Async http client/server framework (asyncio)
Project description
Async http client/server framework
Key Features
Supports both client and server side of HTTP protocol.
Supports both client and server Web-Sockets out-of-the-box and avoids Callback Hell.
Provides Web-server with middlewares and pluggable routing.
Getting started
Client
To get something from the web:
import aiohttp
import asyncio
async def fetch(session, url):
async with session.get(url) as response:
return await response.text()
async def main():
async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as session:
html = await fetch(session, 'http://python.org')
print(html)
if __name__ == '__main__':
loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
loop.run_until_complete(main())Server
An example using a simple server:
# examples/server_simple.py
from aiohttp import web
async def handle(request):
name = request.match_info.get('name', "Anonymous")
text = "Hello, " + name
return web.Response(text=text)
async def wshandle(request):
ws = web.WebSocketResponse()
await ws.prepare(request)
async for msg in ws:
if msg.type == web.WSMsgType.text:
await ws.send_str("Hello, {}".format(msg.data))
elif msg.type == web.WSMsgType.binary:
await ws.send_bytes(msg.data)
elif msg.type == web.WSMsgType.close:
break
return ws
app = web.Application()
app.add_routes([web.get('/', handle),
web.get('/echo', wshandle),
web.get('/{name}', handle)])
if __name__ == '__main__':
web.run_app(app)Documentation

Changelog
3.6.1 (2019-09-19)
Features
Compatibility with Python 3.8. #4056
Bugfixes
Improved Documentation
Provide pytest-aiohttp namespace for pytest fixtures in docs. #3723
3.6.0 (2019-09-06)
Features
Add support for Named Pipes (Site and Connector) under Windows. This feature requires Proactor event loop to work. #3629
Removed Transfer-Encoding: chunked header from websocket responses to be compatible with more http proxy servers. #3798
Accept non-GET request for starting websocket handshake on server side. #3980
Bugfixes
Raise a ClientResponseError instead of an AssertionError for a blank HTTP Reason Phrase. #3532
Fix an issue where cookies would sometimes not be set during a redirect. #3576
Change normalize_path_middleware to use 308 redirect instead of 301.
This behavior should prevent clients from being unable to use PUT/POST methods on endpoints that are redirected because of a trailing slash. #3579
Drop the processed task from all_tasks() list early. It prevents logging about a task with unhandled exception when the server is used in conjunction with asyncio.run(). #3587

Use sanitized URL as Location header in redirects #3614
Improve typing annotations for multipart.py along with changes required by mypy in files that references multipart.py. #3621
Close session created inside aiohttp.request when unhandled exception occurs #3628
Cleanup per-chunk data in generic data read. Memory leak fixed. #3631
Use correct type for add_view and family #3633
Fix _keepalive field in __slots__ of RequestHandler. #3644
Properly handle ConnectionResetError, to silence the “Cannot write to closing transport” exception when clients disconnect uncleanly. #3648
Suppress pytest warnings due to test_utils classes #3660
Fix overshadowing of overlapped sub-application prefixes. #3701
Fixed return type annotation for WSMessage.json() #3720
Properly expose TooManyRedirects publicly as documented. #3818
Fix missing brackets for IPv6 in proxy CONNECT request #3841
Make the signature of aiohttp.test_utils.TestClient.request match asyncio.ClientSession.request according to the docs #3852
Use correct style for re-exported imports, makes mypy --strict mode happy. #3868
Fixed type annotation for add_view method of UrlDispatcher to accept any subclass of View #3880
Made cython HTTP parser set Reason-Phrase of the response to an empty string if it is missing. #3906
Add URL to the string representation of ClientResponseError. #3959
Accept istr keys in LooseHeaders type hints. #3976
Fixed race conditions in _resolve_host caching and throttling when tracing is enabled. #4013
For URLs like “unix://localhost/…” set Host HTTP header to “localhost” instead of “localhost:None”. #4039
Improved Documentation
Modify documentation for Background Tasks to remove deprecated usage of event loop. #3526
use if __name__ == '__main__': in server examples. #3775
Update documentation reference to the default access logger. #3783
Improve documentation for web.BaseRequest.path and web.BaseRequest.raw_path. #3791
Removed deprecation warning in tracing example docs #3964
3.5.4 (2019-01-12)
Bugfixes
Fix stream .read() / .readany() / .iter_any() which used to return a partial content only in case of compressed content #3525
3.5.3 (2019-01-10)
Bugfixes
Fix type stubs for aiohttp.web.run_app(access_log=True) and fix edge case of access_log=True and the event loop being in debug mode. #3504
Fix aiohttp.ClientTimeout type annotations to accept None for fields #3511
Send custom per-request cookies even if session jar is empty #3515
Restore Linux binary wheels publishing on PyPI

