WSGIProxy2

Installation

With pip::

$ pip install WSGIProxy2

Install optionnal backends::

$ pip install requests urllib3

Usage

Create a proxy::

from wsgiproxy import HostProxy proxy = HostProxy(application_url)

Then use it. Here is an example with WebOb but you can use it like a classic WSGI application::

from webob import Request req = Request.blank('/form.html') resp = req.get_response(proxy) print(resp.text)

... ...

The Proxy application accept some keyword arguments. Those arguments are passed to the client during the process.

If no client as specified then python httplib is used. It's recommended to use a more robust client able to manage a connection pool and stuff.

Use urllib3 <http://pypi.python.org/pypi/urllib3>_::

proxy = HostProxy(application_url, client='urllib3')

Use requests <http://pypi.python.org/pypi/requests>_. This client support response streaming::

proxy = HostProxy(application_url, client='requests')
