Primp is a Python HTTP client that impersonates real web browsers by replicating their TLS fingerprints, HTTP/2 settings, and header ordering. It is a lightweight alternative to curl-cffi for bypassing TLS and HTTP fingerprinting-based bot detection.

Key features include:

  • Browser impersonation Can impersonate Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge, and OkHttp clients by replicating their exact TLS fingerprints (JA3/JA4), HTTP/2 frame settings, header ordering, and other connection-level characteristics.
  • HTTP/2 support Full HTTP/2 support with configurable settings that match real browser behavior.
  • Lightweight Smaller and simpler than curl-cffi while providing similar impersonation capabilities. Built on Rust for performance.
  • Familiar API Provides a requests-like API with Session support, making it easy to adopt for developers familiar with the Python requests library.
  • Proxy support HTTP and SOCKS5 proxy support with authentication.
  • Cookie management Automatic cookie handling across requests within a session.

Primp fills a similar niche to curl-cffi and hrequests — HTTP clients designed to avoid TLS/HTTP fingerprinting — but takes a Rust-powered approach for better performance. It is particularly useful when you need to bypass bot detection that relies on connection-level fingerprinting without using a full browser.

Httpful is a simple Http Client library for PHP 7.2+. There is an emphasis of readability, simplicity, and flexibility – basically provide the features and flexibility to get the job done and make those features really easy to use.

Features

  • Readable HTTP Method Support (GET, PUT, POST, DELETE, HEAD, PATCH and OPTIONS)
  • Custom Headers
  • Automatic "Smart" Parsing
  • Automatic Payload Serialization
  • Basic Auth
  • Client Side Certificate Auth
  • Request "Templates"

Example Use


```python import primp # Create a session that impersonates Chrome session = primp.Session(impersonate="chrome_131") # Make requests - TLS fingerprint matches real Chrome response = session.get("https://example.com") print(response.status_code) print(response.text) # POST with JSON data response = session.post( "https://api.example.com/data", json={"key": "value"}, ) # With proxy session = primp.Session( impersonate="firefox_133", proxy="http://user:pass@proxy.example.com:8080", ) response = session.get("https://example.com") # Different browser impersonation profiles for browser in ["chrome_131", "firefox_133", "safari_18", "edge_131"]: session = primp.Session(impersonate=browser) resp = session.get("https://tls.peet.ws/api/all") print(f"{browser}: {resp.json()['ja3_hash']}") ```
```javascript require 'vendor/autoload.php'; use Httpful\Request; // make GET request $response = \Httpful\Request::get("http://httpbin.org/get") ->send(); echo $response->body; // make POST request $data = array('name' => 'Bob', 'age' => 35); $response = \Httpful\Request::post("http://httpbin.org/post") ->sendsJson() ->body(json_encode($data)) ->send(); echo $response->body; // add headers or cookies $response = \Httpful\Request::get("http://httpbin.org/headers") ->addHeader("API-KEY", "mykey") ->addHeader("Cookie", "foo=bar") ->send(); echo $response->body; ```
