HTTPX2 is a fully featured HTTP client library for Python, maintained by Pydantic as a continuation of HTTPX. It offers sync and async APIs, HTTP/1.1 and HTTP/2 support, a requests-compatible interface, and an integrated command-line client.
Use cases
- make http requests in python
- call rest apis from python
- async http client for python
- migrate from requests to a maintained http client
- test wsgi or asgi apps with a real client
- send http requests from the command line
When to choose
- you need a maintained, security-patched successor to HTTPX
- you want requests-like ergonomics with async and HTTP/2 support
- you need to test ASGI/WSGI applications directly
When to avoid
- you are happy with HTTPX or aiohttp and don't need a new steward
- you need a minimal dependency-free client like urllib
