MultipartReader

✓ from multipart_reader import MultipartReader

✗ from multipart.reader import MultipartReader

Correct module name uses underscores

Parse multipart/form-data from bytes and headers.

from multipart_reader import MultipartReader import io # Example multipart data body = b'--boundary\r\nContent-Disposition: form-data; name="field1"\r\n\r\nvalue1\r\n--boundary--' headers = {'Content-Type': 'multipart/form-data; boundary=boundary'} reader = MultipartReader.from_response(io.BytesIO(body), headers) parts = [] reader.release_all() # iterate all parts for part in reader: print(part.name, part.text) parts.append(part) print('Done')

Debug

Known issues

deprecatedmultipart-reader is no longer actively developed. For new projects, use aiohttp's built-in multipart handling or python-multipart.

fix

Replace with python-multipart or aiohttp

affects: all

gotchaThe reader does not automatically decode file content. Body parts are returned as bytes; you must manually decode if text is expected.

fix

Call part.text (which decodes) or part.file for raw bytes.

affects: 0.x

gotchaMultipartReader expects a BytesIO-like object, not a file path or string. Passing a string will fail silently.

fix

Wrap your data in io.BytesIO(...) before passing.

affects: 0.x

Errors

Common errors & fixes

AttributeError: 'MultipartReader' object has no attribute 'from_response'

Using an outdated or incorrect import path; trying to call a method that may not exist in this version.

fix

Use 'from multipart_reader import MultipartReader' and create reader via 'MultipartReader.from_response(stream, headers)' if available; else use 'MultipartReader.from_stream'.

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'multipart'

Trying to import from the wrong module name; correct module is 'multipart_reader'.

fix

Run 'pip install multipart-reader' and import as 'from multipart_reader import MultipartReader'.

TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not iterable

Iterating over the reader without calling 'release_all()' first, or the reader is already exhausted.

fix

Call 'reader.release_all()' before iterating, or use 'for part in reader: ...' only once.
