To fix the problem, replace

 conn.set_var("Username", variable)

with

 conn.set_var("Username", str(variable))

Or update to the latest scratchattach version using

 pip install scratchattach --upgrade

What caused you to rename it? Just curious.

It sounded like it was the name of a python file before

update the module, it's called scratchattach now and shouldn't be causing circular import error because it's not named scratch3.py anymore

pip install scratchattach --upgrade

scratchAttach.get_var(“project_id”, “variable”)
(thats whati get from the github docs, you should read it)
this function returns the value of the variable, so you can kind catch it with
variableOfYourChoice = scratch3.get_var(“project_id”, “variable”)

oh im stupid, cloud variable to python variable..
so the first thing you wanna do is create an VALID session, which you do by doing
session = scratchattach.login(“username”, “password”)
not that the password must be correct.
connection = session.connect_cloud(project_id=“project_id”)
this sends a handshake to the scratch servers to know you want to connect to the cloud
connection.set_var(“variable”, “value”)
this now sets the variable on the project you specified when connecting to the project with session.connect_cloud(project_id=“yourprojectid”)
so thats it. just replace everything that is in “” with the values you have

how are you

Why would a person name it “scratch3” or something like that when it can only do cloud stuff? He changed it because it can only do cloud stuff and “scratch3” implies that it can do everything in the scratch website

Yeah. I asked the same question.

That isn't how you combine strings in python.

You can use an addition operator:

text = "This project has " + str(project.views) + " Views and " + str(project.loves) + " Loves"

Or a f-string:

text = f"This project has {project.views} Views and {project.loves} Loves"

Or others like `str.format`

Sounds hard but good. I hope to see more projects using it in the future.

this is really good! I'm using it on one of my projects right now!

What server do you recommend? Replit shuts down all the time for me? I have to keep it free though…

Personally I'd use Replit + some library to have the server serve a HTTP page somewhere + some pinger that pings said page (uptimerobot or verixion's pinger also on replit)

If replit shuts down, you're most likely using it wrongly
