Python Curl To Requests

It's pretty similar to using it in C. Just check the documentation on
the pycurl web site and also use the curl documentation. In
particular
http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/curl_easy_setopt.html

Where you might do curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, '...'); in C,
you would instead do curl.setopt(pycurl.URL, '...') in Python.

Convert Curl To Python Requests

Do as Daniel suggests to get the C code, and work from there. I have
pasted some Python code which should do the same as your curl command
as a place to start.

The code is so simple it should not need any explanation.

#!/usr/bin/env python

import pycurl

def main():
curl = pycurl.Curl()
if not curl:
print 'Could not create Curl handle'
return

curl.setopt(pycurl.URL, 'https://manage.com/client/api')
curl.setopt(pycurl.NOPROGRESS, True)
curl.setopt(pycurl.POSTFIELDS, 'command=listCapacity&zoneId=1&podId=1')
curl.setopt(pycurl.USERAGENT, '...')
curl.setopt(pycurl.COOKIE, 'JSESSIONID=webD~C')
curl.setopt(pycurl.SSL_VERIFYPEER, False)

curl.perform()

if __name__ '__main__':
main()

But, the above is not ideal, because how do you generate the POSTFIELDS string?

It's better to do this:

postfields = [('command', 'listCapacity'), ('zoneId', '1'), ('podId', '1')]
curl.setopt(pycurl.HTTPPOST, postfields)

Or something like that anyway...
