TypeError: Unicode-objects must be encoded before hashing

I was receiving the error at the bottom of this post when running server.py. I ended up having to edit auth.py and change the plain_text_password being passed to bcrypt to add .encode('utf8'). See the code sample below.

def get_hashed_password(plain_text_password):
    """Hashes a new password."""
    return bcrypt.hashpw(plain_text_password.encode('utf8'), bcrypt.gensalt())

def check_password(plain_text_password, hashed_password):
    """Compares a plain-text password to a hashed password."""
    return bcrypt.checkpw(plain_text_password.encode('utf8'), hashed_password)`

Traceback (most recent call last):
