11.20.6 Examples

The first example shows the most common usage of `cookielib`:

    import cookielib, urllib2
    cj = cookielib.CookieJar()
    opener = urllib2.build_opener(urllib2.HTTPCookieProcessor(cj))
    r = opener.open("http://example.com/")

This example illustrates how to open a URL using your Netscape, Mozilla, or Lynx cookies (assumes Unix/Netscape convention for location of the cookies file):

    import os, cookielib, urllib2
    cj = cookielib.MozillaCookieJar()
    cj.load(os.path.join(os.environ["HOME"], ".netscape/cookies.txt"))
    opener = urllib2.build_opener(urllib2.HTTPCookieProcessor(cj))
    r = opener.open("http://example.com/")

The next example illustrates the use of `DefaultCookiePolicy`. Turn on RFC 2965 cookies, be more strict about domains when setting and returning Netscape cookies, and block some domains from setting cookies or having them returned:

    import urllib2
    from cookielib import CookieJar, DefaultCookiePolicy
    policy = DefaultCookiePolicy(
        rfc2965=True, strict_ns_domain=Policy.DomainStrict,
        blocked_domains=["ads.net", ".ads.net"])
    cj = CookieJar(policy)
    opener = urllib2.build_opener(urllib2.HTTPCookieProcessor(cj))
    r = opener.open("http://example.com/")
