==================== READ ME

Dogbutler is a client library base on requests but with a cache and persistent cookie support.

==================== INSTALLATION

pip install dogbutler

==================== USAGE

DogButler supports GET, HEAD, POST, PATCH, PUT, DELETE, and OPTIONS requests.

import dogbutler r = dogbutler.get('http://www.google.com', headers={'a': 'antelope'}, cookies={'a': 'apple'}) r.status_code 200 r.content

Sessions

A session has its own cache, cookie jar, and redirect history.

from dogbutler import Session s = Session() r = s.get('http://www.google.com', headers={'a': 'antelope'}, cookies={'a': 'apple'}) r.status_code 200 r.content

Async

Note: Only GET requests can be called asynchronously at the moment.

Each request is a tuple of (url, kwargs), where kwargs can contain optional arguments such as headers and cookies.

from dogbutler import async request1 = ('http://www.google.com', {'headers': {'a': 'antelope'}, 'cookies': {'a': 'apple'}}) request2 = ('http://www.apple.com', {'headers': {'b': 'bear'}, 'cookies': {'b': 'banana'}}) response1, response2 = async.get([request1, request2]) response1.status_code 200 response2.status_code 200
