Integrations¶

ScraperWiki¶

ScraperWiki is an excellent service that allows you to run Python, Ruby, and PHP scraper scripts on the web. Now, Requests v0.6.1 is available to use in your scrapers!

To give it a try, simply:

import requests

Managed Packages¶

Requests is available in a number of popular package formats. Of course, the ideal way to install Requests is via The Cheeseshop.

Ubuntu & Debian¶

Requests is available installed as a Debian package! Debian Etch Ubuntu, since Oneiric:

$ apt-get install python-requests

Unfortunately, the most recent version available is v0.5.0. If you’re on the Debian Python Package team, I’d love an update of that :)

$ yum install python-requests
