To get something from the web:
import aiohttp
import asyncio
async def main():
async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as session:
async with session.get('http://python.org') as response:
print("Status:", response.status)
print("Content-type:", response.headers['content-type'])
html = await response.text()
print("Body:", html[:15], "...")
asyncio.run(main())
This prints:
Status: 200 Content-type: text/html; charset=utf-8 Body: <!doctype html> ...Coming from requests ? Read why we need so many lines.
An example using a simple server:
# examples/server_simple.py from aiohttp import web async def handle(request): name = request.match_info.get('name', "Anonymous") text = "Hello, " + name return web.Response(text=text) async def wshandle(request): ws = web.WebSocketResponse() await ws.prepare(request) async for msg in ws: if msg.type == web.WSMsgType.text: await ws.send_str("Hello, {}".format(msg.data)) elif msg.type == web.WSMsgType.binary: await ws.send_bytes(msg.data) elif msg.type == web.WSMsgType.close: break return ws app = web.Application() app.add_routes([web.get('/', handle), web.get('/echo', wshandle), web.get('/{name}', handle)]) if __name__ == '__main__': web.run_app(app)
