Similarly to the urllib_ Python module, PycURL can be used to fetch objects identified by a URL from a Python program. Beyond simple fetches however PycURL exposes most of the functionality of libcurl, including: - Speed - libcurl is very fast and PycURL, being a thin wrapper above libcurl, is very fast as well. PycURL `was benchmarked`_ to be several times faster than requests_. - Features including multiple protocol support, SSL, authentication and proxy options. PycURL supports most of libcurl's callbacks. - Multi_ and share_ interfaces. - Sockets used for network operations, permitting integration of PycURL into the application's I/O loop (e.g., using Tornado_). .. _was benchmarked: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15461995/python-requests-vs-pycurl-performance .. _requests: http://python-requests.org/ .. _Multi: https://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/libcurl-multi.html .. _share: https://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/libcurl-share.html .. _Tornado: http://www.tornadoweb.org/ Requirements ------------ - Python 3.5-3.10. - libcurl 7.19.0 or better. Installation ------------ Download the source distribution from `PyPI`_. Please see `the installation documentation`_ for installation instructions. .. _PyPI: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pycurl .. _the installation documentation: http://pycurl.io/docs/latest/install.html Documentation ------------- Documentation for the most recent PycURL release is available on `PycURL website <http://pycurl.io/docs/latest/>`_. Support ------- For support questions please use `curl-and-python mailing list`_. `Mailing list archives`_ are available for your perusal as well. Although not an official support venue, `Stack Overflow`_ has been popular with some PycURL users. Bugs can be reported `via GitHub`_. Please use GitHub only for bug reports and direct questions to our mailing list instead. .. _curl-and-python mailing list: http://cool.haxx.se/mailman/listinfo/curl-and-python .. _Stack Overflow: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/pycurl .. _Mailing list archives: https://curl.haxx.se/mail/list.cgi?list=curl-and-python .. _via GitHub: https://github.com/pycurl/pycurl/issues License ------- PycURL is dual licensed under the LGPL and an MIT/X derivative license based on the libcurl license.
