Fix py3 encodings

[patchedsoul]

I resolved some minor string handling that was causing trace backs to be thrown. I reformatted the code to be pep8 compliant too. Since I was submitting this PR, I also swapped the now unmaintained 'pycrypto' for the drop-in replacement, 'pycryptodome'.

Thanks for submitting a PR 🙂

Does this maintain compatibility with Python 2? If not, could you also update the readme?

[m0ngr31]

Also I know PEP8 prefers 4 spaces, but it's too ugly for me. I'd prefer 2 spaces - easier to see what else has changed too :)

@patchedsoul do you mind responding?

[Michaelpalacce]

Is there any progress here? I am having the same issue.

@m0ngr31 is there a workaround?

[SystemFiles]

Also wondering if there is a workaround. I can't get the app to work at all using the provided docker-compose.
