Python: Check the status code issued by a server in response to a client's request
Python Requests: Exercise-2 with Solution
Write a Python code to check the status code issued by a server in response to a client's request made to the server. Print all of the methods and attributes available to objects on successful request.
All HTTP response status codes are separated into five classes or categories. The first digit of the status code defines the class of response, while the last two digits do not have any classifying or categorization role. There are five classes defined by the standard:
1xx informational response – the request was received, continuing process
2xx successful – the request was successfully received, understood, and accepted
3xx redirection – further action needs to be taken in order to complete the request
4xx client error – the request contains bad syntax or cannot be fulfilled
5xx server error – the server failed to fulfil an apparently valid request
Sample Solution:
Python Code:
import requests
res = requests.get('https://google.com/')
print("Response of https://google.com/:")
print(res.status_code)
res = requests.get('https://amazon.com/')
print("Response of https://amazon.com/:")
print(res.status_code)
res = requests.get('https://w3resource.com/')
print("Response of https://w3resource.com/:")
print(res.status_code)
print("\nMethods and attributes available to objects on successful\nrequest of https://w3resource.com:\n")
print(dir(res))
Sample Output:
Response of https://google.com/: 200 Response of https://amazon.com/: 503 Response of https://w3resource.com/: 200 Methods and attributes available to objects on successful request of https://w3resource.com: ['__attrs__', '__bool__', '__class__', '__delattr__', '__dict__', '__dir__', '__doc__', '__enter__', '__eq__', '__exit__', '__format__', '__ge__', '__getattribute__', '__getstate__', '__gt__', '__hash__', '__init__', '__init_subclass__', '__iter__', '__le__', '__lt__', '__module__', '__ne__', '__new__', '__nonzero__', '__reduce__', '__reduce_ex__', '__repr__', '__setattr__', '__setstate__', '__sizeof__', '__str__', '__subclasshook__', '__weakref__', '_content', '_content_consumed', '_next', 'apparent_encoding', 'close', 'connection', 'content', 'cookies', 'elapsed', 'encoding', 'headers', 'history', 'is_permanent_redirect', 'is_redirect', 'iter_content', 'iter_lines', 'json', 'links', 'next', 'ok', 'raise_for_status', 'raw', 'reason', 'request', 'status_code', 'text', 'url']

Python: Tips of the Day
Creates a dictionary with the same keys as the provided dictionary and values generated by running the provided function for each value:
Example:
def tips_map_values(obj, fn): ret = {} for key in obj.keys(): ret[key] = fn(obj[key]) return ret users = { 'Owen': { 'user': 'Owen', 'age': 29 }, 'Eddie': { 'user': 'Eddie', 'age': 15 } } print(tips_map_values(users, lambda u : u['age'])) # {'Owen': 29, 'Eddie': 15}
Output:
{'Owen': 29, 'Eddie': 15}
