问题
I currently have a little script that downloads a webpage and extracts some data I'm interested in. Nothing fancy.
Currently I'm downloading the page like so:
import commands
command = 'wget --output-document=- --quiet --http-user=USER --http-password=PASSWORD https://www.example.ca/page.aspx'
status, text = commands.getstatusoutput(command)
Although this works perfectly, I thought it'd make sense to remove the dependency on wget. I thought it should be trivial to convert the above to urllib2, but thus far I've had zero success. The Internet is full urllib2 examples, but I haven't found anything that matches my need for simple username and password HTTP authentication with a HTTPS server.

The requests module provides a modern API to HTTP/HTTPS capabilities.
import requests
url = 'https://www.someserver.com/toplevelurl/somepage.htm'
res = requests.get(url, auth=('USER', 'PASSWORD'))
status = res.status_code
text = res.text

this says, it should be straight forward
[as] long as your local Python has SSL support.
If you use just HTTP Basic Authentication, you must set different handler, as described here.
Quoting the example there:
import urllib2
theurl = 'http://www.someserver.com/toplevelurl/somepage.htm'
username = 'johnny'
password = 'XXXXXX'
# a great password
passman = urllib2.HTTPPasswordMgrWithDefaultRealm()
# this creates a password manager
passman.add_password(None, theurl, username, password)
# because we have put None at the start it will always
# use this username/password combination for urls
# for which `theurl` is a super-url
authhandler = urllib2.HTTPBasicAuthHandler(passman)
# create the AuthHandler
opener = urllib2.build_opener(authhandler)
urllib2.install_opener(opener)
# All calls to urllib2.urlopen will now use our handler
# Make sure not to include the protocol in with the URL, or
# HTTPPasswordMgrWithDefaultRealm will be very confused.
# You must (of course) use it when fetching the page though.
pagehandle = urllib2.urlopen(theurl)
# authentication is now handled automatically for us
If you do Digest, you'll have to set some additional headers, but they are the same regardless of SSL usage. Google for python+urllib2+http+digest.
Cheers,

The urllib2 documentation has an example of working with Basic Authentication:
