Framework / HTTP – Contentstack Python CDA SDK
When to use
- Editing
contentstack/https_connection.py or contentstack/controller.py.
- Changing retry policy, timeouts, or
requests session configuration.
- Debugging connection or retry failures.
Instructions
Integration point
contentstack/stack.py constructs HTTPSConnection with endpoint, headers, timeout, retry_strategy (urllib3.Retry), and live_preview.contentstack/https_connection.py mounts HTTPAdapter(max_retries=...) and calls get_request from contentstack/controller.py.
When to change
- Retry / timeout behavior: align
Stack defaults with HTTPSConnection and HTTPAdapter usage; avoid breaking existing Retry constructor expectations.
- Headers / user-agent:
user_agents() in https_connection.py uses contentstack.__title__ and __version__.
Testing
- Integration — full stack via
tests/ and config; unit-style assertions on URL building and headers where tests exist.
