AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'groups'

[AngelaKru]

Since about Thursday/Friday of last week, I've been getting this error (worked fine the day before, nothing since, though I can download files manually from Garmin Connect - have they changed their interface again? Anyone have a workaround or solution?):

Downloading files for user *****

Yeah, that error will happen if the "re.search()" function isn't finding anything, which is most likely an indicator that the interface has been changed. Again. I'll look into it more later this week and start on a workaround. You said it was working fine before, though?

Yes, working fine earlier last week, then around Thursday or Friday suddenly the error cropped up, and I've been unable to download via this script since then.

seems a single quotation was changed to double-quotation:

changed: response_url = re.search("response_url\s*=\s*'(.*)';", res.get_data()).groups()[0]
to: response_url = re.search("response_url\s*=\s*"(.*)";", res.get_data()).groups()[0]

and that seems to be working for me

Weird; that shouldn't work. The double quotes are now effectively closing and re-opening the regex string argument to search(); it should throw a syntax error. I'll look today if I can, otherwise can probably check it out tomorrow.

Looks like something got lost in the comment formatting:
response_url = re.search("response_url\s*=\s* \ "(.*) \ ";", res.get_data()).groups()[0]
(minus spaces around the quotes)
basically I just changed the 2 apostrophes surrounding the brackets to backslash-quotationmark

[magsol]

Ahhh, they're escaped, gotcha. Ok, that makes sense then. Though I'm kind of curious why the single quotes were working until now.

Dear @AngelaKru
How exactly looks the that changed line that you are mentioning, I have used the line in your comment, it does not function for me.

[AngelaKru]

@raffdoc -
The original line was this:
response_url = re.search("response_url\s*=\s*'(.*)';", res.get_data()).groups()[0]

now take the single quotes around (.) and add escaped double-quote (there's some trouble pasting that here as the quotes seem to be seen as special characters here): '(.)' becomes \ "(.*)\ " (but remove spaces)

[raffdoc]

Thanks @AngelaKru
