Python, ACI Rest API and https errors.

[stevemadel]

I am trying to use the python code located here .  I am running into the following error when I do this.  Does anybody know how to disable this error?

/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/urllib3-1.22-py2.7.egg/urllib3/connectionpool.py:858: InsecureRequestWarning: Unverified HTTPS request is being made. Adding certificate verification is strongly advised. See: https://urllib3.readthedocs.io/en/latest/advanced-usage.html#ssl-warnings
  InsecureRequestWarning)

Hi there,

Try adding this to your code:

import requests
requests.packages.urllib3.disable_warnings()

cheers,

Seb.

...or if that doesn't work filter it via the CLI:

python -Wignore::InsecureRequestWarning your_script.py

Both of those solutions work for this  code, however when I try and use this  code I get the following error.

Traceback (most recent call last):

I'm not able to view you pastebi source ode for some reason...

anyhow you should be able to side step this error by telling requests not to verify the SSL Cert being offered by 192.168.1.1, by adding the parameter verify=False

Something like:

response = session.send(request_pr, verify=False)

cheers,

Seb.

Here is the code that was added in.  It was added between moDir.login() and moDir.logout()

url = 'https://192.168.1.1/api/node/class/procEntity.xml'

ret = requests.get(url)

ret.staus_code

[Seb Rupik]

OK make this change:

ret = requests.get(url, verify=False)

In case you are interested take a look at:

https://github.com/requests/requests/blob/master/requests/sessions.py

...starting a line 466. The parameter we are interested in states:

     :param verify: (optional) Either a boolean, in which case it controls whether we verify
            the server's TLS certificate, or a string, in which case it must be a path
            to a CA bundle to use. Defaults to ``True``.

cheers,

Seb.
