Hi guys thanks again for your help. So I am using a stream object as outlined in the book, however its throwing 'no such file or directory'. But when I go to the url there is a jpg file attached. I thought it could be because the url does not end with the file extension, however I tried a different url and the same error occurred. What am I doing wrong?
def save_facebook_image(fbid): if auth.user: user_record = db.auth_user(auth.user.id) url = "https://graph.facebook.com/"+ str(fbid)+"/picture?type=large&redirect=false" request = urllib2.Request (url) the_response = urllib2.urlopen (request) json_data = json.load(the_response) direct_url = json_data['data']['url'] stream = open(direct_url, 'rb') user_record.update_record(image=stream) Traceback 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. 18.
