# Requests
**Requests** is a simple, yet elegant, HTTP library.
```python >>> import requests >>> r = requests.get('https://httpbin.org/basic-auth/user/pass', auth=('user', 'pass')) >>> r.status_code 200 >>> r.headers['content-type'] 'application/json; charset=utf8' >>> r.encoding 'utf-8' >>> r.text '{"authenticated": true, ...' >>> r.json() {'authenticated': True, ...} ```
Requests allows you to send HTTP/1.1 requests extremely easily. There’s no need to manually add query strings to your URLs, or to form-encode your `PUT` & `POST` data — but nowadays, just use the `json` method!
Requests is one of the most downloaded Python packages today, pulling in around `30M downloads / week`— according to GitHub, Requests is currently [depended upon](https://github.com/psf/requests/network/dependents?package_id=UGFja2FnZS01NzA4OTExNg%3D%3D) by `1,000,000+` repositories. You may certainly put your trust in this code.

## Cloning the repository
When cloning the Requests repository, you may need to add the `-c fetch.fsck.badTimezone=ignore` flag to avoid an error about a bad commit (see [this issue](https://github.com/psf/requests/issues/2690) for more background):
```shell git clone -c fetch.fsck.badTimezone=ignore https://github.com/psf/requests.git ```
You can also apply this setting to your global Git config:
```shell git config --global fetch.fsck.badTimezone ignore ```
