python-RestClient

RestClient

RestClient is an open source script that depends on requests library (http://docs.python-requests.org/en/latest/) it was developed in 2012 and updated in 2014 by @Khalid Al-hussayen the script was used for my owen projects so it is limited to my use any one is welcome to update and fix the script.

How to use

You first need to install requests library

pip install requests

Then you can use the script

example

from restClient import RestClient
res = RestClient()
res.host = '127.0.0.1:8080/'
res.resourse = 'resource' # the url will be 127.0.0.1:8080/resource

Then you can apply basic http methods like GET,POST etc... if you want to use GET :

res.get()
#if you want to put extrat url to the resourcr
res.get(append_url='/append')
#if you want to use basic auth
res.username = 'username'
res.password = 'password'
res.get(is_auth=True)
#if you want the responce 
res.responce.text
#if you want responce as json 
res.responce.json()
#status code
res.responce.status_code

to use post

body = {'key':'value','key':'value'}
res.post(params=body,is_auth=True)

responce is an requests responce object for more information how to use responce see http://docs.python-requests.org/en/latest/user/quickstart/#response-content
