Name        : python-requests
Product     : Fedora 22
Version     : 2.5.3
Release     : 2.fc22
URL         : http://pypi.python.org/pypi/requests
Summary     : HTTP library, written in Python, for human beings
Description :
Most existing Python modules for sending HTTP requests are extremely verbose and
cumbersome. Python’s built-in urllib2 module provides most of the HTTP
capabilities you should need, but the API is thoroughly broken. This library is
designed to make HTTP requests easy for developers.
