I am trying to use urllib.parse.urlencode() method in one of my scripts. import urllib
#!/usr/bin/python3.2 import urllib data = urllib.parse.urlencode({'type': 'device_code','client_id': 150792241632891})
It was working before but now I get following error.
Output
Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/rakesh/programming/test.py", line 8, in <module> data = urllib.parse.urlencode({'type': 'device_code','client_id': 150792241632891}) AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'parse'
Initially I doubt my python shell but when I checked it is using python version 3.2 which should be fiine.
Now I am totally perplexed why python shell is behaving this way. Am I missing something here?
Thanks
In Python 3+, You can URL encode any string using the quote() function provided by urllib. parse package. The quote() function by default uses UTF-8 encoding scheme.
parse. urlencode() method can be used for generating the query string of a URL or data for a POST request.
The urllib module in Python 3 allows you access websites via your program. This opens up as many doors for your programs as the internet opens up for you. urllib in Python 3 is slightly different than urllib2 in Python 2, but they are mostly the same.
You're not showing the imports in your program, so I can't be sure, but I bet you did
import urllib
which will not import and re-export the separate module urllib.parse
. Do
import urllib.parse
instead.
(import urllib
is rather senseless in Python 3.x, since all the functionality is in the submodules and these are not imported by the toplevel module.)
