PyDect200 seems to be broken with Fritz OS7 about pydect200

hi thomas-villagers,
which fritzbox and which version (7.00/7.01) exactly do you use? And which devices have you connected or do you expect from the response?

[thomas-villagers]

Hi mperlet.
Thank you for the quick reply.
I have one FRITZ!DECT 200 wall plug switch and Fritz!OS 07.01 on a 7490.

I can only reproduce the error if I use the wrong password. The error handling is not good at this point yet.

In [1]: from PyDect200 import PyDect200
In [2]: f = PyDect200("correct_password")
In [3]: f.get_device_names()
Out[3]: 
{u'0876xxx': u'Steckdose 1',
 u'0875xxx': u'Steckdose 2'}

In [4]: f.sid
Out[4]: u'27bbc6f485e6e123'

In [5]: f2 = PyDect200("wrong_password")
In [6]: f2.get_device_names()
Out[6]: {u'inval': u'inval'}

In [7]: f2.sid
Out[7]: u'0000000000000000'

Have you possibly created a user with a username for the login? This is actually not implemented yet. I'll add that later.

[thomas-villagers]

yes, I think that's the point. I HAD to add a user with username a while ago for NAS related stuff.
Odd, before the upgrade to 7.01 your script worked fine.

Hey @thomas-villagers,
i added a username argument with PR: #7.
So after a pip install --upgrade PyDect200 you shoud get version 0.0.16.
You can use

f = PyDect200('password', username='fritzbox-user')

to create instance.
I also added a login_ok() method to check a valid fritzbox session id. Hopefully it'll help you.

great & works, thank you!
