  • requests

    A simple, yet elegant, HTTP library.

  • Project mention: Revived the promise made six years ago for Requests 3 | dev.to | 2024-04-02

    For many years now, Requests has been frozen. Being left in a vegetative state and not evolving, this blocked millions of developers from using more advanced features.

  • trackerslist

  • Project mention: pyaction 4.30.0 Released | dev.to | 2024-05-17

    This Docker image is designed to support implementing Github Actions with Python. As of version 4.0.0., it starts with the official python docker image as the base which is a Debian OS. It specifically uses python:3-slim to keep the image size down for faster loading of Github Actions that use pyaction. On top of the base, we've installed curl, gpg, git, and the GitHub CLI. We added curl and gpg because they are needed to install the GitHub CLI, and they may come in handy anyway (especially curl) when implementing a GitHub Action.

  • aria2

    aria2 is a lightweight multi-protocol & multi-source, cross platform download utility operated in command-line. It supports HTTP/HTTPS, FTP, SFTP, BitTorrent and Metalink.

  • Project mention: Bypass download limits? | /r/Piracy | 2023-12-09

    For sites with limited download speeds I usually use aria2 (via terminal) since it supports segmented/multi connection downloading. But I guess this wouldn't work with 1fichier, since with these sites you usually don't get direct link to the file and/or sites like these limit the number of parallel connections. I also used it for torrents for a while, but I wouldn't recommend doing this anymore.

  • window.fetch polyfill

    A window.fetch JavaScript polyfill.

  • Project mention: How do I detect requests initiated by the new fetch standard? How should I detect an AJAX request in general? | /r/codehunter | 2023-07-02

    Most js libraries use XMLHttpRequest and so provide HTTP_X_REQUESTED_WITH: XMLHttpRequest, but neither Chrome's implementation nor Github's polyfill of the new fetch uses a similar header. So how can one detect that the request is AJAX?

  • request

    🏊🏾 Simplified HTTP request client.

  • Project mention: How to Create a Real-time Public Transportation Schedule App | dev.to | 2024-03-01

    They use (uWebSockets)[https://github.com/uNetworking/uWebSockets], which was written in C++, but has an interface to use in NodeJS. It's been really performant for me in my simple tests compared to other popular websocket libs that slow down fairly quickly.
