Installation ------------ pip install httmock Usage ----- You can use it to mock third-party APIs and test libraries that use `requests` internally, conditionally using mocked replies with the `urlmatch` decorator: ```python from httmock import urlmatch, HTTMock import requests @urlmatch(netloc=r'(.*\.)?google\.com$') def google_mock(url, request): return 'Feeling lucky, punk?' with HTTMock(google_mock): r = requests.get('http://google.com/') print r.content # 'Feeling lucky, punk?' ``` The `all_requests` decorator doesn't conditionally block real requests. If you return a dictionary, it will map to the `requests.Response` object returned: ```python from httmock import all_requests, HTTMock import requests @all_requests def response_content(url, request): return {'status_code': 200, 'content': 'Oh hai'} with HTTMock(response_content): r = requests.get('https://foo_bar') print r.status_code print r.content ``` If you pass in `Set-Cookie` headers, `requests.Response.cookies` will contain the values. You can also use `response` method directly instead of returning a dict: ```python from httmock import all_requests, response, HTTMock import requests @all_requests def response_content(url, request): headers = {'content-type': 'application/json', 'Set-Cookie': 'foo=bar;'} content = {'message': 'API rate limit exceeded'} return response(403, content, headers, None, 5, request) with HTTMock(response_content): r = requests.get('https://api.github.com/users/whatever') print r.json().get('message') print r.cookies['foo'] ```
