Tealeaf
A simple interface for readable Python HTTP clients
- No dependencies
- Simple and readable
- Lightweight
A simple example
import tealeaf
# simple POST
api = tealeaf.Api('https://www.postman-echo.com')
api.post('/post', {"message": "hello tealeaf"}).json()
# Using bearer tokens
api = tealeaf.Api(
'https://www.postman-echo.com',
credentials=tealeaf.BearerToken('my-jwt')
)
api.post('/post', {"message": "hello authorized tealeaf"}).json()
Integrates easily with pydantic
for data validation
import tealeaf
from pydantic import BaseModel
class Message(BaseModel):
message: str
class EchoResponse(BaseModel):
data: Message
url: str
# simple POST
api = tealeaf.Api('https://www.postman-echo.com')
echo = api \
.post('/post', {"message": "hello tealeaf"}) \
.astype(EchoResponse)
print(repr(echo))
>>> EchoResponse(data=Message(message='hello tealeaf'), url='https://www.postman-echo.com/post')
An example with custom auth algorithm:
# define a custom auth handler with a `preprocess_request` method
class CustomCredentialHandler(tealeaf.ApiCredential):
def __init__(self, secret: str):
super().__init__()
self.__secret = secret
def preprocess_request(self, request: tealeaf.Request):
# your algorithm goes here and modifies the request object
request.headers['secret-key'] = f'{request.data}{self.__secret}'
return request
api = tealeaf.Api(
'https://www.postman-echo.com',
credentials=CustomCredentialHandler('my-super-secret')
)
api.post('/post', {"message": "hello custom tealeaf auth"}).json()
