Load remote markdown file from python

I need to read an .md file with python and store the content somewhere else.When I use this code, I get HTML, but I only need the markdown code.

doc_url = 'https://gitlab.com/quanzhang/cloud-deploy-component-prod/-/blob/main/README.md'with urllib.request.urlopen(doc_url) as url:  text = url.read()
