I have two Python scripts. One uses the Urllib2 library and one uses the Requests library.
I have found Requests easier to implement, but I can't find an equivalent for urlib2's read() function. For example:
...
response = url.urlopen(req)
print response.geturl()
print response.getcode()
data = response.read()
print data
Once I have built up my post url, data = response.read() gives me the content - I am trying to connect to a vcloud director api instance and the response shows the endpoints that I have access to. However if I use the Requests library as follows.....
....
def post_call(username, org, password, key, secret):
endpoint = '<URL ENDPOINT>'
post_url = endpoint + 'sessions'
get_url = endpoint + 'org'
headers = {'Accept':'application/*+xml;version=5.1',
'Authorization':'Basic '+ base64.b64encode(username + "@" + org + ":" + password),
'x-id-sec':base64.b64encode(key + ":" + secret)}
print headers
post_call = requests.post(post_url, data=None, headers = headers)
print post_call, "POST call"
print post_call.text, "TEXT"
print post_call.content, "CONTENT"
post_call.status_code, "STATUS CODE"
....
....the print post_call.text and print post_call.content returns nothing, even though the status code equals 200 in the requests post call.
Why isn't my response from Requests returning any text or content?
