How would you go about getting a completely unparsed response to a HTTPS request?
Are there any HTTP libraries that will allow you to get at the raw response, or is constructing a request manually using sockets the only way?
I'm specifically trying to see what newline characters the server is sending.
It depends on what you are going to do with the result. httplib.HTTPSConnection has set_debuglevel method which allows printing the response data to stdout (though each line is prefixed). For debugging purposes that was exactly what I needed. Not sure, it is what you need.
