pyreqwest

pyreqwest has been delightful so far: https://github.com/MarkusSintonen/pyreqwest It's been a pleasure to use, has a httpx compatibility layer, and it's fast (https://github.com/MarkusSintonen/pyreqwest/blob/main/docs/b...)

I'll plug Pyreqwest here: https://github.com/MarkusSintonen/pyreqwest It's been a pleasure to use, has a httpx compatibility layer for gradually migrating to its API, and it's a lot more performant (right now, I think it's the most performant Python http client out there: https://github.com/MarkusSintonen/pyreqwest/blob/main/docs/b...)

https://github.com/MarkusSintonen/pyreqwest is a great alternative, much more performant than requests/httpx/aiohttp, and provides an easy httpx compatible wrapper for migration.

This is yet another of several reasons why we've switched from httpx to pyreqwest[0]. Not only is httpx an actual supply chain risk now, but also it shows an unwillingness to fix outstanding bugs and issues, which is problematic in a project that has been adopted by so many users. For those migrating, pyreqwest provides a completely httpx-compatible wrapper.[1] [0]: https://github.com/MarkusSintonen/pyreqwest [1]: https://github.com/MarkusSintonen/pyreqwest/tree/main/python/pyreqwest/compatibili…

Building pyreqwest, a high-performance Python HTTP client backed by Rust’s reqwest. It has gotten quite feature rich: async and sync APIs, similar ergonomic interface of reqwest, full type hints, and built-in testing/mocking. It has no unsafe code, and no Python-side dependencies. (Started after getting too annoyed with all the issues httpx has.) https://github.com/MarkusSintonen/pyreqwest

I have been working on a new Python HTTP client which is 100% Rust-based (sync+async). Using reqwest under the hood and providing everything it has to offer to Python land + much more. Also including mocking capabilities. Here: https://github.com/MarkusSintonen/pyreqwest Started from the poor state of many Python HTTP clients and poor testing utilities there is for them. (Eg the neglected state of httpx and its all perf issues)

Python has lacked a batteries-included HTTP library that would have both async and sync clients. Httpx (httpcore), which has offered this, is unfortunately pretty much unmaintained and suffering from huge perf issues (https://github.com/encode/httpx/issues/3215). I built pyreqwest HTTP client for Python that is fully Rust based on top of reqwest. It includes all features reqwest offers plus some more. Also including unit testing utilities (mocking, ASGI app support). Go check https://github.com/MarkusSintonen/pyreqwest :)
