http.client.HTTPSConnection and user authentication?

[geekgeek]

I sorted it out myself. If someone is looking for the answer, here is the code:

import http.client
import ssl
import ubase64

user="USERNAME"
passwd="PASSWORD"

headers = {"Authorization":"Basic {}".format(base64.b64encode(bytes(f"{user}:{passwd}","utf-8")).decode("ascii"))}
 
context = ssl.SSLContext(ssl.PROTOCOL_TLSv1)
context.verify_mode = ssl.CERT_REQUIRED
context.load_verify_locations('mywonca.crt')
conn = http.client.HTTPSConnection('somedomain.com', 443, context=context)
conn.request("GET","/rest/api/something",headers=headers)
r1 = conn.getresponse()
