快速开始：安装与基础使用

安装Requests

pip install requests

你的第一个HTTP请求

import requests

# 发送GET请求
response = requests.get('https://api.github.com/events')

# 检查状态码
print(f"状态码: {response.status_code}")

# 获取响应内容
print(f"响应内容: {response.text[:100]}...")

# 解析JSON数据
data = response.json()
print(f"事件数量: {len(data)}")

核心功能深度解析

1. 各种HTTP方法的使用

import requests

# GET请求 - 获取资源
response = requests.get('https://httpbin.org/get')

# POST请求 - 创建资源
data = {'key': 'value'}
response = requests.post('https://httpbin.org/post', data=data)

# PUT请求 - 更新资源
response = requests.put('https://httpbin.org/put', data=data)

# DELETE请求 - 删除资源
response = requests.delete('https://httpbin.org/delete')

# HEAD请求 - 获取头部信息
response = requests.head('https://httpbin.org/get')

# OPTIONS请求 - 查询服务器支持的方法
response = requests.options('https://httpbin.org/get')

2. 参数传递与URL编码

import requests

# 查询参数自动编码
params = {
    'key1': 'value1',
    'key2': 'value2',
    'key3': ['value3', 'value4']  # 支持多值参数
}

response = requests.get('https://httpbin.org/get', params=params)
print(f"最终URL: {response.url}")
# 输出: https://httpbin.org/get?key1=value1&key2=value2&key3=value3&key3=value4

3. 请求与响应处理流程

4. 响应内容处理

import requests

response = requests.get('https://api.github.com/events')

# 文本内容（自动解码）
print(response.text)

# 二进制内容
print(response.content)

# JSON内容（自动解析）
data = response.json()
print(data)

# 响应头（不区分大小写）
print(response.headers['content-type'])
print(response.headers.get('Content-Type'))

# 状态码检查
if response.status_code == 200:
    print("请求成功")
else:
    response.raise_for_status()  # 抛出异常

高级特性详解

1. 会话管理（Session）

import requests

# 创建会话对象
with requests.Session() as session:
    # 设置公共头部
    session.headers.update({'User-Agent': 'my-app/1.0.0'})
    
    # 第一次请求（会保存cookies）
    response1 = session.get('https://httpbin.org/cookies/set/sessioncookie/123456789')
    
    # 第二次请求（自动携带cookies）
    response2 = session.get('https://httpbin.org/cookies')
    
    print(response2.json())
    # 输出: {'cookies': {'sessioncookie': '123456789'}}

2. 认证机制

import requests
from requests.auth import HTTPBasicAuth, HTTPDigestAuth

# 基本认证
response = requests.get(
    'https://httpbin.org/basic-auth/user/pass',
    auth=('user', 'pass')  # 简写形式
)

# 或者使用HTTPBasicAuth类
auth = HTTPBasicAuth('user', 'pass')
response = requests.get('https://httpbin.org/basic-auth/user/pass', auth=auth)

# 摘要认证
response = requests.get(
    'https://httpbin.org/digest-auth/auth/user/pass',
    auth=HTTPDigestAuth('user', 'pass')
)

3. 文件上传与下载

import requests

# 文件上传
files = {'file': open('report.xls', 'rb')}
response = requests.post('https://httpbin.org/post', files=files)

# 多文件上传
multiple_files = [
    ('images', ('foo.png', open('foo.png', 'rb'), 'image/png')),
    ('images', ('bar.png', open('bar.png', 'rb'), 'image/png'))
]
response = requests.post('https://httpbin.org/post', files=multiple_files)

# 流式下载大文件
response = requests.get('https://httpbin.org/stream/100', stream=True)
with open('large_file.txt', 'wb') as f:
    for chunk in response.iter_content(chunk_size=8192):
        if chunk:
            f.write(chunk)

4. 超时与重试机制

import requests
from requests.adapters import HTTPAdapter
from requests.packages.urllib3.util.retry import Retry

# 简单超时设置
try:
    response = requests.get('https://httpbin.org/delay/5', timeout=2.5)
except requests.exceptions.Timeout:
    print("请求超时")

# 高级重试配置
retry_strategy = Retry(
    total=3,
    backoff_factor=0.1,
    status_forcelist=[429, 500, 502, 503, 504],
    allowed_methods=["GET", "POST"]
)

adapter = HTTPAdapter(max_retries=retry_strategy)
session = requests.Session()
session.mount("https://", adapter)
session.mount("http://", adapter)

response = session.get("https://httpbin.org/status/500")

实战案例：构建完整的API客户端

import requests
from typing import Dict, Any, Optional
import json

class GitHubAPI:
    def __init__(self, token: str):
        self.base_url = "https://api.github.com"
        self.session = requests.Session()
        self.session.headers.update({
            'Authorization': f'token {token}',
            'Accept': 'application/vnd.github.v3+json',
            'User-Agent': 'My-GitHub-App/1.0.0'
        })
    
    def get_user_info(self, username: str) -> Optional[Dict[str, Any]]:
        """获取用户信息"""
        url = f"{self.base_url}/users/{username}"
        response = self.session.get(url)
        
        if response.status_code == 200:
            return response.json()
        else:
            response.raise_for_status()
    
    def create_repo(self, name: str, description: str = "", private: bool = False) -> Dict[str, Any]:
        """创建仓库"""
        url = f"{self.base_url}/user/repos"
        data = {
            'name': name,
            'description': description,
            'private': private,
            'auto_init': True
        }
        
        response = self.session.post(url, json=data)
        response.raise_for_status()
        return response.json()
    
    def list_issues(self, owner: str, repo: str, state: str = 'open') -> list:
        """列出issues"""
        url = f"{self.base_url}/repos/{owner}/{repo}/issues"
        params = {'state': state}
        
        response = self.session.get(url, params=params)
        response.raise_for_status()
        return response.json()

