python - Check GitHub credentials validity -


i trying verify github credentials python.

i have tried this:

import urllib2, base64  username = "test@example.com" password = "password"  request = urllib2.request("https://github.com/") base64string = base64.encodestring('%s:%s' % (username, password)).replace('\n', '') request.add_header("authorization", "basic %s" % base64string)    result = urllib2.urlopen(request)  if result.code == 200:     print "success" else:     print "error" 

but returns success, wrong password. doing wrong?

change line

request = urllib2.request("https://github.com/") 

to

request = urllib2.request("https://api.github.com/") 

try change credentials. working me.

tested on

~/ $ python2 --version python 2.7.6 ~/ $ uname -a linux wlysenko-aspire 3.13.0-37-generic #64-ubuntu smp mon sep 22 21:28:38 utc 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 gnu/linux
