careful-requests

This module provides an HTTP adapter and session for use with Requests when communicating with servers that are hyper-sensitive to standard HTTP headers. It may be sad, but not all HTTP servers are HTTP-compliant and some are even suspicious of normal headers. Use careful-requests if you still want to use the excellent Requests module.

Example usage

here you go

from careful_requests import Careful

s = Careful()

>>> s.get("http://httpbin.org/get")
<Response [200]>

"Accept-Encoding" will not be sent.

Install

sudo pip install careful-requests

sudo python setup.py install

Testing

make test

• 0.1.3: support both requests==1.0.4 and requests==0.14.2, which is useful for proxy support.
