On the version-specific download pages, you should see a link to both the downloadable file and a detached signature file. To verify the authenticity of the download, grab both files and then run this command: gpg --verify Python-3.6.2.tgz.asc. I am trying to create a download progress bar in python using the urllib2 http client. I've looked through the API (and on google) and it seems that urllib2 does not allow you to register progress hooks.

Urllib Download File

The following are 50 code examples for showing how to use urllib2.install_opener().They are extracted from open source Python projects. You can vote up the examples you like or vote down the exmaples you don't like.

I'm wondering how to display the file name and size before downloading and how to display the download progress of the file. Any help will be appreciated.

To display the filename: print f.name

To see all the cool things you can do with the file: dir(f)

I'm not sure I know what you mean when you say:

If you want to display the time it took for the download, then you might want to take a look at the timeit module.

I this is not what you are looking for, then please update the question, so I can try to give you a better answer
