How to use httpx, a web client for Python
======
The httpx package for Python is an excellent and flexible module for
interacting with HTTP.
![Digital creative of a browser on the internet][1]
The `httpx` package for Python is a sophisticated web client. Once you install it, you can use it to get data from websites. As usual, the easiest way to install it is with the `pip` utility:
```
`$ python -m pip install httpx --user`
```
To use it, import it into a Python script, and then use the `.get` function to fetch data from a web address:
```
import httpx
result = httpx.get("<https://httpbin.org/get?hello=world>")
result.json()["args"]
```
Here's the output from that simple script:
```
`    {'hello': 'world'}`
```
### HTTP response
By default, `httpx` will not raise errors on a non-200 status. 
Try this code:
```
result = httpx.get("<https://httpbin.org/status/404>")
result
```
The result:
```
`    <Response [404 NOT FOUND]>`
```
It's possible to raise a response explicitly. Add this exception handler:
```
try:
    result.raise_for_status()
except Exception as exc:
    print("woops", exc)
```
Here's the result:
```
    woops Client error '404 NOT FOUND' for url '<https://httpbin.org/status/404>'
    For more information check: <https://httpstatuses.com/404>
```
### Custom client
It is worthwhile to use a custom client for anything but the simplest script. Aside from nice performance improvements, such as connection pooling, this is a good place to configure the client.
For example, you can set a custom base URL:
```
client = httpx.Client(base_url="<https://httpbin.org>")
result = client.get("/get?source=custom-client")
result.json()["args"]
```
Sample output:
```
`    {'source': 'custom-client'}`
```
This is useful for a typical scenario where you use the client to talk to a specific server. For example, using both `base_url` and `auth`, you can build a nice abstraction for an authenticated client:
```
client = httpx.Client(
    base_url="<https://httpbin.org>",
    auth=("good_person", "secret_password"),
)
result = client.get("/basic-auth/good_person/secret_password")
result.json()
```
Output:
```
`    {'authenticated': True, 'user': 'good_person'}`
```
One of the nicer things you can use this for is constructing the client at a top-level "main" function and then passing it around. This lets other functions use the client and lets them get unit-tested with a client connected to a local WSGI app.
```
def get_user_name(client):
    result = client.get("/basic-auth/good_person/secret_password")
    return result.json()["user"]
get_user_name(client)
    'good_person'
def application(environ, start_response):
    start_response('200 OK', [('Content-Type', 'application/json')])
    return [b'{"user": "pretty_good_person"}']
fake_client = httpx.Client(app=application, base_url="<https://fake-server>")
get_user_name(fake_client)
```
Output:
```
`    'pretty_good_person'`
```
### Try httpx
Visit [python-httpx.org][2] for more information, documentation, and tutorials. I've found it to be an excellent and flexible module for interacting with HTTP. Give it a try and see what it can do for you.
