[FEAT] Make Client useable for any authenticated POST request

[darthwalsh]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I made a small app that downloads all my CodinGame solutions. I need to make authenticated API requests to different URLs e.g. https://www.codingame.com/services/Puzzle/findAllMinimalProgress, /Solution/findSolution, etc.

I've now blocked with the login problem #5 and at the same time I was guessing about some solution you were building it! (wow!)

Describe the solution you'd like Add codingame.Client.request(service: str, func: str, json: list = []) to the public API for both the sync and async clients.

Describe alternatives you've considered

• I think my app could invoke client.request() but as it's undocumented it seems to be an internal API?
• I could add cookie session in my own repo, but I'd rather rely on some dedicated client to handle the logic.
• It would be awesome if this client natively supported the various CodinGame APIs my puzzle solution download app needed, but that feels like a big request. Instead, having the generic .request() escape hatch enables the library to be used for any new APIs that CodinGame releases!

Additional context I'm impressed by this project! Nice!

Currently the only way is to use the internal HTTPClient with client._state.http.request(...), but I'll probably add client.request as an alias for it. I'm also planning on adding the endpoints that you use but that will take more time, because I want to finish the notifications first and then I'll work on puzzle related endpoints. Thanks for the ideas and feedback.

The next release (1.2.0) will implement Client.request and it will probably come out today. Join the discord server if you want to be notified of the release.
