Installation
------------
``sprockets.mixins.http`` is available on the
`Python Package Index `_
and can be installed via ``pip``:

.. code-block:: bash

pip install sprockets.mixins.http

If you would like to use `tornado.curl_httpclient.CurlAsyncHTTPClient`,
you can install `pycurl `_ with:

Documentation
-------------

Requirements
------------
- `ietfparse `_ >=1.5.1
- `tornado `_ >=5
- `sprockets.mixins.mediatype[msgpack] `_ >=3

Example
-------

This examples demonstrates the most basic usage of ``sprockets.mixins.http``

.. code:: python

from tornado import ioloop, web
from sprockets.mixins import http

class RequestHandler(http.HTTPClientMixin, web.RequestHandler):

async def get(self, *args, **kwargs):
response = await self.http_fetch('https://api.github.com')
if not response.ok:
self.set_status(response.code)
self.write(response.body)

if __name__ == "__main__":
app = web.Application([(r'/', RequestHandler)])
app.listen(8000)
ioloop.IOLoop.current().start()

As with Tornado, to use the curl client which has numerous benefits:

.. code:: python

from tornado import httpclient, ioloop, web
from sprockets.mixins import http

httpclient.AsyncHTTPClient.configure(
'tornado.curl_httpclient.CurlAsyncHTTPClient')

class RequestHandler(http.HTTPClientMixin, web.RequestHandler):

async def get(self, *args, **kwargs):
response = await self.http_fetch('https://api.github.com')
if not response.ok:
self.set_status(response.code)
self.write(response.body)

if __name__ == "__main__":
app = web.Application([(r'/', RequestHandler)])
app.listen(8000)
ioloop.IOLoop.current().start()

Error Response Body
-------------------

For errors, i.e. a response with HTTP status code in the 400 range...

The HTTPResponse object's body is reduced down to just the error message.
That is this mixin's default behavior.

For a JSON response body with Problem Details (RFC 7807), you may want more
than just the error message. To gain access to the complete, deserialized
response body; a class that uses this mixin can set:

.. code:: python

self.simplify_error_response = False

Environment Variables
---------------------

+------------------+----------------------------------------------------------+
| HTTP_MAX_CLIENTS | An optional setting that specifies the maximum number of |
| | simultaneous asynchronous HTTP requests. If not |
| | specified, the default Tornado value of 10 will be used. |
