Aaron Black <aaron.bl...@jpl.nasa.gov> added the comment: Just to be clear, I don't know if the socket needs to support 64 character long host name sections, so here's an example url that is at the root of my problem that I'm pretty sure it should support:
>>> import socket >>> h = >>> "username:long_api_key0123456789012345678901234567890123456...@www.example.com" >>> socket.gethostbyname(h) Traceback (most recent call last): File "/Users/ablack/miniconda3/lib/python3.6/encodings/idna.py", line 165, in encode raise UnicodeError("label empty or too long") UnicodeError: label empty or too long The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception: Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> UnicodeError: encoding with 'idna' codec failed (UnicodeError: label empty or too long) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue32958> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
