Python-Requests close http connection

Question

I was wondering, how do you close a connection with Requests (python-requests.org)?

With httplib it\'s HTTPConnection.close(), but how do I

Answer 1

On Requests 1.X, the connection is available on the response object:

r = requests.post("https://stream.twitter.com/1/statuses/filter.json",
                  data={'track': toTrack}, auth=('username', 'passwd'))

r.connection.close()
