A user-friendly wrapper for pycurl that simplifies HTTP requests.
Use the package manager pip to install request_curl.
NOTE: You need Python and libcurl installed on your system to use or build pycurl. Some RPM distributions of curl/libcurl do not include everything necessary to build pycurl, in which case you need to install the developer specific RPM which is usually called curl-dev.
pip install request_curl
A request_curl session manages cookies, connection pooling, and configurations.
Basic Usage:
import request_curl
s = request_curl.Session()
s.get('https://httpbin.org/get') # returns <Response [200]>
s.request('GET', 'https://httpbin.org/get') # returns <Response [200]>Using a Context Manager
import request_curl
with request_curl.Session() as session:
session.get('https://httpbin.org/get') # returns <Response [200]>The response object is similar to that of the requests library.
import request_curl
s = request_curl.Session()
r = s.get("https://httpbin.org/get")
print(r) # prints response object
print(r.status_code) # prints status code
print(r.content) # prints response content in bytes
print(r.text) # prints response content as text
print(r.json) # prints response content as JSON
print(r.url) # prints response URL
print(r.headers) # prints response headersFormat the proxy as a string.
import request_curl
s = request_curl.Session()
# supports authentication: r = s.get("https://httpbin.org/get", proxies="ip:port:user:password")
r = s.get("https://httpbin.org/get", proxies="ip:port")HTTP2 is disabled by default.
import request_curl
s = request_curl.Session(http2=True)
r = s.get("https://httpbin.org/get")You can specify custom cipher suites as an array.
import request_curl
cipher_suite = [
"AES128-SHA256",
"AES256-SHA256",
"AES128-GCM-SHA256",
"AES256-GCM-SHA384"
]
s = request_curl.Session(cipher_suite=cipher_suite)
r = s.get("https://httpbin.org/get")Set debug to True to print raw input and output headers.
import request_curl
s = request_curl.Session()
r = s.get("https://httpbin.org/get", debug=True)Specify custom headers as a dictionary.
import request_curl
s = request_curl.Session()
headers = {
"User-Agent": "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/80.0.3987.163 Safari/537.36"
}
r = s.get("https://httpbin.org/get", headers=headers)import request_curl
s = request_curl.Session()
# sending form data
form_data = {"key": "value"}
response = s.post("https://httpbin.org/post", data=form_data)
# sending json data
json_data = {"key": "value"}
response = s.post("https://httpbin.org/post", json=json_data)To use request_curl with curl-impersonate, opt for our custom Docker image by either pulling or building it. The image comes with request_curl and curl-impersonate pre-installed. Check below for a demonstration on impersonating firefox98 tls-fingerprint and request_curl with our custom Docker Image.
Note: This feature is still considered experimental. Only tested with firefox fingerprint
To pull the Docker image:
docker pull h3adex/request-curl-impersonate:latest
docker run --rm -it h3adex/request-curl-impersonateExample Python code for a target website:
import request_curl
from request_curl import FIREFOX98_CIPHER_SUITE, FIREFOX98_HEADERS
# impersonates ff98
session = request_curl.Session(
http2=True,
cipher_suite=FIREFOX98_CIPHER_SUITE,
headers=FIREFOX98_HEADERS
)
response = session.get("https://tls.browserleaks.com/json")
# <Response [200]>
# "ja3_hash":"25e9b0dd5b8e9330b206eae87e885e19"
# same result as:
# docker run --rm lwthiker/curl-impersonate:0.5-ff curl_ff98 https://tls.browserleaks.com/jsonWe welcome contributions through pull requests. Before making major changes, please open an issue to discuss your intended changes. Also, ensure to update relevant tests.
