I'm attempting to test my addon with the test versions of Kodi with python 3.  Ran into an issue because my addon currently uses script.module.requests.

The test version of Kodi crashes on the import call:

python:


try:

    import requests

except:

    xbmc.log(msg='script.module.requests is not installed and is required', level=xbmc.LOGERROR)

Nothing in the logs at the crash point.  Are the current script.module.* addons expected to work with python 3, or would a completely seperate installation be required with different script.module.* addons?

Module addons, representing mainstream Python libraries, like requests, are usually compatible with both Python 2 and 3. And you should really avoid blanket except: statements so that you could receive meaningful error messages.

I tried it both ways (with and without an except).  It crashes Kodi both ways with no meaningful error message.

I tried to import requests and do a simple request. Everything worked fine (Windows, 20180425-dfb6a5b0-feature_python3-x64).

Can you give more details about your setup or better share the debug log.

I could provide the OSX crash report as well if needed, but the issue seems repeatable if it's unexpected with the currently released script.module.requests
