When I search for "python b64encode", I see:
https://duckduckgo.com/html?q=python%20b64encode
Here is part of the answer: b64encode expects 'bytes', not 'string':
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8908287/why-do-i-need-b-to-encode-a
-string-with-base64/41437531#41437531
Here is an explanation of the difference between 'bytes' and 'string':
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6224052/what-is-the-difference-
between-a-string-and-a-byte-string
Here is the base64.b64encode reference documentation:
https://docs.python.org/3.5/library/base64.html#base64.b64encode
You didn't say if you were running python 2 or python 3. But if you're
getting that error, you're probably running python 3.
Here is some code that should work for python 3:
{{{
with
open("/home/anuradha/chutney/net/nodes/000a/keys/ed25519_master_id_public_key",
'rb') as f:
}}}
You might also want to delete this line, because it could cause errors:
{{{
print(rest)
}}}
