Question

Currently have this working and its downloading the files correctly but is placing them in the same folder where it is being ran from, but how would i go about say moving these to c:\downloads or something like this?

urllib.urlretrieve(url, filename)
Was it helpful?

Solution

filename is basically your reference to the file and where it is stored. Using the following command

fullfilename = os.path.join(myPath, filename)
urllib.urlretrieve(url, fullfilename)

You should be able to store it at myPath.

Don't forget to place

import os

at the top of your script..
