Can't send email #100

Thanks for sharing this! I'm waiting for my relay board and then can test, but so far everything seems to be working other than the email settings. Every time I enter smtp as the alert type in config.json ("alert_type":smtp,) and restart the program it fails with some errors. Can anyone help please?

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ cd ~pi/garage-door-controller; python controller.py Traceback (most recent call last): File "controller.py", line 425, in controller = Controller(json.load(config_file)) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/json/init.py", line 291, in load **kw) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/json/init.py", line 339, in loads return _default_decoder.decode(s) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/json/decoder.py", line 364, in decode obj, end = self.raw_decode(s, idx=_w(s, 0).end()) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/json/decoder.py", line 382, in raw_decode raise ValueError("No JSON object could be decoded") ValueError: No JSON object could be decoded

So, new update - I put smtp in quotes and it gets a little further, but still kicks out an error - "error in deferred". Any thoughts?

Hi. Can you post the full error?

Actually things appear to be working now. I ran the code through a 2 to 3 converter and that seems to have fixed my issue. After the conversion I did have to go back and make some minor tweaks like changing http.client back to http.lib, but at least it works now!
