Question

It’s my first question here.
Today, I’ve done a little application using wxPython: a simple Megaupload Downloader, but yet, it doesn’t support premium accounts.
Now I would like to know how to download from MU with a login (free or premium user).

I’m very new to Python, so please don’t be specific and “professional”.
I used to download files with urlretrieve but, but is there a way to pass “arguments” or something to be able to log in as a premium user ?
Thank you. 😀

EDIT =

News: new help needed xD

After trying with PyCUrl, htmllib2 and mechanize, I’ve done the login with urllib2 and cookiejar (the requested html says the username).

But when I start download a file, surely the server doesn’t keep my login, in fact the downloaded file seems corrupted (I changed wait time from 45 to 25 seconds).

How can I download a file from MegaUpload keeping my previously done login? Thanks for your patient 😀

Answer 1

Questions like this are usually frowned upon, they are very broad, and there are already an abundance of answers if you just search on google.

You can use urllib, or mechanize, or any library you can make an http post request with.
megaupload looks to have the form values

login:1
redir:1
username:
password:

just post those values at http://megaupload.com/?c=login

all you should have to do is set your username and password to the correct values!
