HTTP POST with urllib.request
How to send an HTTP POST request with urllib.request? I want to submit a form to a Website.
✍: FYIcenter.com
To submit a form to a Website, you can use the
urllib.request.urlopen() function with two arguments:
r = urllib.request.urlopen(url, data) where: url can be a URL string or Request object data is request body as a binary string.
Here is a Python example on how to send a POST request with body data:
>>> import urllib >>> url = 'http://httpbin.org/post' >>> data = b'userid=fyi&password=center' >>> r = urllib.request.urlopen(url,data) >>> b = r.read() >>> print(b) b'{\n "args": {}, \n "data": "", \n "files": {}, \n "form": {\n "password": "center", \n "userid": "fyi"\n }, \n "headers": {\n "Accept-Encoding": "identity", \n "Connection": "close", \n "Content-Length": "26", \n "Content-Type": "application/x-www-form-urlencoded", \n "Host": "httpbin.org", \n "User-Agent": "Python-urllib/3.6"\n }, \n "json": null, \n "url": "http://httpbin.org/post"\n}\n'
⇒ Using urllib.parse.urlencode()
⇐ http.client.HTTPResponse Objects
