Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: Library (Lib) Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Dariusz Suchojad (dsuch) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: urllib.urlretrieve/URLopener.retrieve - 'buff' argument Initial Comment: Hello, attached is a tiny patch which adds to urllib.urlretrieve and urllib.URLopener.retrieve an optional 'buff' argument, which should be a file-like object (e.g. a StringIO instance). I don't have any performance issues with creating temporary files (right now, anyway..) but it would be nice if I could pass my own objects for those methods to write to. Optionally, it could also raise an exception (ValueError?) if neither 'filename' nor 'buff' were given on input. Diffed against today's trunk. What do you think? Make sense? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=305470&aid=1731720&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Patches mailing list Patches@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/patches
