HTTP request/response parser for Python in C under MIT License, based on http-parser from Ryan Dahl.
Project url: https://github.com/benoitc/http-parser/
- Python 2.6 or sup.
- Cython if you need to rebuild the C code
$ pip install http-parserOr install from source:
$ git clone git://github.com/benoitc/http-parser.git
$ cd http-parser && python setup.py installhttp-parser provide you parser.HttpParser low-level parser in C that you can access in your python program and http.HttpStream providing higher-level access to a readable,sequential io.RawIOBase object.
To help you in your day work, http-parser prvides you 3 kind of readers in the reader module: IterReader to read iterables, StringReader to reads strings and StringIO objects, SocketReader to read sockets or objects with the same aî (recv_into needed). You cnan of course use any io.RawIOBase object.
ex:
#!/usr/bin/env python
import socket
from http_parser.http import HttpStream
from http_parser.reader import SocketReader
def main():
s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
try:
s.connect(('gunicorn.org', 80))
s.send("GET / HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: gunicorn.org\r\n\r\n")
r = SocketReader(s)
p = HttpStream(r)
print p.headers()
print p.body_file().read()
finally:
s.close()
if __name__ == "__main__":
main()#!/usr/bin/env python
import socket
from http_parser.parser import HttpParser
def main():
p = HttpParser()
s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
body = []
try:
s.connect(('gunicorn.org', 80))
s.send("GET / HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: gunicorn.org\r\n\r\n")
while True:
data = s.recv(1024)
if not data:
break
recved = len(data)
nparsed = p.execute(data, recved)
assert nparsed == recved
if p.is_headers_complete():
print p.get_headers()
if p.is_partial_body():
body.append(p.recv_body())
if p.is_message_complete():
break
print "".join(body)
finally:
s.close()
if __name__ == "__main__":
main()You can find more docs in the code (or use a doc genererator).
