Due to the split of urllib2 into parts (urllib.error, urllib.parse, urllib.request) the library cannot be used with python 3.6.6.
Once the client code updated to urllib another problem occurs:
../python3.6/site-packages/eureka_client/requests.py", line 46, in create
response = request.opener.open(request)
File "/usr/lib/python3.6/urllib/request.py", line 524, in open
req = meth(req)
File "/usr/lib/python3.6/urllib/request.py", line 1248, in do_request
raise TypeError(msg)
TypeError: POST data should be bytes, an iterable of bytes, or a file object. It cannot be of type str.
On SO recommend to encode url into utf-8:
data = urllib.parse.urlencode(data)
data = data.encode('utf-8')
But then another error follows:
..lib/python3.6/site-packages/eureka_client/requests.py", line 42, in create
data = urllib.parse.urlencode(data) # I added this
File "/usr/lib/python3.6/urllib/parse.py", line 864, in urlencode
"or mapping object").with_traceback(tb)
File "/usr/lib/python3.6/urllib/parse.py", line 856, in urlencode
raise TypeError
TypeError: not a valid non-string sequence or mapping object
How to fix it?
