I am trying to download a PDF file from a website and save it to disk. My attempts either fail with encoding errors or result in blank PDFs.

You should use response.content in this case:
with open('/tmp/metadata.pdf', 'wb') as f:
f.write(response.content)
From the document:
You can also access the response body as bytes, for non-text requests:
>>> r.content
b'[{"repository":{"open_issues":0,"url":"https://github.com/...
So that means: response.text return the output as a string object, use it when you're downloading a text file. Such as HTML file, etc.
And response.content return the output as bytes object, use it when you're downloading a binary file. Such as PDF file, audio file, image, etc.
You can also use response.raw instead. However, use it when the file which you're about to download is large. Below is a basic example which you can also find in the document:
import requests
url = 'http://www.hrecos.org//images/Data/forweb/HRTVBSH.Metadata.pdf'
r = requests.get(url, stream=True)
with open('/tmp/metadata.pdf', 'wb') as fd:
for chunk in r.iter_content(chunk_size):
fd.write(chunk)
chunk_size is the chunk size which you want to use. If you set it as 2000, then requests will download that file the first 2000 bytes, write them into the file, and do this again, again and again, unless it finished.
So this can save your RAM. But I'd prefer use response.content instead in this case since your file is small. As you can see use response.raw is complex.

How to download image using requests
In Python 3, I find pathlib is the easiest way to do this. Request's response.content marries up nicely with pathlib's write_bytes.
from pathlib import Path
import requests
filename = Path('metadata.pdf')
url = 'http://www.hrecos.org//images/Data/forweb/HRTVBSH.Metadata.pdf'
response = requests.get(url)
filename.write_bytes(response.content)
You can use urllib:
import urllib.request
urllib.request.urlretrieve(url, "filename.pdf")
Please note I'm a beginner. If My solution is wrong, please feel free to correct and/or let me know. I may learn something new too.
My solution:
Change the downloadPath accordingly to where you want your file to be saved. Feel free to use the absolute path too for your usage.
Save the below as downloadFile.py.
Usage: python downloadFile.py url-of-the-file-to-download new-file-name.extension
Remember to add an extension!
Example usage: python downloadFile.py http://www.google.co.uk google.html
import requests
import sys
import os
def downloadFile(url, fileName):
with open(fileName, "wb") as file:
response = requests.get(url)
file.write(response.content)
scriptPath = sys.path[0]
downloadPath = os.path.join(scriptPath, '../Downloads/')
url = sys.argv[1]
fileName = sys.argv[2]
print('path of the script: ' + scriptPath)
print('downloading file to: ' + downloadPath)
downloadFile(url, downloadPath + fileName)
print('file downloaded...')
print('exiting program...')
Generally, this should work in Python3:
import urllib.request
..
urllib.request.get(url)
Remember that urllib and urllib2 don't work properly after Python2.
If in some mysterious cases requests don't work (happened with me), you can also try using
wget.download(url)

I have a small utility that I use to download an MP3 file from a website on a schedule and then builds/updates a podcast XML file which I've added to iTunes.
The text processing that creates/updates the XML file is written in Python. However, I use wget inside a Windows .bat file to download the actual MP3 file. I would prefer to have the entire utility written in Python.
I struggled to find a way to actually download the file in Python, thus why I resorted to using wget.
So, how do I download the file using Python?
One more, using urlretrieve:
import urllib.request
urllib.request.urlretrieve("http://www.example.com/songs/mp3.mp3", "mp3.mp3")
(for Python 2 use import urllib and urllib.urlretrieve)
Use urllib.request.urlopen():
import urllib.request
with urllib.request.urlopen('http://www.example.com/') as f:
html = f.read().decode('utf-8')
This is the most basic way to use the library, minus any error handling. You can also do more complex stuff such as changing headers.
On Python 2, the method is in urllib2:
import urllib2
response = urllib2.urlopen('http://www.example.com/')
html = response.read()
In 2012, use the python requests library
>>> import requests
>>>
>>> url = "http://download.thinkbroadband.com/10MB.zip"
>>> r = requests.get(url)
>>> print len(r.content)
10485760
You can run pip install requests to get it.
Requests has many advantages over the alternatives because the API is much simpler. This is especially true if you have to do authentication. urllib and urllib2 are pretty unintuitive and painful in this case.

