Description

@oppianmatt

Making a call to get transformations, some of them come back with spaces in the name like this:

 {u'allowed_for_strict': False,
  u'name': u'fl_progressive,t_primary/t_t_primary@2x jpg.t_primary@2x jpg.display@2x',
  u'used': False},

Now trying to use that (ignoring issue #41 for now), generates a 400 server error:

In [10]: name = 'fl_progressive,t_primary/t_t_primary@2x jpg.t_primary@2x jpg.display@2x'

In [11]: cloudinary.api.transformation(name)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    129 def transformation(transformation, **options):
    130     uri = ["transformations", transformation_string(transformation)]
--> 131     return call_api("get", uri, only(options, "max_results"), **options)

    226         e = sys.exc_info()[1]
--> 227         raise GeneralError("Error parsing server response (%d) - %s. Got - %s" % (response.code, body, e))
    228
    229     if "error" in result:

GeneralError: Error parsing server response (400) - . Got - No JSON object could be decoded

The fix it seems is to renencode the name using url encoding:

In [12]: name = 'fl_progressive,t_primary/t_t_primary@2x%20jpg.t_primary@2x%20jpg.display@2x'

In [13]: cloudinary.api.transformation(name)
Out[13]:
{u'allowed_for_strict': False,
 u'derived': [],
 u'info': [{u'flags': [u'progressive'], u'transformation': [u'primary']},
  {u'transformation': [u't_primary@2x jpg', u'display@2x']}],
 u'name': u'fl_progressive,t_primary/t_t_primary@2x jpg.t_primary@2x jpg.display@2x',
 u'used': False}
