Watson Sync prompts "No JSON object could be decoded" #208

Hello!

I am using Watson on Ubuntu Bash installed on Windows 10 Subsystem for Linux. Everything works great except when I try to "watson sync" with my crick api, I get this message:

image

Appears to be something with JSON and/or python and/or pip. I've tried installing and re-installing these things to no avail. Any thoughts on what might be going on here? Any help is much appreciated!

How have you configured the Crick backend? Are you using your own instance of Crick?

I have an account set up on crick.io and have "https://api.crick.io/watson" and my token set up under [backend] in my watson config file. It works fine when I sync on iMac, but I get the aforementioned error when I try to sync on my new Windows laptop. My guess is that I've somehow configured something wrong somewhere in setting up Watson and/or Ubuntu Bash, but my trial and error so far has accomplished nothing.

I'm getting this error as well on Elementary OS Luna (Ubuntu 18.04 LTS), as well as Windows 10 set up with Anaconda (pip 18.1)

I reproduced this error but with other console log:

I remember that I synchronized with watson one time it is described there

https://tailordev.fr/blog/2017/06/07/le-lab-5-crick-a-backend-for-watson-time-tracker/

I think to fix this issue we need catch this error and convert it to simple friendy to end user tutorial about possible synchronization options

I had hope that I can write simple turorial because of I had setup synchronization with crick ealier but untortunatelly now I have error.

Setps to reproduce:

  1. I installed crick cli.
  2. Following after https://tailordev.fr/blog/2017/06/07/le-lab-5-crick-a-backend-for-watson-time-tracker/
    I connected cli with app.crick.io (logged in by github)
  3. I created some time frames by cli and send to backend. Ok.
  4. I lost my crick instance, removed or changed computer, I do not rememeber. Anyway I installed new fresh crick cli.
  5. I logged into app.crick.io and have seen my token (clicking on avatar and next on my token)
  6. I typed in console
watson config backend.url https://app.crick.io/watson
watson config backend.token <MY_TOKEN>

I do not have any time frame. I typed

watson sync

And there is error:
