authentication with urllib3
I am trying to connect to a webpage using urllib3. The code is provided below.
import urllib3
http=urllib3.PoolManager()
fields={'username':'abc','password':'xyz'}
r=http.request('GET',url,fields)
If we assume that url is some webpage which needs to be authenticated using username and password, am i using the right code to authenticate ?
I have did this using urllib2 very comfortably but i was not able to do the same thing using urllib3.
Many Thanks

Assuming you're trying to do Basic Authentication, then you need to put the username and password encoded in an authorization header. Here's one way to do that using the urllib3.util.make_headers helper:
import urllib3
http = urllib3.PoolManager()
url = '...'
headers = urllib3.util.make_headers(basic_auth='abc:xyz')
r = http.request('GET', url, headers=headers)

When using make_headers, how do I set a 'Cache-Control' header? If that is not possible, how do I construct a header with both authentication and caching control?

I guess is like this: headers = {'Authorization':'Basic %s' % b64encode('user:pass'), 'Cache-Control':'no-cache,max-age=0', 'Pragma':'no-cache'}

@kassold Our make_headers helpers doesn't have a mode for modifying the cache control. I would be +1 to adding something like this if you'd be interested in making a PR. :) (Opened an issue here github.com/shazow/urllib3/issues/393)
