How to Use Python Subprocess Curl and Pipe to File: Best Practices?

14 Replies, 1224 Views

Your method for Python subprocess curl and pipe to file is totally fine, but if you wanna avoid external tools like curl, you can use `http.client` or `urllib` built into Python.

Example:
```python
from urllib.request import urlopen
with urlopen("https://example.com") as response:
with open("output.txt", "wb") as file:
file.write(response.read())
```

But if you’re sticking with curl, your code is clean and works well. Just add some error handling, and you’re golden.
