What changed:

• [x] Moved code to __init__.py, removing the need for main.py
• [x] How modules are imported in __init__.py
• [x] Installation section of README.md

These are enhancements more than added functionality. Also, may I suggest using Codacy to find ways to clean up any potentially messy code?

I'm trying to encrypt a number but I'm getting this error:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/Users/Me/Desktop/Coding_Files/Python Projects/WeatherApp/app2.py", line 58, in <module> project.setCloudVar("request", s2py.encode(weather[y])) File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.8/lib/python3.8/site-packages/scratch2py/__init__.py", line 85, in encode text = text.lower() AttributeError: 'float' object has no attribute 'lower'

I understand this is because I'm trying to encrypt a decimal number known as a float but I'm not sure what to do about it or if this can be fixed in scratch2py.

Inside scratch2py/main.py the Scratch2Py sets chars to be global. In the init function you could set chars using self.chars = "...". Inside the rest of the code, change chars to self.chars

I removed modules imported more than once in main.py, as well as removing exception catching for WebSocket initialization. In addition to that, I used the requirements.txt for installation in README.md.

While it looks like I may be doing this again, the commits I made previously did not merge. That's why I'm doing it again.

I've created a file that displays a link to your (@The-Cloud-Dev ) Scratch profile, which shows up when creating a new issue. You can read more about issue templates here.

So recently, there is an issue with the log output, that denies the programm to access the logfile if executed as a non-administrative user. Im still searching for a solution on my own and will inform you if I found a solution. For now, I can just run the script as a root. I understand that this bug is maybe not caused by Scratch2Py and may not affect Windows or MacOS.

Do you think my project (Scratch2Python) would get confused with your project? If you think so, I'll ask the Scratch forums for a better name for the full release.

• Added type hinting
• Added docstrings to every function (excluding underscore functions)
• Improved some functions like user.getProjects()
• _small changes to readme
• some functions now raise exceptions when an error occurs instead of returning a string

Some other functions could be improved like using list comprehension instead of a for loop but i left those alone :)

Recently there's been a lot of messages in clouddata.turbowarp.org's logs about connections being closed with Error: Unknown message method: get (code 4000). I don't know exactly why a bunch of those have started appearing, but a GitHub code search has led me to this repository.

https://github.com/The-Cloud-Dev/scratch2py/blob/50fe60cad38c3955d6a3bf68138a50721429f41e/scratch2py/init.py#L791-L804

get is not a valid method. Connections that send that to clouddata.turbowarp.org will be closed because the server doesn't know how to handle it. The proper way to get a variable is to open a single connection and listen to the messages that the server sends you to record the most recent value on your own. That way you can look up the most recent value whenever you want without asking the server. If your current code works, then that's only a lucky coincidence because of other bugs in your code. There is a high probability that it will break in the future.

I suspect that this broken logic in this library may be responsible for nearly 400,000 (four hundred thousand) unnecessary short lived connections to clouddata.turbowarp.org per day. I do not appreciate this level of spam and may consider outright blocking users that continue to make these connections, which may or may not affect you and/or users of this library.

Nothing much to say here

Oh and @themysticsavages the vercel app is 404 rn

I've added the cloud class, so you can manage multiple Cloud acces at once. This is also easier to understand/read. Old: s2py.cloudConnect("PID") cloudData = s2py.readCloudVar("variableName") New: cloudProject = s2py.cloud("PID") cloudData = cloudProject.readCloudVar("variableName")

ATTENTION! MERGING THIS CAN CAUSE INCOMPITABILITY!

What about adding a wiki? The documentation can go there and you can browse the documentation on the sidebar. You can also search in a Github wiki.
