I am not able to use the module contextIO as explained on this page....
https://github.com/contextio/Python-ContextIO
I get an error where I expect to see the email message contents.
import contextio as c
CONSUMER_KEY = 'dummy_key'
CONSUMER_SECRET = 'dummy_secret'
context_io = c.ContextIO(
consumer_key=CONSUMER_KEY,
consumer_secret=CONSUMER_SECRET
)
accounts = context_io.get_accounts(email='dummy.email@gmail.com')
params = {
'id': 'dummy_id'
}
account = c.Account(context_io, params)
params = {
'message_id': 'dummy_message_id'
}
message = c.Message(account, params)
message.get()
Traceback (most recent call last):

How do I know if this error is due to the NULL returned as message object? And what is NoneType?
>>> type(message)
<class 'contextio.Message'>
>>> dir(message)

>>> type(message.subject)
<type 'NoneType'>
Why is my code not returning anything even if I am supplying the correct credentials?
This error happens because the Context.IO lib is expecting a JSON response, but it's not getting it. This is where it blows up:
File "contextio/__init__.py", line 185, in _handle_request_error
response_json = response.json()
This may be a problem with the service, returning an invalid JSON body or invalid header, but most likely, your request is failing for some other reason and the library isn't prepared to deal with the error.
Try going into the line above, setting a break there and check what's the value of response.content. If that's an error message, it will give you a hint into what's wrong, and why the library fails. If it's valid JSON, check the Content-Type header and make sure it's application/json.
