authentication realm?

[J V]

Hello,

I'm using EventGhost to post information to the http inputs on the Loxone Miniserver (e.g. now playing information). This worked using this Python script in Eventghost:

import urllib2
import urllib
# create a password manager
password_mgr = urllib2.HTTPPasswordMgrWithDefaultRealm()
# Add the username and password.
# If we knew the realm, we could use it instead of None.
top_level_url = "http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:xx/dev/sps/io/SetStudySqueezeboxAlbum/"+urllib.quote(eg.event.payload["Album"])
password_mgr.add_password(None, top_level_url, "admin", "admin")
handler = urllib2.HTTPBasicAuthHandler(password_mgr)
# create "opener" (OpenerDirector instance)
opener = urllib2.build_opener(handler)
# use the opener to fetch a URL
opener.open(top_level_url)
# Install the opener.
# Now all calls to urllib2.urlopen use our opener.
urllib2.install_opener(opener)

But now, I start getting this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
Python script "15", line 7, in <module>
top_level_url = "http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:xx/dev/sps/io/SetStudySqueezeboxAlbum/"+urllib.quote(eg.event.payload["Album"])
TypeError: 'NoneType' object is unsubscriptable

EDIT: It may be something with the authentication realm ( https://docs.python.org/3/howto/urllib2.html#id5 ),but now it looks more likely it is rather some wrong type in Python... So never mind the question...

Thanks!

Just in case anyone comes across this...
The authentication realm is "/dev/sps/io", but it works with "None".

My problem was in the eg.event.payload, so completely unrelated to Loxone.
