A modern, extensible, and type-safe Python library for parsing, transforming, and analyzing HAR (HTTP Archive) files. Built on Pydantic, Hario-Core provides robust validation, flexible transformation, and easy extension for custom HAR formats.

• Type-Safe Parsing: Validates HAR files using Pydantic models, catching errors early.
• Transformers: Apply built-in or custom transformations to each HAR entry (e.g., flatten, normalizations).
• Normalization: Ensures all numeric fields (sizes, timings) are non-negative, so you can safely sum, aggregate, and analyze data without errors from negative values. This is crucial for analytics and reporting.
• Deterministic & Random IDs: Generate unique or deterministic IDs for each entry. Deterministic IDs ensure that the same request always gets the same ID—useful for deduplication, comparison, and building analytics pipelines.
• Extensible: Register your own entry models to support browser-specific or proprietary HAR extensions (e.g., Chrome DevTools, Safari).
• Composable Pipelines: Chain any number of transformers and ID strategies for flexible data processing.

pip install hario-core

from hario_core.parse import parse

har_log = parse("example.har")
entries = har_log.model_dump()["entries"]  # list of dicts

from hario_core.transform import Pipeline, flatten, set_id, by_field

pipeline = Pipeline([
    set_id(by_field(["request.url", "startedDateTime"]))
])
results = pipeline.process(entries)

from hario_core.parse import register_entry_model
from hario_core.models import Entry

def is_custom_entry(entry: dict) -> bool:
    return "x-custom" in entry

class CustomEntry(Entry):
    x_custom: str

register_entry_model(is_custom_entry, CustomEntry)

• parse(path_or_bytes_or_filelike) -> HarLog
• validate(har_dict: dict) -> HarLog
• register_entry_model(detector: Callable, model: Type[Entry])
• entry_selector(entry_dict: dict) -> Type[Entry]

• Entry, HarLog, DevToolsEntry (and all standard HAR 1.2 models)

• Pipeline, flatten, normalize_sizes, normalize_timings, set_id, by_field, uuid, json_array_handler
