python图片保存,python从url保存图像

I got a problem when I am using python to save an image from url either by urllib2 request or urllib.urlretrieve. That is the url of the image is valid. I could download it manually using the explorer. However, when I use python to download the image, the file cannot be opened. I use Mac OS preview to view the image. Thank you!

UPDATE:

The code is as follow

def downloadImage(self):

request = urllib2.Request(self.url)

pic = urllib2.urlopen(request)

print "downloading: " + self.url

print self.fileName

filePath = localSaveRoot + self.catalog + self.fileName + Picture.postfix

# urllib.urlretrieve(self.url, filePath)

with open(filePath, 'wb') as localFile:

localFile.write(pic.read())

This URL is valid and I can save it through the browser but the python code would download a file that cannot be opened. The Preview says "It may be damaged or use a file format that Preview doesn't recognize."

I compare the image that I download by Python and the one that I download manually through the browser. The size of the former one is several byte smaller. So it seems that the file is uncompleted, but I don't know why python cannot completely download it.

A sample code that works for me on Windows:

with open('pic1.jpg', 'wb') as handle:

response = requests.get(pic_url, stream=True)

if not response.ok:

print response

for block in response.iter_content(1024):

if not block:

break

handle.write(block)
