Q:

How do I download the artifacts from a jenkins build through python

How do I download the artifacts from a Jenkins build to my local machine using Python?

A:

I will assume that you want to download via http.
You might want to use GNU wget for example, but if you really want to use Python - check out How do I download a file over HTTP using Python?. Urllib2 provides an easy way to handle http requests.
This is providing that you will not need to perform any additional actions to get to the file (authentication etc.).
