| 1 | +# Using your Client's `send_request` Method |
| 2 | + |
| 3 | +In this doc, we will be showing how to build your own ***http requests*** and how to send these requests directly to the service using the ***send_request*** method. |
| 4 | + |
| 5 | +Here's how to get started: |
| 6 | + |
| 7 | +```python |
| 8 | +>>> from azure.identity import DefaultAzureCredential |
| 9 | +>>> from azure.example.service import ExampleClient |
| 10 | +>>> from azure.core.rest import HttpRequest, HttpResponse |
| 11 | +>>> client = ExampleClient(endpoint="https://www.example.org/", credential=DefaultAzureCredential()) |
| 12 | +>>> request = HttpRequest(method="GET", url="https://www.example.org") |
| 13 | +>>> request |
| 14 | +<HttpRequest [GET], url: "https://www.example.org"> |
| 15 | +>>> response = client.send_request(request) |
| 16 | +>>> response |
| 17 | +<HttpResponse: 200 OK, Content-Type: text/plain> |
| 18 | +>>> response.raise_for_status() |
| 19 | +>>> response.text() |
| 20 | +'Happy to see you!' |
| 21 | +``` |
| 22 | + |
| 23 | +## Code Snippets |
| 24 | + |
| 25 | +**End-to-end code snippets for creating and sending requests with `send_request`**: |
| 26 | + |
| 27 | +1. [Sync client](#sync-client) |
| 28 | +2. [Async client](#async-client) |
| 29 | + |
| 30 | +## Steps To Make a Call |
| 31 | + |
| 32 | +1. [Create a request](#1-create-a-request "Create a Request") |
| 33 | +2. [Send the request](#2-send-the-request "Send the Request") |
| 34 | +3. [Handle the response](#3-handle-the-response "Handle the Response") |
| 35 | + |
| 36 | +We will go into each step in the following sections. To initialize and authenticate your client, please follow your client's README examples. |
| 37 | + |
| 38 | +## 1. Create a Request |
| 39 | + |
| 40 | +First, we will go over how to create the [`HttpRequest`][azure_core_http_request] you want to be sent to the service. |
| 41 | + |
| 42 | +We will be making a `POST` request with a `JSON` body. The following code snippet uses a relative url, which will be relative |
| 43 | +to your client's `endpoint`. You can also pass in a full-path url, and we will honor that full path. |
| 44 | + |
| 45 | +```python |
| 46 | +from azure.core.rest import HttpRequest |
| 47 | + |
| 48 | +# this URL is relative to the endpoint we passed our client |
| 49 | +request = HttpRequest( |
| 50 | + method="POST", |
| 51 | + url="/helloWorld", |
| 52 | + json={"document": "Hello world!"}, |
| 53 | + params={"language": "en"} |
| 54 | +) |
| 55 | +``` |
| 56 | + |
| 57 | +## 2. Send the Request |
| 58 | + |
| 59 | +Now, we pass this request to your client's `send_request` method. This actually makes the network call. |
| 60 | + |
| 61 | +```python |
| 62 | +from azure.example.service import ExampleClient |
| 63 | + |
| 64 | +response = client.send_request(request) # makes the network call |
| 65 | +``` |
| 66 | + |
| 67 | +## 3. Handle the Response |
| 68 | + |
| 69 | +Our `send_request` call returns an [`HttpResponse`][azure_core_http_response]. |
| 70 | + |
| 71 | +### Error handling |
| 72 | + |
| 73 | +The response you get back from `send_request` will not automatically raise if your response is an error. |
| 74 | +If you wish to raise an error if your response is bad, call [`.raise_for_status()`][azure_core_raise_for_status] on your returned |
| 75 | +response. |
| 76 | + |
| 77 | +```python |
| 78 | +try: |
| 79 | + response.raise_for_status() # raises an error if your response is not good |
| 80 | +except HttpResponseError as e: |
| 81 | + print(str(e)) |
| 82 | +``` |
| 83 | + |
| 84 | +### JSON response |
| 85 | + |
| 86 | +If the response you get back should be a `json` object, you can call `.json()` on your response |
| 87 | +to get it `json`-deserialized. |
| 88 | + |
