A library that makes consuming a RESTful API easier and more convenient

People keep reporting bugs and working on patches. Without our interest and feedback, that’s time and energy lost. I think handing over or closing the project would be a good move at this point.

If a response's content contains Unicode, Slumber will attempt to decode it without specifying an encoding. The lack of an encoding causes an error.

This PR addresses this issue by using an approach similar to that used by requests itself: using request's guess_json_utf() helper to detect which encoding to use, and then specifying the proper encoding to decode().

Hello,

I didn't find any help on the documentation or in the submitted issues about this.

How can I do a request like:

api = slumber.Api()
api.master.object.get.prop.get()

so the api call the URI /master/object/get/prop/ ?

Thanks

The service I use sets the content type header to

application/json; charset=utf-8

This doesn't match any of the serializers, even though it's clearly json and worked before.

This is probably an edge case only I'm hitting - I'm using username+api_key get params to authenticate during a POST. These get garbled in the subsequent GET.

One line fix, but popped a test in anyway.

Sorry for two fixes in single pull request.

PUT and DELETE methods should only send Content-type header if there request has data.

If Location header is not full URL (doesn't start with http/s) it can be passed as id parameter and url_join function will join Location with base_path.

Hello,

is there any plans to update PyPi package since slumber works with Python 3 now? If there is something blocking I'd be happy to help.

Best, Alex.

As we discussed, I think this is a better implementation of files support. I also refactored a bit of repeated code. Let me know what you think. Cheers.

Hi slumber,

I appreciate your library very much but i run into an issue, when i'm requesting a REST-API with an unverified SSL certificate. In the python requests module i have the opportunity set the verify parameter to False. I missed this in your implementation i have created a clone of your project and implemented it myself. If you are interested you can take a look, it wasn't that much work :-)

my clone is here: https://github.com/ceasaro/slumber_clone/commit/f410cfb6a78f6751ef64027a4580ec12133e66aa

kind regard,

Cees van Wieringen.

In the get, put, post, patch methods, the only thing that is returned is the content. What about the headers?

Some APIs respond with info in the headers rather than the body, so this is all lost.

A test is failing in the testsuite:

[    4s] ======================================================================
[    4s] FAIL: test_yaml_get_serializer (tests.serializer.ResourceTestCase)

Could you please help me understand why?

Some APIs require to send data through the HTTP delete request. The slumber doesn't allow this, so I have to use this hack:

        resp = self.api.lists(self.list_id).unsubscribe._request(
            "DELETE",
            data={"email": email},
        )
        if not 200 <= resp.status_code <= 299:
            raise Exception("Not unsubscribed")

Documentation page https://slumber.readthedocs.io/en/v0.6.0/options.html#serializer says that we can define a certain format for each resource, but this was not taken into an account. PR adds this behavior and fixes #131.

The 0.6.0 docs do not include things like how to pass a requests session to the API class. The latest docs are also available on slumber.readthedocs.io, but the v0.6.0 at the bottom left of the page doesn't open the menu to choose latest. On the other hand, the bottom left menu in latest works so that the user can go back to 0.6.0 IMHO maybe just set latest to be the default landing page for the docs, with earlier versions being optional.

Hi,

I have an API url like "https://exmaple.com/api?login". Slumber generates the URL as "https://exmaple.com/api/login" which does not work.

append_slash=False is set.

How can I switch the seperator to "?"?
