I am after an example describing the usage of Twisted\'s HTTP Client.
After reading the excellent blog post on the internals of Twisted, I understand how the \"Factory\
I started using treq with twisted. treq has an API which is very similar to Requests. https://pypi.python.org/pypi/treq/0.2.0
As of Twisted 9.0, there are actually two HTTP clients available. The older one has quite a few features, such as automatically following redirects, interpreting cookie headers, etc. You can find an example of its usage here:
http://twistedmatrix.com/documents/current/web/examples/
(getpage.py
and dlpage.py
)
Unfortunately, the interface presented by the older client makes a number of common tasks difficult. For example, using getPage
, you cannot examine arbitrary response headers.
The newer HTTP client isn't yet as featureful as the old one, but it presents an interface intended to eliminate the limitations of getPage
. It is also intended to be more easily extended and customized. You can find a document describing its usage here:
http://twistedmatrix.com/documents/current/web/howto/client.html
As of Twisted 10, you may want to use the Agent
class.
