Urlretrieve and User-Agent? - Python

Question

I\'m using urlretrieve from the urllib module.

I cannot seem to find how to add a User-Agent description to my requests.

Is it possible with urlretrieve? o

Answer 1

First, set version:

urllib.URLopener.version = 'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/35.0.1916.153 Safari/537.36 SE 2.X MetaSr 1.0'

Then:

filename, headers = urllib.urlretrieve(url)
