requests compatibility issues
Seems like most of the API of requests does not work in human_curl
For instance:
import human_curl as requests r = requests.get("https://..." , verify=False) -- rename validate_cert to verify? requests.get("https://..." , verify=False).text -- rename content to text?
I don't watch requests development some of requests features appear early in human_curl. SSL CERT VERIFICATION too. I will think about it.
Another issue is that requests accepts unicode urls. We should try to support that in human_curl as well?
After some time, I change my opinion and think that human_curl need more compitibility with requests.
After a couple of tests the most obvious compatibility issues are
- the unicode support
- post content type (right now it defaults to multipart)
- certificate verification flag naming
Honestly, I would start a discussion with the requests community in order to provide support for pycurl. This way we can have clear API specs and focus on adapters integration. Not to mention the benefits it would have for requests package (improved speed and socks proxy support are worth mentioning).