People have expressed admiration for the progress bar. It's cool, sure. There are several off-the-shelf solutions now, including tqdm:
from tqdm import tqdm
import requests
url = "http://download.thinkbroadband.com/10MB.zip"
response = requests.get(url, stream=True)
with open("10MB", "wb") as handle:
for data in tqdm(response.iter_content()):
handle.write(data)
This is essentially the implementation #kvance described 30 months ago.
import urllib2
mp3file = urllib2.urlopen("http://www.example.com/songs/mp3.mp3")
with open('test.mp3','wb') as output:
output.write(mp3file.read())
The wb in open('test.mp3','wb') opens a file (and erases any existing file) in binary mode so you can save data with it instead of just text.
Python 3
urllib.request.urlopen
import urllib.request
response = urllib.request.urlopen('http://www.example.com/')
html = response.read()
urllib.request.urlretrieve
import urllib.request
urllib.request.urlretrieve('http://www.example.com/songs/mp3.mp3', 'mp3.mp3')
Note: According to the documentation, urllib.request.urlretrieve is a "legacy interface" and "might become deprecated in the future" (thanks gerrit)
Python 2
urllib2.urlopen (thanks Corey)
import urllib2
response = urllib2.urlopen('http://www.example.com/')
html = response.read()
urllib.urlretrieve (thanks PabloG)
import urllib
urllib.urlretrieve('http://www.example.com/songs/mp3.mp3', 'mp3.mp3')
use wget module:
import wget
wget.download('url')
import os,requests
def download(url):
get_response = requests.get(url,stream=True)
file_name = url.split("/")[-1]
with open(file_name, 'wb') as f:
for chunk in get_response.iter_content(chunk_size=1024):
if chunk: # filter out keep-alive new chunks
f.write(chunk)
download("https://example.com/example.jpg")

Simple yet Python 2 & Python 3 compatible way comes with six library:
from six.moves import urllib
urllib.request.urlretrieve("http://www.example.com/songs/mp3.mp3", "mp3.mp3")
Following are the most commonly used calls for downloading files in python:
urllib.urlretrieve ('url_to_file', file_name)
urllib2.urlopen('url_to_file')
requests.get(url)
wget.download('url', file_name)
Note: urlopen and urlretrieve are found to perform relatively bad with downloading large files (size > 500 MB). requests.get stores the file in-memory until download is complete.
Wrote wget library in pure Python just for this purpose. It is pumped up urlretrieve with these features as of version 2.0.
In python3 you can use urllib3 and shutil libraires.
Download them by using pip or pip3 (Depending whether python3 is default or not)
pip3 install urllib3 shutil
Then run this code
import urllib.request
import shutil
url = "http://www.somewebsite.com/something.pdf"
output_file = "save_this_name.pdf"
with urllib.request.urlopen(url) as response, open(output_file, 'wb') as out_file:
shutil.copyfileobj(response, out_file)
Note that you download urllib3 but use urllib in code
I agree with Corey, urllib2 is more complete than urllib and should likely be the module used if you want to do more complex things, but to make the answers more complete, urllib is a simpler module if you want just the basics:
import urllib
response = urllib.urlopen('http://www.example.com/sound.mp3')
mp3 = response.read()
Will work fine. Or, if you don't want to deal with the "response" object you can call read() directly:
import urllib
mp3 = urllib.urlopen('http://www.example.com/sound.mp3').read()
If you have wget installed, you can use parallel_sync.
pip install parallel_sync
from parallel_sync import wget
urls = ['http://something.png', 'http://somthing.tar.gz', 'http://somthing.zip']
wget.download('/tmp', urls)
# or a single file:
wget.download('/tmp', urls[0], filenames='x.zip', extract=True)
Doc:
https://pythonhosted.org/parallel_sync/pages/examples.html
This is pretty powerful. It can download files in parallel, retry upon failure , and it can even download files on a remote machine.
You can get the progress feedback with urlretrieve as well:
def report(blocknr, blocksize, size):
current = blocknr*blocksize
sys.stdout.write("\r{0:.2f}%".format(100.0*current/size))
def downloadFile(url):
print "\n",url
fname = url.split('/')[-1]
print fname
urllib.urlretrieve(url, fname, report)
If speed matters to you, I made a small performance test for the modules urllib and wget, and regarding wget I tried once with status bar and once without. I took three different 500MB files to test with (different files- to eliminate the chance that there is some caching going on under the hood). Tested on debian machine, with python2.
First, these are the results (they are similar in different runs):
$ python wget_test.py
urlretrive_test : starting
urlretrive_test : 6.56
==============
wget_no_bar_test : starting
wget_no_bar_test : 7.20
==============
wget_with_bar_test : starting
100% [......................................................................] 541335552 / 541335552
wget_with_bar_test : 50.49
==============
The way I performed the test is using "profile" decorator. This is the full code:
import wget
import urllib
import time
from functools import wraps
def profile(func):
#wraps(func)
def inner(*args):
print func.__name__, ": starting"
start = time.time()
ret = func(*args)
end = time.time()
print func.__name__, ": {:.2f}".format(end - start)
return ret
return inner
url1 = 'http://host.com/500a.iso'
url2 = 'http://host.com/500b.iso'
url3 = 'http://host.com/500c.iso'
def do_nothing(*args):
pass
#profile
def urlretrive_test(url):
return urllib.urlretrieve(url)
#profile
def wget_no_bar_test(url):
return wget.download(url, out='/tmp/', bar=do_nothing)
#profile
def wget_with_bar_test(url):
return wget.download(url, out='/tmp/')
urlretrive_test(url1)
print '=============='
time.sleep(1)
wget_no_bar_test(url2)
print '=============='
time.sleep(1)
wget_with_bar_test(url3)
print '=============='
time.sleep(1)
urllib seems to be the fastest
Just for the sake of completeness, it is also possible to call any program for retrieving files using the subprocess package. Programs dedicated to retrieving files are more powerful than Python functions like urlretrieve. For example, wget can download directories recursively (-R), can deal with FTP, redirects, HTTP proxies, can avoid re-downloading existing files (-nc), and aria2 can do multi-connection downloads which can potentially speed up your downloads.
import subprocess
subprocess.check_output(['wget', '-O', 'example_output_file.html', 'https://example.com'])
In Jupyter Notebook, one can also call programs directly with the ! syntax:
!wget -O example_output_file.html https://example.com
Late answer, but for python>=3.6 you can use:
import dload
dload.save(url)
Install dload with:
pip3 install dload
Source code can be:
import urllib
sock = urllib.urlopen("http://diveintopython.org/")
htmlSource = sock.read()
sock.close()
print htmlSource

