每天进步一点点:Python中使用PycURL访问STEEM RPC

in pycurl •  7 years ago 

在之前的文章中,我们学习在Python中使用Requests访问STEEM RPC以及Python中使用urllib访问STEEM RPC,但是还有PycURL没测试过,这岂能罢休,必须继续折腾一下。

继续拿我们之前的命令为例来学习一下怎么使用PycURL达成:

curl --data '{"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "call", "params": ["account_by_key_api", "get_key_references", [["STM6MGdForcZ8HskcguP84QSCb8udgz7W9yUPU5jtsAKQAxth3U16"]]], "id": 1}' https://api.steemit.com

PycURL 安装

如果你的Python还没有安装PycURL库,那么使用之前,你需要先安装它,安装命令如下:

pip install pycurl

但是,在我这出了如下错误:

FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'curl-config'

看了一下好想要先装上libcurl-dev

让我试着安装一下:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get libcurl4-openssl-dev

再执行:pip install pycurl,安装成功!

使用PycURL访问STEEM RPC 节点

在参考手册中,一个简单的POST示例如下:

import pycurl
try:
    # python 3
    from urllib.parse import urlencode
except ImportError:
    # python 2
    from urllib import urlencode

c = pycurl.Curl()
c.setopt(c.URL, 'https://httpbin.org/post')

post_data = {'field': 'value'}
# Form data must be provided already urlencoded.
postfields = urlencode(post_data)
# Sets request method to POST,
# Content-Type header to application/x-www-form-urlencoded
# and data to send in request body.
c.setopt(c.POSTFIELDS, postfields)

c.perform()
c.close()

我们将其改写一下,让其能与STEEM RPC 节点交互,示例代码如下:

import pycurl
import json
from io import BytesIO

payload = {"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "call", "params": ["account_by_key_api", "get_key_references", [["STM6MGdForcZ8HskcguP84QSCb8udgz7W9yUPU5jtsAKQAxth3U16"]]], "id": 1}
rpc = "https://api.steemit.com"
buffer = BytesIO()

c = pycurl.Curl()
c.setopt(c.URL, rpc)
postfields = json.dumps(payload)
c.setopt(c.POSTFIELDS, postfields)
c.setopt(c.WRITEDATA, buffer)
c.perform()
c.close()

body = buffer.getvalue()
print(body.decode('ascii'))

执行结果如下:

高级功能

阅读参考手册我们就会发现,PycURL其实就是libcurl的Python封装,比如手册中的介绍就是这么写的

PycURL is a Python interface to libcurl, the multiprotocol file transfer library.

同样是由于这个原因,它比Requests啥的快好几倍,并且具有诸多特色,详情可以参考文末的参考链接。

我们要想把PycURL灵活运用,除了阅读PycURL手册以外,还需要了解libcurl的API 。比如setopt(option, value)其实对应的是libcurl中的curl_easy_setopt

对于我们而言,需求相对简单,对速度和性能啥的没啥过分的要求,没必要使用PycURL。(这是个逃避的好借口啊)

总结

PycURL 比urllib和Requests用起来都要复杂。

虽然据说性能会更好一些,但是在我这种半吊子程序员手中,再强大的东西我也会给它用成小白的。所以我果断决定放弃使用PycURL了。

比较下来,还是Requests舒服,以后就用它玩了。嗯,就这样,不折腾了。

this information is very good friends, I am very happy to see this post, can learn and learn it, your post is very useful, I really like this post, thank you for sharing some knowledge you learn, upvote and restem

看到你比较:PycURL ,urllib,Requests,想起了多年前“PHP是世界上最好的语言”这个段子了。Python大概是运行最慢的脚本语言,外挂库臃肿,写代码格式又死板。哈哈。。。

我也想学Python,优雅、明确、简单、易读,值得拥有,哈哈!
