How to read the response from HTTP post

[Mao]

My HTTP post returns me <Response object at 3f956710>.

What's the meaning of this? I suppose the response has been stored at 3f956710.

How can I read the response?

Thank you.

@Mao said in How to read the response from HTTP post:

I'm using an updated urequests lib including the "encode_basic_auth" function, although I don't think this results in the error.

Hello Mao, can you tell me, where you found a urequests lib with a function for basic auth, which works? I need that for my project.

Kind regards,

Right, that means the response is not in a JSON format. You can do without the line as well. r should contain the response from the request and you can also use

r.text()
r.content()

Hi Gijs,

It returns me the following error.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "main.py", line 40, in <module>
  File "/flash/lib/urequests.py", line 32, in json
ValueError: syntax error in JSON

Type "help()" for more information.

Line 40 of my code is HTTP_res = r.json()
Line 32 of my urequests lib is

    def json(self):                                  #line 30
        import ujson                                 #line 31
        return ujson.loads(self.content)             #line 32

I'm using an updated urequests lib including the "encode_basic_auth" function, although I don't think this results in the error.

I assume you are using urequests here
The pointer to the objects location is indeed 3f956710, you can use the following to get the result:

r = requests.post(url, data=data)
results = r.json()
print (results)
