JSONDecodeError

[Yash Garg]

JSONDecodeError
Exception Value:	Expecting value: line 1 column 1 (char 0)

why i'm getting this error?

views.py-

ip_address = request.META.get('HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR', '')

response = requests.get('http://freegeoip.net/json/%s' % ip_address)

geodata = json.loads(response)

print(geodata['ip'])

print(geodata['country_name'])

print(geodata['latitude'])

print(geodata['longitude'])

Hi,

Maybe your module requests not present sufficient and check requests api module to use.

According to the documentation 

If the data being deserialized is not a valid JSON document, a JSONDecodeError will be raised.

however the object response, which it of type "requests.models.Response" n'est pas serializable according to the conversion table (mentioned in doc).

A solution would be to use

geodata = response.json()
