Core HTTP shared client library for Python

corehttp provides shared exceptions and modules for Python SDK client libraries.

Getting started

Typically, you will not need to install corehttp, as it will be installed when you install one of the client libraries using it.

Transports

To use corehttp, you will need to choose a transport implementation. corehttp provides the following transports:

Synchronous transports:

  • RequestsTransport - A synchronous transport based on the Requests library.

  • HttpXTransport - An synchronous transport based on the HTTPX library.

Asynchronous transports:

  • AioHttpTransport - An asynchronous transport based on the aiohttp library.

  • AsyncHttpXTransport - An asynchronous transport based on the HTTPX library.

Each transport has its own dependencies, which you can install using the corehttp extras:

# Install individually.
pip install corehttp[requests]
pip install corehttp[aiohttp]
pip install corehttp[httpx]

# Install multiple.
pip install corehttp[requests,httpx]

If no transports are specified, corehttp will default to using RequestsTransport for synchronous pipeline requests and AioHttpTransport for asynchronous pipeline requests.
