rfc9110 obsoletes the earlier rfc 7231. This document also includes some status codes that were previously only used for WebDAV and assigns more generic names to these status codes. ref: https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9110.html#name-changes-from-rfc-7231 - http.HTTPStatus.CONTENT_TOO_LARGE (413, previously REQUEST_ENTITY_TOO_LARGE) - http.HTTPStatus.URI_TOO_LONG (414, previously REQUEST_URI_TOO_LONG) - http.HTTPStatus.RANGE_NOT_SATISFYABLE (416, previously REQUEST_RANGE_NOT_SATISFYABLE) - http.HTTPStatus.UNPROCESSABLE_CONTENT (422, previously UNPROCESSABLE_ENTITY) The new constants are added to http.HTTPStatus and the old constant names are preserved for backwards compatibility. References in documentation to the obsoleted rfc 7231 are updated

:mod:`http` --- HTTP modules
|
|
============================
|
|
|
|
.. module:: http
|
|
:synopsis: HTTP status codes and messages
|
|
|
|
**Source code:** :source:`Lib/http/__init__.py`
|
|
|
|
.. index::
|
|
pair: HTTP; protocol
|
|
single: HTTP; http (standard module)
|
|
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
:mod:`http` is a package that collects several modules for working with the
|
|
HyperText Transfer Protocol:
|
|
|
|
* :mod:`http.client` is a low-level HTTP protocol client; for high-level URL
|
|
opening use :mod:`urllib.request`
|
|
* :mod:`http.server` contains basic HTTP server classes based on :mod:`socketserver`
|
|
* :mod:`http.cookies` has utilities for implementing state management with cookies
|
|
* :mod:`http.cookiejar` provides persistence of cookies
|
|
|
|
|
|
The :mod:`http` module also defines the following enums that help you work with http related code:
|
|
|
|
.. class:: HTTPStatus
|
|
|
|
.. versionadded:: 3.5
|
|
|
|
A subclass of :class:`enum.IntEnum` that defines a set of HTTP status codes,
|
|
reason phrases and long descriptions written in English.
|
|
|
|
Usage::
|
|
|
|
>>> from http import HTTPStatus
|
|
>>> HTTPStatus.OK
|
|
HTTPStatus.OK
|
|
>>> HTTPStatus.OK == 200
|
|
True
|
|
>>> HTTPStatus.OK.value
|
|
200
|
|
>>> HTTPStatus.OK.phrase
|
|
'OK'
|
|
>>> HTTPStatus.OK.description
|
|
'Request fulfilled, document follows'
|
|
>>> list(HTTPStatus)
|
|
[HTTPStatus.CONTINUE, HTTPStatus.SWITCHING_PROTOCOLS, ...]

======= =================================== ==================================================================
|
|
|
|
In order to preserve backwards compatibility, enum values are also present
|
|
in the :mod:`http.client` module in the form of constants. The enum name is
|
|
equal to the constant name (i.e. ``http.HTTPStatus.OK`` is also available as
|
|
``http.client.OK``).
|
|
|
|
.. versionchanged:: 3.7
|
|
Added ``421 MISDIRECTED_REQUEST`` status code.
|
|
|
|
.. versionadded:: 3.8
|
|
Added ``451 UNAVAILABLE_FOR_LEGAL_REASONS`` status code.
|
|
|
|
.. versionadded:: 3.9
|
|
Added ``103 EARLY_HINTS``, ``418 IM_A_TEAPOT`` and ``425 TOO_EARLY`` status codes.
|
|
|
|
.. versionchanged:: 3.13
|
|
Implemented RFC9110 naming for status constants. Old constant names are preserved for
|
|
backwards compatibility.
