botocore.response

class botocore.response.StreamingBody(raw_stream, content_length)

Wrapper class for an http response body.

This provides a few additional conveniences that do not exist in the urllib3 model:

• Set the timeout on the socket (i.e read() timeouts)
• Auto validation of content length, if the amount of bytes we read does not match the content length, an exception is raised.

close()

Close the underlying http response stream.

iter_chunks(chunk_size=1024)

Return an iterator to yield chunks of chunk_size bytes from the raw stream.

iter_lines(chunk_size=1024)

Return an iterator to yield lines from the raw stream.

This is achieved by reading chunk of bytes (of size chunk_size) at a time from the raw stream, and then yielding lines from there.

read(amt=None)

Read at most amt bytes from the stream.

If the amt argument is omitted, read all data.

set_socket_timeout(timeout)

Set the timeout seconds on the socket.