You can use PycURL on Python 2 and 3.
import pycurl
FILE_DEST = 'pycurl.html'
FILE_SRC = 'http://pycurl.io/'
with open(FILE_DEST, 'wb') as f:
c = pycurl.Curl()
c.setopt(c.URL, FILE_SRC)
c.setopt(c.WRITEDATA, f)

import requests as req
remote_url = 'http://www.example.com/sound.mp3'
local_file_name = 'sound.mp3'
data = req.get(remote_url)
# Save file data to local copy
with open(local_file_name, 'wb')as file:
file.write(data.content)
Now do something with the local copy of the remote file
This may be a little late, But I saw pabloG's code and couldn't help adding a os.system('cls') to make it look AWESOME! Check it out :
import urllib2,os
url = "http://download.thinkbroadband.com/10MB.zip"
file_name = url.split('/')[-1]
u = urllib2.urlopen(url)
f = open(file_name, 'wb')
meta = u.info()
file_size = int(meta.getheaders("Content-Length")[0])
print "Downloading: %s Bytes: %s" % (file_name, file_size)
os.system('cls')
file_size_dl = 0
block_sz = 8192
while True:
buffer = u.read(block_sz)
if not buffer:
break
file_size_dl += len(buffer)
f.write(buffer)
status = r"%10d [%3.2f%%]" % (file_size_dl, file_size_dl * 100. / file_size)
status = status + chr(8)*(len(status)+1)
print status,
f.close()
If running in an environment other than Windows, you will have to use something other then 'cls'. In MAC OS X and Linux it should be 'clear'.
urlretrieve and requests.get are simple, however the reality not.
I have fetched data for couple sites, including text and images, the above two probably solve most of the tasks. but for a more universal solution I suggest the use of urlopen. As it is included in Python 3 standard library, your code could run on any machine that run Python 3 without pre-installing site-package
import urllib.request
url_request = urllib.request.Request(url, headers=headers)
url_connect = urllib.request.urlopen(url_request)
#remember to open file in bytes mode
with open(filename, 'wb') as f:
while True:
buffer = url_connect.read(buffer_size)
if not buffer: break
#an integer value of size of written data
data_wrote = f.write(buffer)
#you could probably use with-open-as manner
url_connect.close()
This answer provides a solution to HTTP 403 Forbidden when downloading file over http using Python. I have tried only requests and urllib modules, the other module may provide something better, but this is the one I used to solve most of the problems.
New Api urllib3 based implementation
>>> import urllib3

>>> r = http.request('GET', 'your_url_goes_here')

>>> r.data
*****Response Data****
More info: https://pypi.org/project/urllib3/
You can python requests
import os
import requests
outfile = os.path.join(SAVE_DIR, file_name)
response = requests.get(URL, stream=True)
with open(outfile,'wb') as output:
output.write(response.content)
You can use shutil
import os
import requests
import shutil
outfile = os.path.join(SAVE_DIR, file_name)
response = requests.get(url, stream = True)
with open(outfile, 'wb') as f:
shutil.copyfileobj(response.content, f)
If you are downloading from restricted url, don't forget to include access token in headers
I wanted do download all the files from a webpage. I tried wget but it was failing so I decided for the Python route and I found this thread.
After reading it, I have made a little command line application, soupget, expanding on the excellent answers of PabloG and Stan and adding some useful options.
It uses BeatifulSoup to collect all the URLs of the page and then download the ones with the desired extension(s). Finally it can download multiple files in parallel.
Here it is:
#!/usr/bin/env python3
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
from __future__ import (division, absolute_import, print_function, unicode_literals)
import sys, os, argparse
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup

