rnet

🚀 Help me work seamlessly with open source sharing by sponsoring me on GitHub

A blazing-fast Python HTTP client with advanced browser fingerprinting that accurately emulates Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Opera, and OkHttp, with precise TLS and HTTP2 signatures, and powered by wreq for high performance.

Features

• Async and Blocking Clients
• Plain bodies, JSON, urlencoded, multipart
• Cookie Store
• Redirect Policy
• Original Headers
• Rotating Proxies
• WebSocket Upgrade
• Connection Pooling
• Streaming Transfers
• Zero-Copy Transfers
• HTTPS via BoringSSL
• Free-Threaded Safety
• Automatic Decompression

Example

The following example uses the asyncio runtime with rnet installed via pip:

pip install asyncio rnet==3.0.0rc8

And then the code:

import asyncio
from rnet import Client, Emulation


async def main():
    # Build a client
    client = Client(emulation=Emulation.Firefox143)

    # Use the API you're already familiar with
    resp = await client.get("https://tls.peet.ws/api/all")

    # Print the response
    print(await resp.text())


if __name__ == "__main__":
    asyncio.run(main())

Building

1. Development

Install the BoringSSL build environment by referring to boring and boringssl.

# on ubuntu or debian
sudo apt install -y build-essential cmake perl pkg-config libclang-dev musl-tools git
curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh
pip install uv maturin

uv venv
source .venv/bin/activate

# Development
maturin develop --uv

# Build wheels
maturin build --release

2. Musllinux

Make sure you have Docker installed. The provided image may be outdated, so you might need to build it yourself. See rust-cross-musl and the upstream rust-cross/rust-musl-cross for reference.
Note: The upstream image does not include some platform-specific linker environment variables; you may need to add these manually.

bash .github/musl_build.sh i686-unknown-linux-musl
bash .github/musl_build.sh x86_64-unknown-linux-musl
bash .github/musl_build.sh aarch64-unknown-linux-musl
bash .github/musl_build.sh armv7-unknown-linux-musleabihf

TLS fingerprinting alone isn't enough for modern bot protection. Hyper Solutions provides the missing piece - API endpoints that generate valid antibot tokens for:

Akamai • DataDome • Kasada • Incapsula

No browser automation. Just simple API calls that return the exact cookies and headers these systems require.
