', 'Access-Control-Allow-Credentials': 'true'}
>>>>Status Code:
200
>>>>Reason:
OK
>>>>Request body:
{"args":{"param1":"hello","param2":"world"},"headers":{"Accept":"*/*","Accept-Encoding":"gzip, deflate","Connection":"keep-alive","Host":"www.onefine.top","User-Agent":"python-requests/2.21.0"},"origin":"42.243.137.5","url":"http://www.onefine.top/get?param1=hello&param2=world"}

我们对比一下使用urllib和requests的demo的响应头：

# urllib
"headers": {
    "Accept-Encoding": "identity", 
    "Connection": "close", 
    "Host": "www.onefine.top", 
    "User-Agent": "Python-urllib/2.7"
}, 

# requests
"headers": {
    "Accept": "*/*", 
    "Accept-Encoding": "gzip, deflate", 
    "Connection": "keep-alive", 
    "Host": "www.onefine.top", 
    "User-Agent": "python-requests/2.21.0"
},

requests库有urllib3的支持，所以将connection状态置为keep-alive，多次请求使用一个连接，消耗更小的资源。
