  import base64
  
  luaf = open('r:/123.lua', 'r', encoding='utf-8')  # script file path, explicitly specify encoding
  luatext = luaf.read()
  
  conn = http.client.HTTPConnection("192.168.31.72:46952")  # device address and port
  conn.request("POST", "/write_file", json.dumps({
      "filename": "lua/scripts/123.lua",
      "data": base64.b64encode(luatext.encode('utf-8')).decode('utf-8')  # encode to bytes, base64 encode, then decode to str
  }).encode('utf-8'))  # explicitly encode as UTF-8
  
  response = conn.getresponse()
  
  if response.status == 200:
      ret = json.loads(response.read().decode('utf-8'))  # explicitly decode as UTF-8
      print(ret['message'])
  else:
      print(response.status, response.reason)
      print(response.read().decode('utf-8'))  # explicitly decode as UTF-8
  
  conn.close()