# 使用示例
if __name__ == "__main__":
    # 替换为你的GitHub token
    github = GitHubAPI("your_github_token")
    
    # 获取用户信息
    user_info = github.get_user_info("octocat")
    print(f"用户: {user_info['login']}")
    
    # 创建仓库
    repo = github.create_repo("my-new-repo", "A test repository")
    print(f"创建仓库: {repo['html_url']}")
    
    # 列出issues
    issues = github.list_issues("octocat", "hello-world")
    print(f"找到 {len(issues)} 个issue")

性能优化与最佳实践

1. 连接池管理

import requests
from requests.adapters import HTTPAdapter

# 配置连接池
session = requests.Session()

# 创建适配器并配置连接池
adapter = HTTPAdapter(
    pool_connections=10,    # 连接池数量
    pool_maxsize=100,       # 最大连接数
    max_retries=3,          # 重试次数
    pool_block=True         # 连接池满时阻塞
)

# 挂载适配器
session.mount('http://', adapter)
session.mount('https://', adapter)

# 使用配置好的会话
for i in range(20):
    response = session.get(f'https://httpbin.org/get?request={i}')
    print(f"请求 {i}: {response.status_code}")

2. 批量请求处理

import requests
from concurrent.futures import ThreadPoolExecutor, as_completed

def fetch_url(url):
    """获取单个URL"""
    try:
        response = requests.get(url, timeout=10)
        return url, response.status_code, response.text[:100]
    except Exception as e:
        return url, None, str(e)

# 批量处理URLs
urls = [
    'https://httpbin.org/get',
    'https://httpbin.org/ip',
    'https://httpbin.org/user-agent',
    'https://httpbin.org/headers'
]

# 使用线程池并发请求
with ThreadPoolExecutor(max_workers=4) as executor:
    future_to_url = {executor.submit(fetch_url, url): url for url in urls}
    
    for future in as_completed(future_to_url):
        url = future_to_url[future]
        try:
            result = future.result()
            print(f"URL: {result[0]}, 状态码: {result[1]}")
        except Exception as exc:
            print(f'{url} 生成异常: {exc}')

3. 错误处理与重试策略

import requests
import time
from typing import Callable

def retry_request(
    request_func: Callable,
    max_retries: int = 3,
    backoff_factor: float = 0.1,
    retry_codes: list = [429, 500, 502, 503, 504]
) -> requests.Response:
    """带重试机制的请求函数"""
    for attempt in range(max_retries):
        try:
            response = request_func()
            
            # 检查是否需要重试
            if response.status_code in retry_codes:
                if attempt < max_retries - 1:
                    sleep_time = backoff_factor * (2 ** attempt)
                    time.sleep(sleep_time)
                    continue
            
            return response
            
        except (requests.exceptions.ConnectionError, 
                requests.exceptions.Timeout) as e:
            if attempt < max_retries - 1:
                sleep_time = backoff_factor * (2 ** attempt)
                time.sleep(sleep_time)
                continue
            else:
                raise e
    
    raise requests.exceptions.RetryError("超过最大重试次数")

# 使用示例
def make_request():
    return requests.get('https://httpbin.org/status/500')

try:
    response = retry_request(make_request, max_retries=5)
    print(f"最终状态码: {response.status_code}")
except Exception as e:
    print(f"请求失败: {e}")

常见问题与解决方案

1. SSL证书验证问题

import requests
import ssl

# 禁用SSL验证（不推荐生产环境使用）
response = requests.get('https://expired.badssl.com/', verify=False)

# 使用自定义CA证书
response = requests.get('https://example.com', verify='/path/to/cert.pem')

# 忽略特定主机名的证书验证
session = requests.Session()
session.verify = False  # 全局禁用

# 或者为特定请求禁用
response = session.get('https://example.com', verify=False)

2. 网络代理设置

import requests

# 网络代理
proxies = {
    'http': 'http://10.10.1.10:3128',
    'https': 'http://10.10.1.10:1080',
}

# SOCKS代理
proxies = {
    'http': 'socks5://user:pass@host:port',
    'https': 'socks5://user:pass@host:port'
}

response = requests.get('http://example.org', proxies=proxies)

# 会话级别的代理设置
session = requests.Session()
session.proxies.update(proxies)

3. 自定义头部与User-Agent

import requests

headers = {
    'User-Agent': 'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36',
    'Accept': 'application/json',
    'Accept-Language': 'en-US,en;q=0.9',
    'Referer': 'https://example.com',
}

# 单个请求的头部
response = requests.get('https://httpbin.org/headers', headers=headers)

# 会话级别的头部
session = requests.Session()
session.headers.update(headers)
