Requests Defaulter

Small library to set default headers in requests

Currently there's no easy way to set default headers in requests. This patches the requests library to enable default headers to be set across the board.

Using this library

You can install this library from pypi.

To do this using pipenv run:

pipenv install requestsdefaulter

You can then set default headers in requests by running

import requestsdefaulter

def default_header_provider():
    return { "X-Your-Header": "Contents Of Header"}

requestsdefaulter.default_headers(default_header_provider)

And make your request as normal

import requests

requests.get("https://example.com")

And your request will contain the header