Fix Payload Content-Disposition header reset after initial creation. #3035
Log suppressed exceptions in GunicornWebWorker. #3464
Remove wildcard imports. #3468
Use the same task for app initialization and web server handling in gunicorn workers. It allows to use Python3.7 context vars smoothly. #3471
Fix handling of chunked+gzipped response when first chunk does not give uncompressed data #3477
Replace collections.MutableMapping with collections.abc.MutableMapping to avoid a deprecation warning. #3480
Payload.size type annotation changed from Optional[float] to Optional[int]. #3484
Ignore done tasks when cancels pending activities on web.run_app finalization. #3497

Misc
3.5.1 (2018-12-24)
Fix a regression about ClientSession._requote_redirect_url modification in debug mode.
3.5.0 (2018-12-22)
Features
The library type annotations are checked in strict mode now.
Add support for setting cookies for individual request (#2387)
Application.add_domain implementation (#2809)
The default app in the request returned by test_utils.make_mocked_request can now have objects assigned to it and retrieved using the [] operator. (#3174)
Make request.url accessible when transport is closed. (#3177)
Add zlib_executor_size argument to Response constructor to allow compression to run in a background executor to avoid blocking the main thread and potentially triggering health check failures. (#3205)
Enable users to set ClientTimeout in aiohttp.request (#3213)
Don’t raise a warning if NETRC environment variable is not set and ~/.netrc file doesn’t exist. (#3267)
Add default logging handler to web.run_app
If the Application.debug flag is set and the default logger aiohttp.access is used, access logs will now be output using a stderr StreamHandler if no handlers are attached. Furthermore, if the default logger has no log level set, the log level will be set to DEBUG. (#3324)
Add method argument to session.ws_connect().
Sometimes server API requires a different HTTP method for WebSocket connection establishment.
For example, Docker exec needs POST. (#3378)
Create a task per request handling. (#3406)
Bugfixes
Enable passing access_log_class via handler_args (#3158)
Return empty bytes with end-of-chunk marker in empty stream reader. (#3186)
Accept CIMultiDictProxy instances for headers argument in web.Response constructor. (#3207)
Don’t uppercase HTTP method in parser (#3233)
Make method match regexp RFC-7230 compliant (#3235)
Add app.pre_frozen state to properly handle startup signals in sub-applications. (#3237)
Enhanced parsing and validation of helpers.BasicAuth.decode. (#3239)
Change imports from collections module in preparation for 3.8. (#3258)
Ensure Host header is added first to ClientRequest to better replicate browser (#3265)
Fix forward compatibility with Python 3.8: importing ABCs directly from the collections module will not be supported anymore. (#3273)
Keep the query string by normalize_path_middleware. (#3278)
Fix missing parameter raise_for_status for aiohttp.request() (#3290)
Bracket IPv6 addresses in the HOST header (#3304)
Fix default message for server ping and pong frames. (#3308)
Fix tests/test_connector.py typo and tests/autobahn/server.py duplicate loop def. (#3337)
Fix false-negative indicator end_of_HTTP_chunk in StreamReader.readchunk function (#3361)
Release HTTP response before raising status exception (#3364)
Fix task cancellation when sendfile() syscall is used by static file handling. (#3383)
Fix stack trace for asyncio.TimeoutError which was not logged, when it is caught in the handler. (#3414)
Improved Documentation
Deprecations and Removals

Deprecate stream.unread_data() (#3260)
Deprecated use of boolean in resp.enable_compression() (#3318)
Encourage creation of aiohttp public objects inside a coroutine (#3331)
