make a http request with a custom method in python

To make a HTTP request with a custom method in Python, you can use the requests library. The requests module allows you to send HTTP/1.1 requests using Python. Here's an example:

main.py
import requests

url = 'https://example.com/api/custom'

response = requests.request('CUSTOM', url)
100 chars
6 lines

In the above code snippet, we import the requests module and specify the URL for the API endpoint that we want to hit. We then use the requests.request() method and pass the custom method ('CUSTOM') as the first argument along with the URL. The requests.request() method returns a Response object that contains the server's response to the request.

If the API endpoint requires any additional headers or parameters, you can pass them as keyword arguments to the requests.request() method. For example, to send a custom header in the request, you can use the headers parameter:

main.py
headers = {'custom-header': 'value'}

response = requests.request('CUSTOM', url, headers=headers)
98 chars
4 lines

Overall, the requests library is a powerful and easy-to-use tool for making HTTP requests in Python, including use of custom methods.
