I see that the urllib class h= as prompt_user_passwd() that can be overriden for the password supply, so t= hat no console action is necessary, but with httplib how is done? > My questions are: > -am I using the right class? > -i intend to store certificate and private key in database, but how can I= use them without saving back to file? > > I have already developed applications for http/https but not in python, s= o I need some hint to point me in the right direction. > > Thanks > Nenad > > -- > http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list I, for one, suggest for your sanity. I guess it would be something along the lines of: import requests xml =3D """ ...""" files =3D {'file-field-as-requested-by-the-service': xml} requests.post(url, files=3Dfiles, auth=3DHTTPDigestAuth('user', 'pass')) Plus http://docs.python-requests.org/en/latest/user/advanced/#ssl-cert-veri= fication and other stuff from there.
