Package: zenrows
ZenRows Python SDKSDK to accessZenRowsAPI directly from Python. ZenRows handles proxies rotation, headless browsers, and CAPTCHAs for you.InstallationInstall the SDK with pip.pipinstallzenrowsUsageStart using the API bycreating your API Key.The SDK usesrequestsfor HTTP requests. The client's response will be a requestsResponse.It also usesRetryto automatically retry failed requests (status codes 429, 500, 502, 503, and 504). Retries are not active by default; you need to specify the number of retries, as shown below. It already includes an exponential back-off retry delay between failed requests.fromzenrowsimportZenRowsClientclient=ZenRowsClient("YOUR-API-KEY",retries=1)url="https://www.zenrows.com/"response=client.get(url,params={# Our algorithm allows to automatically extract content from any website"autoparse":False,# CSS Selectors for data extraction (i.e. {"links":"a @href"} to get href attributes from links)"css_extractor":"",# Enable Javascript with a headless browser (5 credits)"js_render":False,# Use residential proxies (10 credits)"premium_proxy":False,# Make your request from a given country.

For more info, check outthe documentation page.Sending headers to the target URL will overwrite our defaults. Be careful when doing it and contact us if there is any problem.POST RequestsThe SDK also offers POST requests by calling theclient.postmethod. It can receive a new parameterdatathat represents the data sent in, for example, a form.fromzenrowsimportZenRowsClientclient=ZenRowsClient("YOUR-API-KEY",retries=1)url="https://httpbin.org/anything"response=client.post(url,data={"key1":"value1","key2":"value2",})print(response.text)ConcurrencyTo limit the concurrency, it usesasyncio, which will simultaneously send a maximum of requests. The concurrency is determined by the plan you are in, so take a look at thepricingand set it accordingly. Take into account that each client instance will have its own limit, meaning that two different scripts will not share it, and 429 (Too Many Requests) errors might arise.The main difference with the sequential snippet above isclient.get_asyncinstead ofclient.get. The rest will work exactly the same, and we will support thegetfunction. But the async is necessary to parallelize calls and allow async/await syntax. Remember to run the scripts withasyncio.runor it will fail with acoroutine 'main' was never awaitederror.We useasyncio.gatherin the example below. It will wait for all the calls to finish, and the results are stored in aresponsesarray. The whole list of URLs will run, even if some fail. Then each response will have the status, request, response content, and other values as usual.fromzenrowsimportZenRowsClientimportasyncioclient=ZenRowsClient("YOUR-API-KEY",concurrency=5,retries=1)asyncdefmain():urls=["https://www.zenrows.com/",# ...]responses=awaitasyncio.gather(*[client.get_async(url)forurlinurls])forresponseinresponses:print(response.text)asyncio.run(main())ContributingPull requests are welcome.
