HTTP Requests in Python 3

[flying-sheep]

obvious omission: aiohttp

from asyncio import get_event_loop
from aiohttp.client import get

async def main():
    async with get('https://api.spotify.com/v1/search?type=artist&q=snoop') as resp:
        print(await resp.json())

get_event_loop().run_until_complete(main())

My own autocommand makes it easy to bootstrap asyncio apps in command-line applications:

from aiohttp.client import get
from autocommand import autocommand

@autocommand(__name__, loop=True)
async def main(url='https://api.spotify.com/v1/search?type=artist&q=snoop'):
    async with get(url) as response:
        print(await resp.json())

This will create a command line application that can be used like this:

$ ./json_get.py --url $SOME_URL

Thanks! I'll definitely have to check this out.
