Support POST requests

[fakerybakery]

Hi, Amazing service! Thank you so much! Might it be possible to allow POST requests as well?

[garethbjohnson]

Hi, I am glad you like it!

Do you mean requests to add new books to the database? If so, then it would be outside of my intended scope for this project, which is to give the Project Gutenberg catalogue, which is already added to the database without POST requests.

Hi, sorry, I meant the HTTP POST method to query books.

[garethbjohnson]

Hi, OK, why would you like to query with POST? Why not GET?

[fakerybakery]

Hi, it's a bit easier to use for search queries

[garethbjohnson]

Hi again, I find that POST requests already work. Did you mean that you would like to use the request body to filter results instead of query parameters?

[fakerybakery]

Yes, that's what I mean. Not sure if it's too difficult to implement, I could try to make a PR

I tried everything, but unfortunately without success,

import requests

with requests.session() as session:

url = 'https://register.fdsinstitut.com/ext/index.php'

headers = {} cookies = {} donnees = {}

reponse = session.post(url, headers=headers, cookies=cookies, data=donnees)

print(reponse.text)

@herrAlison Is this related to Gutendex?
