Python equivalent of a given wget command

Question

I\'m trying to create a Python function that does the same thing as this wget command:

wget -c --read-timeout=5 --tries=0 \"$URL\"

-c

Answer 1

A solution that I often find simpler and more robust is to simply execute a terminal command within python. In your case:

import os
url = 'https://www.someurl.com'
os.system(f"""wget -c --read-timeout=5 --tries=0 "{url}"""")
