Installation

============

With pip::

  $ pip install WSGIProxy2

Install optional 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 accepts some keyword arguments. Those arguments are passed

to the client during the process.

If no client is 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 `_::

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

Use `requests `_. This client supports response streaming::

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