  • Chunked responses handling

  • Chunked requests

  • Fully type annotated.

  • Connection Timeouts

  • Automatic Decompression

  • Follow Redirects

  • 100% test coverage (Sometimes not).

Requirements

  • Python>=3.6

  • PyPy >=3.6

Install

$ pip install aiosonic

Getting Started

import asyncio
import aiosonic
import json


async def run():
    client = aiosonic.HTTPClient()

    # ##################
    # Sample get request
    # ##################
    response = await client.get('https://www.google.com/')
    assert response.status_code == 200
    assert 'Google' in (await response.text())

    # ##################
    # Post data as multipart form
    # ##################
    url = "https://postman-echo.com/post"
    posted_data = {'foo': 'bar'}
    response = await client.post(url, data=posted_data)

    assert response.status_code == 200
    data = json.loads(await response.content())
    assert data['form'] == posted_data

    # ##################
    # Posted as json
    # ##################
    response = await client.post(url, json=posted_data)

    assert response.status_code == 200
    data = json.loads(await response.content())
    assert data['json'] == posted_data

    # ##################
    # Sample request + timeout
    # ##################
    from aiosonic.timeout import Timeouts
    timeouts = Timeouts(
        sock_read=10,
        sock_connect=3
    )
    response = await client.get('https://www.google.com/', timeouts=timeouts)
    assert response.status_code == 200
    assert 'Google' in (await response.text())
    await client.shutdown()

    print('success')


if __name__ == '__main__':
    loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
    loop.run_until_complete(run())

 "aiosonic": "1000 requests in 182.03 ms",
 "aiosonic cyclic": "1000 requests in 370.55 ms",
 "aiohttp": "1000 requests in 367.66 ms",

}
aiosonic is 101.97% faster than aiohttp
aiosonic is 2434.55% faster than requests
aiosonic is 103.56% faster than aiosonic cyclic
aiosonic is 346.29% faster than httpx

This is a very basic, dummy test, machine dependant. If you look for performance, test and compare your code with this and other packages like aiohttp.

You can perform this test by installing all test dependencies with pip install -e “.[test]” and doing python tests/performance.py in your own machine
