Trying to save bytes in StringField

[PokeTheCiTy]

Hi,

in Class MongoengineAssociationMixin, secret is a StringField but you call base64.encodestring(association.secret) to store it.

This method expects and returns bytes so the ending .save() does not pass validation.

To fix it, there are 2 solutions:

• base64.encodestring(association.secret).decode() and store it like a string
• change secret as a BinaryField instead of StringField

Have a nice day :)
