Following using piston

[pmartynov]

I want to follow a person using piston. What's wrong with this code? Is it something on piston side?

from graphenebase.objects import GrapheneObject, OrderedDict, String, json
from graphenebase.objects import isArgsThisClass
from piston.steem import Steem

class custom_json(GrapheneObject):
    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        if isArgsThisClass(self, args):
                self.data = args[0].data
        else:
            if len(args) == 1 and len(kwargs) == 0:
                kwargs = args[0]
            super().__init__(OrderedDict([
                ('json', String(json.dumps(kwargs["json"]))),
                ('required_auths', json.dumps(kwargs["required_auths"])),
                ('required_posting_auths', json.dumps(kwargs["required_posting_auths"])),
                ('id', String(kwargs["id"])),
            ]))

def follow(account, following, what):
    json_ = {
        'json': ['follow', {'follower': account, 'following': following, 'what': [what]}],
        'required_posting_auths': [account],
        'required_auths': [],
        'id': 'follow',
    }
    return custom_json(**json_)

steem = Steem(wif='PRIVATE POSTING KEY OF pmartynov')

follow_res = follow('pmartynov', 'xeroc', 'blog')
steem.finalizeOp(follow_res, 'pmartynov', 'posting')

self.rpc.verify_authority(tx) fails here with InsufficientAuthorityError for whatever reason.

Thanks!! I saw this too late and wrote the custom_json already in https://github.com/xeroc/python-steemlib/commit/a35257fab1773a489bb3a769205249379ee703c8 but I will add the follow call!

I'll look into the verify issue
