Create Simple HTTP Client Using Python Socket Module - Part 2

hii readers,

This Is Our second Post about python Socket Programming. So, In This Article, I Am Going To Show You how to create a simple client python script using python socket module.

In this article,

we will see how we can simply interact with websites using python socket module.

so, let's start but first,

i will suggest you to read Python Socket Programming - Part 1

because in first part, i describe about socket function and many basic things.

so,let's start today's tutorial

Here,

first import module

then, select host and port

create socket object

#!/usr/bin/python

# Import Modules
import socket   
import sys  


# Host Server Configurations
host = 'www.google.com'
port = 80

# Creating Socket
s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
print '[+] Socket Created   -> Done'

In Second Part

get host ip address

bind client with server

# First, For Connection, We need Host ip. so,
# Get Host IP Address
host_ip = socket.gethostbyname(host)

#Connect to remote server
s.connect((host_ip , port))

# print conformation message
print '[+] Socket Connection Established : \n\t\tHost : {} | IP : {} '.format(host,host_ip)

In Third Part

send message to server

and

receive message from server

#Send some data to remote server
message = "GET / HTTP/1.1\r\n\r\n"


s.sendall(message)
print 'Message send successfully'
 
#Now receive data
reply = s.recv(1024)

# print message received
print reply

# Close Socket
s.close()

And,

write complete code

Finally,

#!/usr/bin/python

# Import Modules
import socket   
import sys  


# Host Server Configurations
host = 'www.google.com'
port = 80


# Creating Socket
s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
print '[+] Socket Created   -> Done'

# First, For Connection, We need Host ip. so,
# Get Host IP Address
host_ip = socket.gethostbyname(host)

#Connect to remote server
s.connect((host_ip , port))

# print conformation message
print '[+] Socket Connection Established : \n\t\tHost : {} | IP : {} '.format(host,host_ip)
 
#Send some data to remote server
message = "GET / HTTP/1.1\r\n\r\n"


s.sendall(message)
print 'Message send successfully'
 
#Now receive data
reply = s.recv(1024)

# print message received
print reply

if "Location" in reply:
    pass

else:
    # Socket Close
    s.close()
    # Exit
    sys.exit(0)
    
# Extracting Header From Received Message Data
header = reply[:reply.find('\r\n\r\n')]

# Handling Redirections
header_lnie_starting_point = header.find('Location')

# Extract Location Line From Header
header = header[header_lnie_starting_point:]

# Header location line
location_line = header.split('\n')[0]

# Get New Address
new_adderr = location_line[location_line.find(":")+2:]

print "[+] Redirecting Url Found : {}".format(new_adderr)

# Socket Close
s.close()

let run these code and check output

here, i got these error

[+] Socket Created   -> Done
[+] Socket Connection Established : 
  Host : www.google.com | IP : 74.125.130.106 
Message send successfully
HTTP/1.1 302 Found

As, You Can See, Our Client Is Now Ready!

So, Let's Move Ahead

and

let revise again to create server script

# step 4 :

import socket

# Create a TCP/IP socket
sock = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)

# Bind the socket to the port
server_address = ('localhost', 10000)

# print server address and port
print "[+] Server IP {} | Port {}".format(server_address[0],server_address[1])

# bind socket with server
sock.bind(server_address)

# Listen for incoming connections
sock.listen(1)

# Create Loop
while True:
    # Wait for a connection
    print '[+]  Waiting for a client connection'
    # connection established
    connection, client_address = sock.accept()
    try:
        print '[+] Connection from', client_address

        # Receive the data in small chunks and retransmit it
        while True:
            data = connection.recv(16)
            print 'received "%s"' % data
            if data:
                print 'sending data back to the client'
                connection.sendall(data)
            else:
                print 'no more data from', client_address
                break
            
    finally:
        # Close the connection
        connection.close()

here,

my server output is

[+] Server IP localhost | Port 10000
[+]  Waiting for a client connection
[+] Connection from ('127.0.0.1', 53782)
received "This is the mess"
sending data back to the client
received "age.  It will be"
sending data back to the client
received " repeated."
sending data back to the client
received ""
no more data from ('127.0.0.1', 53782)
[+]  Waiting for a client connection

I Think,

This is enough for today. So, readers In MY Next Tutorial You Will See More Useful Examples and codes.
