gzipRequest not working for python3

zli25 opened this issue 7 years ago · comments

The default gzipRequest is set to True, but it doesn't work in python3. Got an error TypeError: string argument expected, got 'bytes' when executing self.fileobj.write(b'\037\213' in file gzip.py.

In python3, BytesIo should be used instead of StringIO, and thus a potential fix would be changing self.__buf = StringIO("") to self.__buf = BytesIO(b"") in file beatbox.py at line 283

Its using BytesIO, see https://github.com/superfell/Beatbox/blob/master/beatbox/_beatbox.py#L319 I suspect you either have out of date code, or are using one of the forks.

Thanks for the prompt reply. I installed this package via pip install, but it seems that I am using out of date code. Wonder if I can install this updated version using pip. Thanks!
