Or, if the data is in structured JSON, you can get the json pre-parsed into a Python dictionary that can be easily queried

or traversed. (Again, only for nRF52840, M4 and other high-RAM boards)

Requests

We've written a requests-like (https://adafru.it/FpT) library for web interfacing

named Adafruit_CircuitPython_Requests (https://adafru.it/FpW). This library allows you to send HTTP/1.1 requests

without "crafting" them and provides helpful methods for parsing the response from the server.

TEXT_URL = "http://wifitest.adafruit.com/testwifi/index.html"

print("Fetching text from", TEXT_URL)

r = requests.get(TEXT_URL)

print('-'*40)

print(r.text)

print('-'*40)

r.close()

JSON_URL = "http://api.coindesk.com/v1/bpi/currentprice/USD.json"

print("Fetching json from", JSON_URL)

r = requests.get(JSON_URL)

print('-'*40)

print(r.json())
