http.client.HTTPConnection.getresponse()

HTTPConnection.getresponse() Should be called after a request is sent to get the response from the server. Returns an HTTPResponse instance. Note Note that you must have read the whole response before you can send a new request to the server. Changed in version 3.5: If a ConnectionError or subclass is raised, the HTTPConnection object will be ready to reconnect when a new request is sent.

http.client.HTTPConnection.endheaders()

HTTPConnection.endheaders(message_body=None) Send a blank line to the server, signalling the end of the headers. The optional message_body argument can be used to pass a message body associated with the request. The message body will be sent in the same packet as the message headers if it is string, otherwise it is sent in a separate packet.
