There seems to be a bit of a "bug" when corporations have bytes in their description which can't be encoded as unicode. Case and point: http://api.eve-online.com/corp/CorporationSheet.xml.aspx?corporationID=639241770

When retrieveing that, I get an UnicodeEncodeError. Stacktrace:
File "/home/kriberg/kode/leve/leve/../leve/core/eveapi.py" in __call__
228. return self._root(self._path, **kw)
File "/home/kriberg/kode/leve/leve/../leve/core/eveapi.py" in __call__
301. return _ParseXML(response, True, store and (lambda obj: cache.store(self._host, path, kw, response, obj)))
File "/home/kriberg/kode/leve/leve/../leve/core/eveapi.py" in _ParseXML
156. obj = _Parser().Parse(response, False)
File "/home/kriberg/kode/leve/leve/../leve/core/eveapi.py" in Parse
348. p.Parse(data, True)

Don't know if there's a sane way to handle it either. In this case, I tried enclosing it in a try/except, but the exception probably comes when parsing the entire response. Would be nice if I didn't need to discard the entire response. Perhaps it could per default set the current property to 'unicode error' or something.

for i in chars.characters:
    if charnom == i.name:
        charID = i.characterID
        break


charnom is user input, and chars is auth.account.Characters(). For some reason, charnom == i.name never evaluates true. Halp plix?

It is case sensitive, so that might be it ;)

Your name? Rolling Eyes
Either fix charnom to spell your name with the correct case, or just do if charnom.lower() == i.name.lower().

Oh right, yeah, I know it's case sensitive, I was wary of that. With some print statements about, I had a bit of a promble.

Please select the CEO from the above list:  Xyfu
<type 'str'> <type 'unicode'> Xyfu Xyfu Xyfu

Xyfu
Select a CEO blah blah blah:


The print statement lists: input type, i.name type, input, i.name, str(i.name). Also tried messing around with str(...) and unicode(...)s in the if, but to no avail.

check the example here. that has the same construct you're using and that works fine, so you must be doing something wonky with your input :P

Ok, I've no idea why, but my break wasn't working properly, causing the while True to keep going, even though I'd gotten my charID. Oh well.

Love your module, by the way, if I had any items you didn't, I'd happily donate them.

EDIT: Oh christ, most of the problems I had were because the Python Shell wasn't resetting, and clearing variables etc. All fixed now, yay for the command prompt.

Version 1.1.1 released (see OP).

This fixes corp.MemberSecurity (which did not properly return all data on members)

And i fund the bug:
Eve api is utf-8 and the parser is using unicode strings.

Here is a quick and dirty fix: http://eveapi.rasmusm.dk/eveapi-utf-8.patch

Hm?. I'm not quite sure that is actually a bug. See, it's up to the implementor to output with the correct encoding for the target (in your case a console window).
The objects returned by the parser are supposed to be regular/unicode strings. If you encode them they technically stop being strings and start being binary data that just so happens to be some representation of said string.

Edit: Oh and welcome to the headache that is python and encodings.

The problem is (as i understand it, because yes this is my first time with utf-8 in python) that the eveapi are returning strings in uft-8, but in _Parser.__str__ you are calling str() on the variable holding the utf-8 string, this will cast an exception if the utf-8 string do include char outside of unicode (like in the description of the ccp created event about the ore primae)

PS. I forgot to say thank you for making this nice api wrapper, other than this but (and i blame utf-8) its a pleasure to be working with.

Ah, well there -is- a bug but it's actually in the __str__ and not in the autocast function. To be honest the Row string representation was not really meant to be used for anything other than debugging stuff, but of course that has to work properly as well. I've fixed it and put the new version up on git.

The change doesn't make your code run as is though. You just can't print unicode stuff without providing an encoding for it. So, if you get the new eveapi.py, you still have to do this to actually output it to a console window:

print unicode(event).encode("utf8")

(unicode characters that have no ascii mapping will be unreadable though, as they'll be ... encoded :).

Hi,

I'm quite new with the whole API thing...I wanted to start out with the Python eveapi to write some scripts for my own use...Python is also new to me...so please bear with me if I talk rubbish :)

My problem:

When I try to run the 'example.py' , I get the following errors:

./example.py: line 3: watchList: command not found
./example.py: line 4: [1234567,: command not found
./example.py: line 6: ]: command not found
./example.py: line 8: syntax error near unexpected token `('
./example.py: line 8: `api = eveapi.EVEAPIConnection()'\

I've added the userid and api key and the name to the script as described, and placed the eveapi.py in the site-packages directory. The python version I use is 2.6.4 on a Fedora 13 host. Anyone a tip ?

Try copying the api module as text instead of html.

(are we going to keep doing this?)

Really, it works fine. I run that script before every release.

The error you get is a server-side response that you only get when there is something wrong with the credentials (or account status, perhaps).