| 89 | +Putting this all together, see our code snippets for how you can deal with your response object |
| 90 | + |
| 91 | +```python |
| 92 | + |
| 93 | +response = client.send_request(request) |
| 94 | +try: |
| 95 | + response.raise_for_status() # raises an error if your response is not good |
| 96 | + json_response = response.json() # get your response as a json object |
| 97 | + # Now play with your JSON response! |
| 98 | + |
| 99 | +except HttpResponseError as e: |
| 100 | + print(str(e)) |
| 101 | +``` |
| 102 | + |
| 103 | +## Examples |
| 104 | + |
| 105 | +### Sync Client |
| 106 | + |
| 107 | +```python |
| 108 | +from azure.identity import DefaultAzureCredential |
| 109 | +from azure.example.service import ExampleClient |
| 110 | +from azure.core.rest import HttpRequest, HttpResponse |
| 111 | +from azure.core.exceptions import HttpResponseError |
| 112 | + |
| 113 | +client = ExampleClient( |
| 114 | + endpoint="https://example.org", |
| 115 | + credential=DefaultAzureCredential() |
| 116 | +) |
| 117 | + |
| 118 | +request = HttpRequest( |
| 119 | + method="POST", |
| 120 | + url="/helloWorld", |
| 121 | + json={"document": "Hello world!"}, |
| 122 | + params={"language": "en"} |
| 123 | +) |
| 124 | + |
| 125 | +response = client.send_request(request) # returns an azure.core.rest.HttpResponse |
| 126 | + |
| 127 | +try: |
| 128 | + response.raise_for_status() |
| 129 | + json_response = response.json() |
| 130 | + # Play with your response! |
| 131 | + print(json_response["language"]) |
| 132 | +except HttpResponseError: |
| 133 | + print(str(e)) |
| 134 | +``` |
| 135 | + |
| 136 | +### Async Client |
| 137 | + |
| 138 | +```python |
| 139 | +from azure.identity.aio import DefaultAzureCredential |
| 140 | +from azure.example.service.aio import ExampleClient |
| 141 | +from azure.core.rest import HttpRequest, AsyncHttpResponse |
| 142 | +from azure.core.exceptions import HttpResponseError |
| 143 | + |
| 144 | +request = HttpRequest( |
| 145 | + method="POST", |
| 146 | + url="/helloWorld", |
| 147 | + json={"document": "Hello world!"}, |
| 148 | + params={"language": "en"} |
| 149 | +) |
| 150 | + |
| 151 | +with DefaultAzureCredential() as credential: |
| 152 | + with ExampleClient(endpoint="https://example.org", credential=credential) as client: |
| 153 | + response = await client.send_request(request) |
| 154 | + |
| 155 | + try: |
| 156 | + response.raise_for_status() |
| 157 | + await response.load_body() |
| 158 | + json_response = response.json() # returns an azure.core.rest.AsyncHttpResponse |
| 159 | + # Play with your response! |
| 160 | + print(json_response["language"]) |
| 161 | + except HttpResponseError: |
| 162 | + print(str(e)) |
| 163 | +``` |
| 164 | + |
| 165 | +## Troubleshooting |
| 166 | + |
| 167 | +### Errors |
| 168 | + |
| 169 | +All errors thrown by `.raise_for_error()` are [exceptions defined in `azure-core`][azure_core_exceptions]. |
| 170 | + |
| 171 | +### Logging |
| 172 | + |
| 173 | +Our clients also have logging support. They use the standard |
| 174 | +[logging][python_logging] library for logging. |
| 175 | +Basic information about HTTP sessions (URLs, headers, etc.) is logged at INFO |
| 176 | +level. |
| 177 | + |
| 178 | +Detailed DEBUG level logging, including request/response bodies and un-redacted |
| 179 | +headers, can be enabled on a client with the `logging_enable` keyword argument. |
| 180 | + |
| 181 | +```python |
| 182 | +from azure.identity import DefaultAzureCredential |
| 183 | +from azure.example.service import ExampleClient |
| 184 | + |
| 185 | +client = ExampleClient( |
| 186 | + endpoint="https://example.org", |
| 187 | + credential=DefaultAzureCredential(), |
| 188 | + logging_enable=True |
| 189 | +) |
| 190 | +``` |