links = soup.find_all('a')
results = []
for tag in links:
link = tag.get('href', None)
if link is not None:
for e in extensions:
if e in link:
# Fallback for badly defined links
# checks for missing scheme or netloc
if bool(urlparse.urlparse(link).scheme) and bool(urlparse.urlparse(link).netloc):
results.append(link)
else:
new_url=urlparse.urljoin(page_url,link)
results.append(new_url)
return results
if __name__ == "__main__": # Only run if this file is called directly
# Command line arguments
parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(
description='Download all files from a webpage.')
parser.add_argument(
'-u', '--url',
help='Page url to request')
parser.add_argument(
'-e', '--ext',
nargs='+',
help='Extension(s) to find')
parser.add_argument(
'-d', '--dest',
default=None,
help='Destination where to save the files')
parser.add_argument(
'-p', '--par',
action='store_true', default=False,

args = parser.parse_args()
# Recover files to download
all_links = collect_all_url(args.url, args.ext)
# Download
if not args.par:
for l in all_links:
try:
filename = download_file(l, args.dest)
print(l)
except Exception as e:
print("Error while downloading: {}".format(e))
else:
from multiprocessing.pool import ThreadPool
results = ThreadPool(10).imap_unordered(
lambda x: download_file(x, args.dest), all_links)
for p in results:
print(p)
An example of its usage is:
python3 soupget.py -p -e <list of extensions> -d <destination_folder> -u <target_webpage>
And an actual example if you want to see it in action:
python3 soupget.py -p -e .xlsx .pdf .csv -u https://healthdata.gov/dataset/chemicals-cosmetics
Another possibility is with built-in http.client:
from http import HTTPStatus, client
from shutil import copyfileobj
# using https
connection = client.HTTPSConnection("www.example.com")
with connection.request("GET", "/noise.mp3") as response:
if response.status == HTTPStatus.OK:
copyfileobj(response, open("noise.mp3")
else:
raise Exception("request needs work")
The HTTPConnection object is considered “low-level” in that it performs the desired request once and assumes the developer will subclass it or script in a way to handle the nuances of HTTP. Libraries such as requests tend to handle more special cases such as automatically following redirects and so on.
You can use keras.utils.get_file to do it:
from tensorflow import keras
path_to_downloaded_file = keras.utils.get_file(
fname="file name",
origin="https://www.linktofile.com/link/to/file",
extract=True,
archive_format="zip", # downloaded file format
cache_dir="/", # cache and extract in current directory
)
Another way is to call an external process such as curl.exe. Curl by default displays a progress bar, average download speed, time left, and more all formatted neatly in a table.
Put curl.exe in the same directory as your script
from subprocess import call
url = ""
call(["curl", {url}, '--output', "song.mp3"])
Note: You cannot specify an output path with curl, so do an os.rename afterwards

with open('./Image.jpg','wb') as f:
f.write(response.content)
The issue is with the URL which you are using to download. Its not an issue, but a difference from other URL you have mentioned.
Let me explain
The URL https://offex.pl/images/detailed/11/94102_jeep_sbhn-8h.jpg returns an image as response with out any compression.
On the other hand, the shop URL https://sw19048.smartweb-static.com/upload_dir/shop/misutonida_ec-med-384-ix.jpg returns the image with gzip compression enabled in the headers.
So the raw response you get is compressed with gzip compression. You can decompress the response with gzip, if you know the compression is always gzip like below
import gzip
import io
image = result.raw.read()
buffer = io.BytesIO(image)
deflatedContent = gzip.GzipFile(fileobj=buffer)
open("D:/sample.jpg", "wb").write(deflatedContent.read())
Or you can use alternative libraries like urllib2 or similar ones, which takes care of decompression. I was trying to explain why it failed for your URL , but not for other. Hope this makes sense.
try :
import urllib2
def download_web_image(url):
request = urllib2.Request(url)
img = urllib2.urlopen(request).read()
with open('test.jpg', 'wb') as f:
f.write(img)
download_web_image("https://sw19048.smartweb-static.com/upload_dir/shop/misutonida_ec-med-384-ix.jpg")
It is working for your URL. I think the issue is with the request response of the used library.
from io import BytesIO
import requests
from PIL import Image
fileRequest = requests.get("https://sw19048.smartweb-static.com/upload_dir/shop/misutonida_ec-med-384-ix.jpg")
doc = Image.open(BytesIO(fileRequest.content))
doc.save("newFile.jpg")
