New submission from Patrick Westerhoff <patrickwesterh...@gmail.com>:
Hey, I would like to request the support of other HTTP methods (other than GET and POST) in urllib.request. While it’s actually simple enough to override the Request class to add such a possibility, I think it is far too simple to leave it out of the standard library. I’ve attached a patch that adds the functionality with a simple `method` property. The `get_method` function then simply looks if a custom method was entered, and otherwise falls back to the default behaviour. Thanks a lot! Patrick Westerhoff Btw. Being a Git user, I hope the patch is actually useful ;) ---------- components: Library (Lib) files: urllib.patch keywords: patch messages: 145283 nosy: poke priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Add support for other HTTP methods in urllib.request type: feature request versions: Python 3.2, Python 3.3, Python 3.4 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file23362/urllib.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13142> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
