  • Python Default File Format for Download Download Files with Progress in Python
    python default file format for download Download files with progress in Python. This is a coding tip article. I will show you how to download files with progress in Python. The sauce here is to make use of the wget module. First, install the module into the environment. The wget module is pretty straight-forward, only one function to access, wget.download() . Let say we want to download this file http://download.geonames.org/export/zip/US.zip, the implementation will be following: The output will look like this: As you can see, it prints out the progress bar for us to know the progress of downloading, with current bytes retrieved with total bytes. The s econd parameter is to set output filename or directory for output file. There is another parameter, bar=callback(current, total, width=80) . This is to define how the progress bar is rendered to output screen. Canonical specification. The canonical version of the wheel format specification is now maintained at https://packaging.python.org/specifications/binary-distribution-format/ . This may contain amendments relative to this PEP. Abstract. This PEP describes a built-package format for Python called "wheel". A wheel is a ZIP-format archive with a specially formatted file name and the .whl extension. It contains a single distribution nearly as it would be installed according to PEP 376 with a particular installation scheme. Although a specialized installer is recommended, a wheel file may be installed by simply unpacking into site-packages with the standard 'unzip' tool while preserving enough information to spread its contents out onto their final paths at any later time.
