Description-en: Collection of web-related functions for Python (Python 3)
Python module with simple, reusable functions to work with URLs, HTML,
forms, and HTTP, that aren’t found in the Python standard library.
.
This module is used to, for example:
- remove comments, or tags from HTML snippets
- extract base url from HTML snippets
- translate entites on HTML strings
- encoding mulitpart/form-data
- convert raw HTTP headers to dicts and vice-versa
- construct HTTP auth header
- RFC-compliant url joining
- sanitize urls (like browsers do)
- extract arguments from urls
.
The code of w3lib was originally part of the Scrapy framework but was later
stripped out of Scrapy, with the aim of make it more reusable and to provide
a useful library of web functions without depending on Scrapy.
.
This is the Python 3 version of the package.
