Accept Cookies in Python

Question

How can I accept cookies in a python script?

Answer 1

It's unclear whether you want a client-side or a server-side solution.

For client-side, cookielib will work fine. This answer and a few web tutorials offer more in-depth explanations.

If this is a server-side problem, you should be using a framework that takes care of all the boilerplate. I really like how CherryPy and web.py handle them, but the API is pretty simple in any library.
