download file with custom folder path but generated file name

Question

I am downloading a file like so

downloadurl = "www.site.com/my_link"

urllib.request.urlretrieve(downloadurl, "/root/watch/0.txt")

However, I would like to download the file to a specific folder but have the file name be generated from the link (like the file name if I entered the download url in a web browser and the file name is automatically generated. Is this possible in python?

I cannot parse the link as the file name is not present in the link.

如果downloadurl在最后一个url部分包含文件名，你可以这样做：

urllib.request.urlretrieve(downloadurl, "/root/watch/" + downloadurl[downloadurl.rindex("/") + 1:])
