Martin Panter 747d48cf27 Issues #22989, #21228: Document HTTP response object for urlopen()
Previous documentation was not clear if the geturl(), info() and getcode()
were valid for HTTP responses. The “msg” attribute is different to the usual
HTTPResponse.msg attribute. Based on patch by Evens Fortuné.

Berker Peksag 6d7dced188 Fix two typos in AbstractBasicAuthHandler documentation. 2015-04-17 04:58:45 +03:00
R David Murray 4c7f995e80 #7159: generalize urllib prior auth support.
This fix is a superset of the functionality introduced by the issue #19494
enhancement, and supersedes that fix.  Instead of a new handler, we have a new
password manager that tracks whether we should send the auth for a given uri.
This allows us to say "always send", satisfying #19494, or track that we've
succeeded in auth and send the creds right away on every *subsequent* request.
The support for using the password manager is added to AbstractBasicAuth,
which means the proxy handler also now can handle prior auth if passed
the new password manager.

Patch by Akshit Khurana, docs mostly by me.

Nick Coghlan c216c48699 Close #19494: add urrlib.request.HTTPBasicPriorAuthHandler
This auth handler adds the Authorization header to the first
HTTP request rather than waiting for a HTTP 401 Unauthorized
response from the server as the default HTTPBasicAuthHandler
does.

This allows working with websites like https://api.github.com which do
not follow the strict interpretation of RFC, but more the dicta in the
end of section 2 of RFC 2617:

    > A client MAY preemptively send the corresponding Authorization
    > header with requests for resources in that space without receipt
    > of another challenge from the server.  Similarly, when a client
    > sends a request to a proxy, it may reuse a userid and password in
    > the Proxy-Authorization header field without receiving another
    > challenge from the proxy server. See section 4 for security
    > considerations associated with Basic authentication.
