Remove the new line “\n” from base64 encoded strings in Python3?

Question

I\'m trying to make a HTTPS connection in Python3 and when I try to encode my username and password the base64 encodebytes method returns the encoded v

Answer 1

I concur with Mandar's observation that base64.xxxx_encode() would produce output without line wrap \n.

For those who want a more confident understanding than merely an observation, these are the official promise (sort of), that I can find on this topic. The Python 3 documentation does mention base64.encode(...) would add newlines after every 76 bytes of output. Comparing to that, all other *_encode(...) functions do not mention their linewrap behavior at all, which can argurably be considered as "no line wrap behavior". For what it's worth, the Python 2 documentation does not mention anything about line wrap at all.
