Configuration
=============
If you don't like VCR's defaults, you can set options by instantiating a
``VCR`` class and setting the options on it.
.. code:: python
import vcr
my_vcr = vcr.VCR(
serializer='json',
cassette_library_dir='fixtures/cassettes',
record_mode='once',
match_on=['uri', 'method'],
)
with my_vcr.use_cassette('test.json'):
# your http code here
Otherwise, you can override options each time you use a cassette.
.. code:: python
with vcr.use_cassette('test.yml', serializer='json', record_mode='once'):
# your http code here
Note: Per-cassette overrides take precedence over the global config.
Request matching
----------------
Request matching is configurable and allows you to change which requests
VCR considers identical. The default behavior is
``['method', 'scheme', 'host', 'port', 'path', 'query']`` which means
that requests with both the same URL and method (ie POST or GET) are
considered identical.
This can be configured by changing the ``match_on`` setting.
The following options are available :
- method (for example, POST or GET)
- uri (the full URI.)
- host (the hostname of the server receiving the request)
- port (the port of the server receiving the request)
- path (the path of the request)
- query (the query string of the request)
- raw\_body (the entire request body as is)
- body (the entire request body unmarshalled by content-type
i.e. xmlrpc, json, form-urlencoded, falling back on raw\_body)
- headers (the headers of the request)
Backwards compatible matchers:
- url (the ``uri`` alias)
If these options don't work for you, you can also register your own
request matcher. This is described in the Advanced section of this
README.
