Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
In our API we handle a lot of items and came to a point where we want to delete a lot of this items at the same time. Our first approach was to call a DELETE on every single ID. This works, but it is very slow.
Then we added a new delete functionality where we have only one DELETE call with a json body with a lot of IDs. I know, that this is not the "normal" way to do it, but it works fine and is not forbidden in openapi I think.
The problem with the openapi-python-client is, that it creates an httpx.delete call. And the httpx library does not allow a body for a DELETE. In the httpx github I found this thread: encode/httpx#1587
So a DELETE with a body is possible if you use httpx.request instead of http.delete.
Describe the solution you'd like
After a short look into the openapi-python-client code I have an easy solution for this problem. I just changed every httpx call into a httpx.request call and added the endpoint.method in the _get_kwargs method.
Here are my changes:
endpoint_module.py.jinja.txt
For me this works pretty good and does not change any other behavior. If nothing speaks against it I would like to PR this change.
