urllib2 (under windows) will auto-detect your proxy settings and use
those.
Normally that's a good thing (I guess), except when it's not !
How do I switch off this behaviour ? I'm behind a censoring proxy and
wanting to test things *locally*. IE is set to not use the proxy when
fetching local adresses, but urllib2 ignores that part of the setting
and uses the proxy for everything.
The only way I can test are changing my IE settings back and forth
every time. Most annoying.
I can see how to *add* a new proxy to urllib2, but not how to force it
to not use a proxy. I may well be missing something obvious though.
Anyone able to help ?

Wikkid... I'll try that. Nice one, thanks for your help.
It *still* means I have to have a different version for testing locally
- but it's better than the alternative.

Rats.. this answer is for urllib - *NOT* urllib2 !

The correct equivalent for urllib2 (in answer to my question !) is :
proxy_support = urllib2.ProxyHa ndler({})
opener = urllib2.build_o pener(proxy_sup port)
urllib2.install _opener(opener)
which is slightly more complicated but does exactly the same job !

Hello,
I have defined a function to set an opener for urllib2, this opener
defines any proxy and http authentication that is required.
If the proxy has authencation itself and requests an authenticated file
I get a HTTP status code of 401 (Unauthorized access of the file being
requested) I do see in the headers the Proxy-authorization and the
Authorization headers being sent for the request.

I'm trying to use a proxy server with urllib2.
So I have managed to get it to work by setting the environment
variable:
export HTTP_PROXY=127.0.0.1:8081
But I wanted to set it from the code. However, this does not set the proxy:
httpproxy = '127.0.0.1:3129'
proxy_support = urllib2.ProxyHandler({"http":"http://" + httpproxy})
opener = urllib2.build_opener(proxy_support, urllib2.HTTPHandler)
