Splunk Apps » Website Monitoring

• The IP is included but not with a session object
• I think this doesn't work with connection pooling
• I could use something other than request.Session but I need to use this to set the max redirects

# This works
from website_monitoring_app import requests
rsp = requests.get('http://google.com', stream=True)
rsp.raw._fp.fp._sock.getpeername()

# This does not
session = requests.Session()
http = session.get('http://google.com')
http.raw._fp.fp._sock.getpeername()

• Does this work as a context manager?

  • from website_monitoring_app import requests
    with requests.Session() as s:
        http = s.get('http://google.com')
        http.raw._fp.fp._sock.getpeername()
    

  • No
• Does monkey patching httplib work?
  • No

Summary:

I cannot do this without dropping the use of request sessions. The session allow connection pooling with improves performance and allows me to set maximum redirects to follow.
