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, multiplexed=False)

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 neither does it issue multiplexed/concurrent request.

Parameters:

• method (str)

• url (str)

• body (bytes | IO[Any] | Iterable[bytes] | Iterable[str] | str | LowLevelResponse | AsyncLowLevelResponse | None)

• fields (Sequence[Tuple[str, str | bytes | Tuple[str, str | bytes] | Tuple[str, str | bytes, str]] | RequestField] | Mapping[str, str | bytes | Tuple[str, str | bytes] | Tuple[str, str | bytes, str]] | None)

• headers (Mapping[str, str] | None)

• preload_content (bool | None)

• decode_content (bool | None)

• redirect (bool | None)

• retries (Retry | bool | int | None)

• timeout (Timeout | float | int | None)

• json (Any | None)

• multiplexed (bool)

Return type:

HTTPResponse
