[issue15769] urllib.request.urlopen with cafile or capath set overrides any previous Handlers
Brian Turek added the comment: So I'm not saying the attached patch is the *best* solution but it doesn't mangle the existing urllib.request._opener too much. -- keywords: +patch Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file26977/request.patch ___ Python tracker <http://bugs.python.org/issue15769> ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue15769] urllib.request.urlopen with cafile or capath set overrides any previous Handlers
Brian Turek added the comment: I was actually going to come up with a patch that does the same thing orsenthil mentioned until I too was stymied by the use of bisect.insort Does anyone know why bisect.insort was used instead of just list.append? I don't see an obvious reason so I think just having add_handler insert new handlers at the beginning of all the respective lists would be an easy fix. -- ___ Python tracker <http://bugs.python.org/issue15769> ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue15769] urllib.request.urlopen with cafile or capath set overrides any previous Handlers
New submission from Brian Turek: Using the code snippet below: cj = http.cookiejar.CookieJar() opener = urllib.request.build_opener(urllib.request.HTTPCookieProcessor()) urllib.request.install_opener(opener) request = urllib.request.Request(url, data, headers) # url is https://something sock = urllib.request.urlopen(request, cafile = 'cacert.pem') One would expect to establish a verified HTTPS connection to the host and the cookies stored in the cookie jar. Unfortunately urllib.request.urlopen, when called with cafile or capath set, calls urllib.request.build_opener without HTTPCookieProcessor included in the chain. This results in never being able to support cookies in a "verified" HTTPS connection. -- components: Library (Lib) messages: 168915 nosy: caligatio priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: urllib.request.urlopen with cafile or capath set overrides any previous Handlers type: behavior versions: Python 3.2, Python 3.3, Python 3.4 ___ Python tracker <http://bugs.python.org/issue15769> ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
