HTTP/HTTPS control #43

It would be useful to have an option that forces gdatacopier to use HTTPS
for all connections. Effectively, that would the same as opening google
docs with https:// instead of http:// in its url.

As far as I can tell, gdatacopier uses both http and https in connection
and at least spreadsheet downloads are unencrypted.

Currently gdatacopier uses the default settings of the GData API. For future 
versions we can explore if GData 
API can be forced to use SSL for all connections.

Perhaps it would be enough to have an option that specifies the feed url.
gdd (http://www.1st-soft.net/gdd/) has such an option and it seems to work (I 
cannot
download spreadsheets over http where I live, so I see the difference instantly.

Thanks for sharing the link. If you have a look at the python client library 
provided
by Google, our code actually doesn't specify which feed URL to use etc. Its
encapsulated by the GData API. 

We are deliberately keep the code like that, so we can leverage from the client 
API
updates as Google puts them out.

Your request has been accepted as an enhancement and we will work towards 
getting
this incorporated, but something that conforms to our project code standards.

GData API has mixed support for this at the moment. We are going to differ 
implementing this as an option until 
GData Python API fully supports this.

Fixed in upcoming 3.0 release, GData 2.0.16+ required.

3.0 forces HTTPS
