I have just completed making an application in Web2Py and it is working perfectly on my local machine. However, when I deploy it to PythonAnywhere and attempt to run the app, I get the following error:
JSONDecodeError: Expecting value: line 1 column 1 (char 0)
I'm not sure why this error is occurring since it works on my local machine. I am getting this error in almost every page of the app. Here is one function where I am getting the error:
def index():
"""Get parameters for current date to pass into url"""
day = time.strftime('%d')
month = time.strftime('%m')
year = time.strftime('%Y')
url = 'http://stats.nba.com/scores/#!/' + month + '/' + day + '/' + year
headers = {'User-Agent': 'Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_10_1) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/39.0.2171.99 Safari/537.36'}
"""Get results from response at NBA.com to obtain standings for Eastern and Western Conference"""
with requests.Session() as session:
session.headers = headers
session.get(url, headers=headers)
params = {
'DayOffset': '0',
'GameDate': month + '/' + day + '/' + year,
'LeagueID': '00'
}
response = session.get('http://stats.nba.com/stats/scoreboardV2?DayOffset=0&LeagueID=00&gameDate='+month+'%2F'+day+'%2F'+year, params=params)
results = response.json()
eastHeaders = results['resultSets'][4]['headers']
eastRows = results['resultSets'][4]['rowSet']
westHeaders = results['resultSets'][5]['headers']
westRows = results['resultSets'][5]['rowSet']
return dict(eastHeaders=eastHeaders,eastRows=eastRows,westHeaders=westHeaders,westRows=westRows)
The specific line where I am getting the error is:
results = response.json()
