Downloading from HTTPS

Question

I'll keep it simple:
I'd like to download a file via HTTPS; methods I've tried haven't worked (Network.HTTP.Wget, Network.Curl, Network.Download).
Suggestions?
Thanks!

This is a bad question. You need to explain why they haven't worked! I've had great success with both curl and wget. — sclv, Aug 03 '11 at 18:36

See the http-enumerator, it works with SSL as well as enumerator/iteratee IO (with the enumerator package). Hence you can pipe it into attoparsec via attoparsec-iterator and efficiently parse the data.

Cool package, at present, is listed as deprecated in favor of http-conduit. – Mittenchops Jan 08 '17 at 18:31

This question comes up every once in a while:

The solution I use currently is:

import Network.HTTP.Conduit
import qualified Data.ByteString.Lazy as L

main = simpleHttp "https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Noisebridge" >>= L.putStr

There is also an explanation of how to post with http-conduit in the link as well as a few answers with other methods.
