This package allows for HTTP NTLM authentication using the requests library.

Project description

This package allows for HTTP NTLM authentication using the requests library.

Usage

HttpNtlmAuth extends requests AuthBase, so usage is simple:

import requests
from requests_ntlm import HttpNtlmAuth

requests.get("http://ntlm_protected_site.com",auth=HttpNtlmAuth('domain\\username','password'))

HttpNtlmAuth can be used in conjunction with a Session in order to make use of connection pooling. Since NTLM authenticates connections, this is more efficient. Otherwise, each request will go through a new NTLM challenge-response.

import requests
from requests_ntlm import HttpNtlmAuth

session = requests.Session()
session.auth = HttpNtlmAuth('domain\\username','password', session)
session.get('http://ntlm_protected_site.com')

Installation

pip install requests_ntlm
