UrlRequest
==========

.. versionadded:: 1.0.8

You can use the :class:`UrlRequest` to make asynchronous requests on the
web and get the result when the request is completed. The spirit is the
same as the XHR object in Javascript.

The content is also decoded if the Content-Type is
application/json and the result automatically passed through json.loads.


The syntax to create a request::

    from kivy.network.urlrequest import UrlRequest
    req = UrlRequest(url, on_success, on_redirect, on_failure, on_error,
                     on_progress, req_body, req_headers, chunk_size,
                     timeout, method, decode, debug, file_path, ca_file,
                     verify)


Only the first argument is mandatory: the rest are optional.
By default, a "GET" request will be sent. If the :attr:`UrlRequest.req_body` is
not None, a "POST" request will be sent. It's up to you to adjust
:attr:`UrlRequest.req_headers` to suit your requirements and the response
to the request will be accessible as the parameter called "result" on
the callback function of the on_success event.


Example of fetching JSON::

    def got_json(req, result):
        for key, value in req.resp_headers.items():
            print('{}: {}'.format(key, value))

    req = UrlRequest('https://httpbin.org/headers', got_json)

Example of Posting data (adapted from httplib example)::

    import urllib

    def bug_posted(req, result):
        print('Our bug is posted!')
        print(result)

    params = urllib.urlencode({'@number': 12524, '@type': 'issue',
        '@action': 'show'})
    headers = {'Content-type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded',
              'Accept': 'text/plain'}
    req = UrlRequest('bugs.python.org', on_success=bug_posted, req_body=params,
            req_headers=headers)

If you want a synchronous request, you can call the wait() method.

[docs]class UrlRequestBase(Thread): '''A UrlRequest. See module documentation for usage. .. versionchanged:: 1.5.1 Add `debug` parameter .. versionchanged:: 1.0.10 Add `method` parameter .. versionchanged:: 1.8.0 Parameter `decode` added. Parameter `file_path` added. Parameter `on_redirect` added. Parameter `on_failure` added. .. versionchanged:: 1.9.1 Parameter `ca_file` added. Parameter `verify` added. .. versionchanged:: 1.10.0 Parameters `proxy_host`, `proxy_port` and `proxy_headers` added. .. versionchanged:: 1.11.0 Parameters `on_cancel` added. .. versionchanged:: 2.2.0 Parameters `on_finish` added. Parameters `auth` added. :Parameters: `url`: str Complete url string to call. `on_success`: callback(request, result) Callback function to call when the result has been fetched. `on_redirect`: callback(request, result) Callback function to call if the server returns a Redirect. `on_failure`: callback(request, result) Callback function to call if the server returns a Client or Server Error. `on_error`: callback(request, error) Callback function to call if an error occurs. `on_progress`: callback(request, current_size, total_size) Callback function that will be called to report progression of the download. `total_size` might be -1 if no Content-Length has been reported in the http response. This callback will be called after each `chunk_size` is read. `on_cancel`: callback(request) Callback function to call if user requested to cancel the download operation via the .cancel() method. `on_finish`: callback(request) Additional callback function to call if request is done. `req_body`: str, defaults to None Data to sent in the request. If it's not None, a POST will be done instead of a GET. `req_headers`: dict, defaults to None Custom headers to add to the request. `chunk_size`: int, defaults to 8192 Size of each chunk to read, used only when `on_progress` callback has been set. If you decrease it too much, a lot of on_progress callbacks will be fired and will slow down your download. If you want to have the maximum download speed, increase the chunk_size or don't use ``on_progress``. `timeout`: int, defaults to None If set, blocking operations will timeout after this many seconds. `method`: str, defaults to 'GET' (or 'POST' if ``body`` is specified) The HTTP method to use. `decode`: bool, defaults to True If False, skip decoding of the response. `debug`: bool, defaults to False If True, it will use the Logger.debug to print information about url access/progression/errors. `file_path`: str, defaults to None If set, the result of the UrlRequest will be written to this path instead of in memory. `ca_file`: str, defaults to None Indicates a SSL CA certificate file path to validate HTTPS certificates against `verify`: bool, defaults to True If False, disables SSL CA certificate verification `proxy_host`: str, defaults to None If set, the proxy host to use for this connection. `proxy_port`: int, defaults to None If set, and `proxy_host` is also set, the port to use for connecting to the proxy server. `proxy_headers`: dict, defaults to None If set, and `proxy_host` is also set, the headers to send to the proxy server in the ``CONNECT`` request. `auth`: HTTPBasicAuth, defaults to None If set, request will use basicauth to authenticate.
