Status codes by name?

[AustinScola]

Is there a way to access status codes by name rather than using integers?

I see that aiohttp.web has server exceptions that are being deprecated, but that is the closest that I can find? The documentation generally uses the integer values like 200 so I'm guessing this isn't currently available? I'm imagining something like from aiohttp.statuses import Ok, NotFound, ....

P.S. If this is something that is determined to be worth adding I would gladly contribute!

I don't think it is necessary to reimplement this in aiohttp. One could easily just use the constants provided by stdlib: https://docs.python.org/3/library/http.html#http-status-codes.

Great, I didn't know about that package. Thanks for pointing it out to me!

As a side point, I don't think they are deprecated at all. returning them is deprecated.

Thanks for the correction. So they can still be raised just not returned?

Correct, only raising will be supported in aiohttp 4+.
