Hi,

 

I am trying to connect to the HD 12 rainmachine using a python script locally for a home automation program. I keep getting certificate errors because the non verifiable certificate can't be verified. No surprise. In curl, I can add -k to ignore this, but I am struggling to figure out how to do the same.

Any help would be great!

Here is a very simple example:

 

from urllib2 import Request, urlopen

request = Request(

'https://xxx-my-ip-address-xxx:8080/api/4/zone/1/stop?accesstoken=xxx-my-access-token-goes-here-xxxx'

)

response_body = urlopen(request).read()

print response_body

  Hey Geoff,

  I played around this and had some success using the following code (tested on RainMachine Mini-8).

  #!/usr/bin/python
  import requests

  #Disable cert warning
  requests.packages.urllib3.disable_warnings()

  #Set variables
  rm_accesstoken = "xxx-my-access-token-goes-here-xxxx"
  rm_host = "xxx-my-ip-address-xxx"

  # Create request and set cookies
  request_path = ('https://%s:8080/api/4/machine/time' % rm_host)
  rm_cookies = dict(access_token=rm_accesstoken)

  # Request (verify=False disables cert check)
  r = requests.get(request_path, cookies = rm_cookies, verify=False)
  print r.text

  Regards,
  Sam
