Python-Requests close http connection

by

I think a more reliable way of closing a connection is to tell the sever explicitly to close it in a way compliant with HTTP specification:

HTTP/1.1 defines the “close” connection option for the sender to
signal that the connection will be closed after completion of the
response. For example,

   Connection: close

in either the request or the response header fields indicates that the
connection SHOULD NOT be considered `persistent’ (section 8.1) after
the current request/response is complete.

The Connection: close header is added to the actual request:

r = requests.post(url=url, data=body, headers={'Connection':'close'})
