it seems you have an error on the url of your nodeos, you only need to provide your base url https://eos.greymass.com.
this is an example:

eos = Eos({
    'http_address': 'http://localhost:8888',
    'key_provider': 'your secret key here'
})

eos.get_currency_balance('eosio.token', 'ACCOUNTNAME', 'SYMBOL')

[outlier89]

I first tried base url (https://eos.greymass.com) but that was also not working. Traceback below:

[MerouaneBen]

can you share your code snippet? I don't understand why your nodeosd link is broken ?

[outlier89]

Below is the code snippet:
from eosjs_python import Eos
eos = Eos({'http_address': 'http://eos.greymass.com'})
eos.get_currency_balance('eosio.token', 'eoscanadacom', 'EOS')

[MerouaneBen]

you need to add you the private key when you initiate your Eos class . like this

eos = Eos({
    'http_address': 'http://localhost:8888',
    'key_provider': '973rhkldfnwdfeyt3ugddjkbfdkjfdif'
})```
also, make sure to update eosjs_python version to latest one (0.1.61)

[outlier89]

Thank you very much for the quick replies. However, I added my private key everytime. Just that I didn't disclose it. Maybe I should have pasted the below code snippet:

from eosjs_python import Eos
eos = Eos({'http_address': 'http://eos.greymass.com','key_provider': 'private key'})
eos.get_currency_balance('eosio.token', 'eoscanadacom', 'EOS')

Also, I upgraded the eosjs_python to 0.1.61 after you corrected the json parsing error some 10 hours back. But the exact same error is showing up. I guess it's because somewhere in the code, its adding \ to the node URL. Also its adding "/n", "/t" everywhere. Thanks

[MerouaneBen]

very wired issue, can you run nodejs script directly :

go  to js folder and then run this 
node GetCurrencyBalance.js 'http://127.0.0.1:8888' 'privatekey' 'eosio.token' 'accountName' 'symbol'

note: the arguments need to follow the same order provided in the exemple .
I've run a test on my end, it works without the private key:

[outlier89]

I just tried running nodejs script directly and finally it ran with some minor changes (URL without quotes and double quotes everywhere instead of single) in your script:
node GetCurrencyBalance.js http://eos.greymass.com "" "eosio.token" "eoscanadacom" "EOS"

But could you please help me with the python script?

Same problem here...does anyone know where is a problem?
