Unable to Detect bridge

[croxis]

My v2 bridge isn't being detected when pressing discover hue bridge. I've delete and reinstalled both requests and this addon. I am using Kodi 17.6

It looks like bridge_id isn't being passed or collected correctly.

Info from logs:

I can second this issue. Not going to post my log, it has the exact same stacktrace as above.

I was able to work around this by editing bridge.py and hardcoding my bridge's IP address in the discover method:

def discover():                        
    #bridge_ip = _discover_upnp()      
    #if bridge_ip is None:             
    #    bridge_ip = _discover_nupnp() 
    bridge_ip = "INSERT YOUR BRIDGE'S IP HERE"            
    return bridge_ip
