hrequestsvshttp-2
hrequests is a feature rich modern replacement for a famous requests library for Python. It provides a feature rich HTTP client capable of resisting popular scraper identification techniques: - Seamless transition between headless browser and http client based requests - Integrated HTML parser - Mimicking of real browser TLS fingerprints - Javascript rendering - HTTP2 support - Realistic browser headers
Pure Ruby, framework and transport agnostic, implementation of HTTP/2 protocol and HPACK header compression with support for:
- Binary framing parsing and encoding
- Stream multiplexing and prioritization
- Connection and stream flow control
- Header compression and server push
- Connection and stream management
- And more... see API docs
Protocol specifications:
- Hypertext Transfer Protocol Version 2 (RFC 7540)
- HPACK: Header Compression for HTTP/2 (RFC 7541)

Example Use
hrequests has almost identical API and UX as requests and here's a quick overview:
```python
import hrequests
# perform HTTP client requests
resp = hrequests.get('https://httpbin.org/html')
print(resp.status_code)
# 200
# use headless browsers and sessions:
session = hrequests.Session('chrome', version=122, os="mac")
# supports asyncio and easy concurrency
requests = [
hrequests.async_get('https://www.google.com/', browser='firefox'),
hrequests.async_get('https://www.duckduckgo.com/'),
hrequests.async_get('https://www.yahoo.com/'),
hrequests.async_get('https://www.httpbin.org/'),
]
responses = hrequests.map(requests, size=3) # max 3 conccurency
```
```ruby
require 'http/2'
# GET request
client = HTTP2::Client.new
response = client.get("https://httpbin.org/get")
puts response.body
# POST reuqest
data = { name: "value" }
response = client.post("https://www.example.com", data)
```
