None-working Codebase API code

codebase.py

import requests

key = 'xxxx' # API key copied from https://dabapps.codebasehq.com/settings/profile

auth = ('dabapps/j4mie', key)

headers = {
    'Accept': 'application/xml',
    'Content-type': 'application/xml',
}

response = requests.get('http://api3.codebasehq.com/projects', auth=auth, headers=headers)

print response.status_code # prints 403

Solution from codebase support:

import requests
import base64

key = 'xxxx' # API key copied from https://dabapps.codebasehq.com/settings/profile

headers = {
    'Accept': 'application/xml',
    'Content-type': 'application/xml',
    'Authorization': base64.encodestring('%s:%s' % ('dabapps/j4mie', key)).replace('\n', ''),
}

response = requests.get('http://api3.codebasehq.com/projects', headers=headers)

print response.status_code # prints 200 - happy times

Note: this is no longer required with the latest version of Requests (0.7.1)
