Hi, I'm having little trouble creating a script working with URLs. I'm using urllib.urlopen() to get content of desired URL. But some of these URLs requires authentication. And urlopen prompts me to type in my username and then password. What I need is to ignore every URL that'll require authentication, just easily skip it and continue...
I apologize if this is a duplicate question, I searched a bit and couldn't find anything similar - I have a Python library that connects to my C# application via a socket in order to allow simple Python scripting (IronPython isn't an option right now for a couple of reasons). I would like to create a Windows Forms control that would be b...
I'm using the Django ORM in a non-Django application and would like to turn on the DEBUG setting so that I can periodically log my queries.

I'm writing a Python extension that runs through a Py_UNICODE array, finds specific (ASCII, if it matters) characters, i.e. '\' or '\n', and does some additional stuff for each one that it finds. Is there a way to write those characters as literals? If not, what is the correct way to obtain Py_UNICODEs for them, keeping in mind that Py...

Hi there, I'm trying to access my google talk contacts' custom status messages with xmpppy. I'm made it this far: import xmpp import sys userID = '[email protected]' password = 'mypassword' ressource = 'Script' jid = xmpp.protocol.JID(userID) jabber = xmpp.Client(jid.getDomain(), debug=[]) connection = jabber.connect(('talk.goog...
Python documentation to Popen states: Warning Use communicate() rather than .stdin.write, .stdout.read or .stderr.read to avoid deadlocks due to any of the other OS pipe buffers filling up and blocking the child process. Now, I'm trying to figure out how this deadlock can occur and why. My mental model: subproccess produces someth...
Using Python I would like to find the date object for last Wednesday. I can figure out where today is on the calendar using isocalendar, and determine whether or not we need to go back a week to get to the previous Wednesday. However, I can't figure out how to create a new date object with that information. Essentially, I need to figu...

I'm leveraging the scapy libraries to do some packet creation. Specially this questions is about the ConditionalField which takes it a field and a compariso...
I've tried asking this question on the KDE development forum, but haven't received a satisfying answer so far. I've developed a Python script for Amarok 1.4 which retrieves upcoming events for the currently playing artist and displays them in the context browser. The user can click each event to know more about it, but so far clicking ...
I'm new to Python, so forgive me if I am missing something obvious. I am using urllib.FancyURLopener to retrieve a web document. It works fine when authentication is disabled on the web server, but fails when authentication is enabled. My guess is that I need to subclass urllib.FancyURLopener to override the get_user_passwd() and/or p...
How do I add complex types to a SOAP request? I'm using WSDL2py generated requests, and trying to use the other TypeDefinitions that it made in the *_types.py file (like AccountInfo, for authentication, that goes into every request). Then passing it the wsdl2py generated server, and I'm getting this error: >>> from AutomotiveDescriptio...
Following suggestions, I am converting my project to declarative sqlalchemy class definitions. This allows me to define relations as strings ( a=relation('myotherclass'), instead of relation(myotherclass) ), and avoid cross importing issues. My question is how do I define column_properties the same way. This is sort of what I have (no...
I want to take a list [0,1,2] and turn it into [0,1,2,2,1,0]. Right now, I've got r = list(mus) r.reverse() mus = mus + r but it seems like there should be a better way. Can anyone come up with a good, pythonic one-liner? ...
I was just playing around with the python command line and the ** operator, which as far as I know performs a power function. So 2 ** 3 should be (and is) 8 because 2 * 2 * 2 = 8. Can someone explain the behavior I found? I don't see any way to group the operations with parentheses to actually get a result of 65536 like was attained h...
