-Using urllib2 with Django REST Framework
-========================================
-
-Python's standard library comes with some nice modules
-you can use to test your api or even write a full client.
-
-Using the 'GET' method
-----------------------
-
-Here's an example which does a 'GET' on the `model-resource` example
-in the sandbox.::
-
- >>> import urllib2
- >>> r = urllib2.urlopen('htpp://shielded-mountain-6732.herokuapp.com/model-resource-example')
- >>> r.getcode() # Check if the response was ok
- 200
- >>> print r.read() # Examin the response itself
- [{"url": "http://shielded-mountain-6732.herokuapp.com/model-resource-example/1/", "baz": "sdf", "foo": true, "bar": 123}]
-
-Using the 'POST' method
------------------------
-
-And here's an example which does a 'POST' to create a new instance. First let's encode
-the data we want to POST. We'll use `urllib` for encoding and the `time` module
-to send the current time as as a string value for our POST.::
-
- >>> import urllib, time
- >>> d = urllib.urlencode((('bar', 123), ('baz', time.asctime())))
-
-Now use the `Request` class and specify the 'Content-type'::
-
- >>> req = urllib2.Request('http://shielded-mountain-6732.herokuapp.com/model-resource-example/', data=d, headers={'Content-Type':'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'})
- >>> resp = urllib2.urlopen(req)
- >>> resp.getcode()
- 201
- >>> resp.read()
- '{"url": "http://shielded-mountain-6732.herokuapp.com/model-resource-example/4/", "baz": "Fri Dec 30 18:22:52 2011", "foo": false, "bar": 123}'
-
-That should get you started to write a client for your own api.
