Loved this format!

Hey Kenneth!

I absolutely LOVED this format. I'm playing around with some API's and building some test codes and this is exactly what I needed to understand requests in python better.

In the future I'd like to see an example with some more complex authentication, like blockchain.info's API

Or something that requires tokens or personal access keys.

Thanks a lot!

Hey Nicolas Sandller!

Glad you liked it! requests is a fun little project.

I don't know that we'll be doing any more examples with it, at least not stand-alone bits, but it's highly likely to come back in other contexts. Maybe I'll work up a more advanced example then!

(or, you can totally work one up and post it to the forum. ping me and I'll feature it)

Awesome! I'll post my code in the forum when I finish.

Also I wanted to ask you if there's something like npm (https://www.npmjs.com) for python out there. I know that there is de pypi.python.org, but packages are really hard to find and compare (npm does this brilliantly). This being said I think python is so much better than JavaScript! I like it a lot.

thanks again!
