"Image Downloader and SecuritySpy Helper Error"

Seeing identical errors with the new/latest version in two different environments (two homes).

" Image Downloader and SecuritySpy Helper Error Error in plugin execution ExecuteAction:

File "plugin.py", line 428, in downloadImage
File "plugin.py", line 139, in getImage
type: can only concatenate str (not "bytes") to str"

No images retrieved anymore.

i'm being prompted to upgrade this plugin but the link is broken:

https://www.indigodomo.com/pluginstore/162/release/1.8/

Where are you getting that URL?

In any event, you can just go to the plugin's page in the store and click the download button.

Never mind, now to figure out what's broken...

Ok, so the problem is that the developer isn't following the required pattern for naming releases. His latest release is tagged 1.8 in his github repo, but we require that release tags be X.Y.Z (must contain 3 numbers).

@vtmikel, if you're watching, you might want to delete your current 1.8 release and recreate it as 1.8.0 and it'll work correctly with the store and plugin update checks.

i gather you figured it out (the landing page after following the Indigo 'Download New Version' menu).

Any ideas on how to fix the bug?

Did you install version 1.8? https://github.com/mlamoure/indigo-secu ... Plugin.zip

Sure. The issue began with 1.8 - no problems with the older version (except old python and Intel only)

Ah, sorry. confused the posters.

Yeah, that's a common Python2 to Python3 conversion error. Should be easy for the developer to fix.

OK. Did not realize that. I'll fix on next version

I'll be posting an update to this plugin shortly. I've been testing some updates.

Works now (v1.8.1), but only for .jpg

Could you show me a screen shot of your Action Settings on the one that is throwing an error?

Sure.
