Adopt Community Package for Data Fetching #175

Description

@mandli

Found this community supported package for fetching data files instead of using the direct libraries urllib and the such. Provides:

  • Way better error handling than we currently have. No more data files existing that acutally contain http fetch request failures rather than data.
  • Built-in abilities to handle multiple types of data, e.g. zip.
  • Can fetch using more than just URLs, e.g. DOIs.
  • Also handles multiple protocols.
