I solved by calling
r = requests.head(url, allow_redirects=True)
url = r.url
before calling get_favicon_url().
Any chance of restricting types? My app can't handle SVG.
I'm looking at download_favicon() and it seems that your check for valid characters isn't working.
valid_chars = "-_.() %s%s" % (string.ascii_letters, string.digits)
sanitized_filename = "".join([x if valid_chars else "" for x in favicon_filename])
if valid_chars
condition is always True, so won't actually filter anything.
I'm handling a yahoo RSS stream with urls like this:
http://us.rd.yahoo.com/finance/external/xzdnet/rss/SIG=12nbpkhsr/*http://www.zdnet.com/article/bt-attains-5gbps-over-next-gen-g-fast/%23ftag=YHFb1d24ec
Using get_favicon_url(), I always get the yahoo icon, not the other one. But browsing to that URL I go to the second one. When I look with curl, I see a 302 redirect.
