Thank you for your interest. Could you specify a bit more of context for the kind of example you would like ?

I can't quite grasp the current usecase, so i would like to see how a client and a server would respond to each other. With an clear implementation of the server the usecase of the client would be more obvious, i hope.

This module is essentially a wrapper for common network mechanisms (HTTP, IRC, ...) aimed to program clients more conveniently (typically with very few lines). If you did not take a look at the documentation, you can find it here. For a few use cases, please check the examples provided with the documentation, especially this. If you still have questions, I can provide you some other simple examples.

As an additional information, a very simple example :

• In a terminal, run (from a folder where there are some files):

python -m SimpleHTTPServer

• In another terminal, run this script to download all the resources:

from pybots import HTTPBot

with HTTPBot("localhost") as bot:
     bot.get()
     for link in bot.soup.find_all("a"):
         bot.retrieve(link.attrs['href'])

Thanks, I've missed the part on read-the-docs indeed. Thanks for the heads-up.

You're welcome ! ;-)
