urllib3.request()

urllib3.request(method, url, *, body=None, fields=None, headers=None, preload_content=True, decode_content=True, redirect=True, retries=None, timeout=3, json=None)

A convenience, top-level request method. It uses a module-global PoolManager instance. Therefore, its side effects could be shared across dependencies relying on it. To avoid side effects create a new PoolManager instance and use it instead. The method does not accept low-level **urlopen_kw keyword arguments.

Parameters

• method (str) –

• url (str) –

• body (Optional[Union[bytes, IO[Any], Iterable[bytes], str]]) –

• fields (Optional[Union[Sequence[Union[Tuple[str, Union[str, bytes, Tuple[str, Union[str, bytes]], Tuple[str, Union[str, bytes], str]]], RequestField]], Mapping[str, Union[str, bytes, Tuple[str, Union[str, bytes]], Tuple[str, Union[str, bytes], str]]]]]) –

• headers (Optional[Mapping[str, str]]) –

• preload_content (bool | None) –

• decode_content (bool | None) –

• redirect (bool | None) –

• retries (urllib3.util.retry.Retry | bool | int | None) –
