canceling a long running http get request with urllib.request python3 [on hold]

0

I have an xml stream which I open using a get request (urllib.request python3).

quit = False

with contextlib.closing(urllib.request.urlopen(url)) as request:

    while not quit:

        print(request.read1(-1))

I set quit=True from another thread.

I would like to know how I can cancel this request. My main problem is that read or read1 is blocking and I can't figure out how to get out.

My server has periods when it sends no data and during this time I am unable to close the connection from my end as i'm stuck in this read.
