I don't have time right now to fork requests and implement this, but here is how httplib2 handles decompression:
from requests.
Gzip'd data is supported and seamlessly decompressed by the underlying urllib2 library.
Its possible the server isn't sending the gzipped data over:
r.headers['Accept-encoding'] = 'gzip'
from requests.
Thanks, you are correct.
from requests.
Actually, content-encoding
is set to gzip
and accept-encoding
is unset. Afaik, the two headers have independent meanings, so urllib2 should decompress the response.

Ah, hmm...
Well if I can make it function better than urllib2 I'm all for it.

Tonight I'll file a bug in urllib2. Let me see if I can fix this...
Edit: Sorry, I keep closing this by accident. I'm not used to the way GitHub orders the buttons.

Moving to #19

Update: v0.3.2 was just released which includes automatic gzip encoded content decompression.
