Requests v1.2.3 doesn’t expose httplib’s support (since Python 2.7) for specifying the source address for binding the socket used by HTTPConnection:

“This is what connection adapters are for.”

The example in adapter.py shows a basic implementation of a transport adapter that supports a src_addr keyword argument for specifying the source address. It has the following limitations because I did the simplest thing that could possibly work for my requirements:

  • Requires Python 2.7+ for source address support in httplib or http.client.
  • Not tested with Python 3.
  • Supports only HTTPS.
  • Doesn’t validate SSL credentials.
