API auth /getinfo 404 error

[MG-ng]

Hi, I have a question about communicating with LndHub using python requests. I think I don't get the authorization correctly.

First I type import requests then

r1 = requests.post( "http://<localip>:3000/create", headers={ 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin': '*', 'Content-Type': 'application/json' } )

which works well and then

r2 = requests.post( "http://<localip>:3000/auth?type=auth", headers={ 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin': '*', 'Content-Type': 'application/json' }, json={ 'login': '<loginFromPreviousResponse>', 'password': '<passFromPreviousResponse>' })

which also works fine and delivers with r2.json() a refresh_token and an access_token.

r3 = requests.post( "http://<localip>:3000/getinfo", headers={ 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin': '*', 'Content-Type': 'application/json', 'Authorization': 'Bearer <access_tokenFromPreviousResponse>' } )

But if I do now a r3.json() or a r3.content it prints 404 or b'404'.

I don't know what I'm doing wrong :/

I looked at the BlueWallet code and translated this param to a header field https://github.com/BlueWallet/BlueWallet/blob/13708383437d3c66ea536250e46c88138e9827d0/class/wallets/lightning-custodian-wallet.js#L565

I tried to send the same as the BlueWallet app but somehow it don't work. The log also just prints a 404:

Sep 25 16:34:02 raspi node[8076]: 97f165cf-b936-48ab-b944-a838a4b8d71c <sendingDeviceIP> - - [25/Sep/2021:14:34:02 +0000] "POST /info HTTP/1.1" 404 3 "-" "python-requests/2.25.1"

Thank you for your help!

sorry cant help here, i wrote this like 3 years ago and totally don't remember how it works under the hood. but other people create their own API clients (like lnbits, you could look there), and everything works

Turns out it was just me using .post() instead of .get() despite the docs saying clearly that you should use get on the getinfo function 😅

Thank you very much! LNbits is very interesting (but server side) and during the search for other python clients I found the solution here
