基于urllib3的新Api实现

>>> import urllib3
>>> http = urllib3.PoolManager()
>>> r = http.request('GET', 'your_url_goes_here')
>>> r.status
   200
>>> r.data
   *****Response Data****

Python 2/3的PabloG代码的改进版本:

        filename = 'downloaded.file'

import urllib2
mp3file = urllib2.urlopen("http://www.example.com/songs/mp3.mp3")
with open('test.mp3','wb') as output:
  output.write(mp3file.read())

open('test.mp3'，'wb')中的wb以二进制模式打开文件(并擦除任何现有文件)，以便您可以使用它保存数据而不仅仅是文本。

还有一个，使用urlretrieve:

import urllib.request
urllib.request.urlretrieve("http://www.example.com/songs/mp3.mp3", "mp3.mp3")

(对于Python 2使用import urllib和urllib.urlretrieve)

使用5行Python请求

import requests as req

remote_url = 'http://www.example.com/sound.mp3'
local_file_name = 'sound.mp3'

data = req.get(remote_url)

# Save file data to local copy
with open(local_file_name, 'wb')as file:
    file.write(data.content)

现在对远程文件的本地副本执行一些操作
