I'm trying to get the url of the minecraft skin through the api using python programming but I can't get the url.
This is the code I'm currently using...
import json
import requests
import base64
response = requests.get(f"https://sessionserver.mojang.com/session/minecraft/profile/11f1cc006cc84499a174bc9b7fa1982a")
id = response.json()["properties"][0]["value"]
####
msg = f"{id}"
msg_bytes = msg.encode('ascii')
base64_bytes = base64.b64decode(msg_bytes)
base64_msg = base64_bytes.decode('ascii')
print(base64_msg)
CodePudding user response:
You will have to convert the string to json first.
import requests
import base64
import json
response = requests.get(
f"https://sessionserver.mojang.com/session/minecraft/profile/11f1cc006cc84499a174bc9b7fa1982a"
)
msg = response.json()["properties"][0]["value"]
base64_bytes = base64.b64decode(msg)
print(json.loads(base64_bytes)["textures"]["SKIN"]["url"])
CodePudding user response:
You should always check that your HTTP request succeeds.
This is all you need:
from requests import get as GET
from base64 import b64decode as DECODE
from json import loads as LOADS
URL = 'https://sessionserver.mojang.com/session/minecraft/profile/11f1cc006cc84499a174bc9b7fa1982a'
(response := GET(URL)).raise_for_status()
data = response.json()['properties'][0]['value']
sd = LOADS(DECODE(data))
print(sd['textures']['SKIN']['url'])
Output:
http://textures.minecraft.net/texture/516ca747cee2cf895c02e0b4da4f1fe23495a140326538f960debaaa6fd67045
Note:
This code assumes that the JSON structures are as expected and that the keys always exist
