This looks to have been installed with brew. I'm not certain how likely it is that this will be easy to debug.

[jkbrzt]

Interesting. The formula specifies Requests 2.5.2 as a dependency which includes urllib3 with that function. I guess the import picks up another, older version of Requests installed elsewhere.

@janten what output do these two commands give you?

$ grep __version__  /usr/local/Cellar/httpie/0.9.2/libexec/vendor/lib/python2.7/site-packages/requests/__init__.py

$ grep disable_warnings /usr/local/Cellar/httpie/0.9.2/libexec/vendor/lib/python2.7/site-packages/requests/packages/urllib3/__init__.py

[janten]

Hello everyone and thanks for your help. @sigmavirus24 is correct, I installed httpie with brew install httpie. I recently installed iPython, maybe this has overwritten requests? In any case, here are the outputs of the commands you proposed.

$ pip freeze | grep requests
requests==2.3.0

$ grep __version__  /usr/local/Cellar/httpie/0.9.2/libexec/vendor/lib/python2.7/site-packages/requests/__init__.py
__version__ = '2.5.2'

$ grep disable_warnings /usr/local/Cellar/httpie/0.9.2/libexec/vendor/lib/python2.7/site-packages/requests/packages/urllib3/__init__.py
def disable_warnings(category=exceptions.HTTPWarning):

[jkbrzt]

@janten thanks, that looks good. The externally installed Requests should normally not collide, because the script Homebrew installs sets the correct $PYTHONPATH.

Would you also show the output of:

$ echo $PYTHONPATH

$ which http

$ cat "`which http`"

[janten]

$ echo $PYTHONPATH

(seems like $PYTHONPATH is not set)

$ which http
/usr/local/bin/http

$ cat "`which http`"
#!/bin/bash
PYTHONPATH="/usr/local/Cellar/httpie/0.9.2/libexec/lib/python2.7/site-packages:/usr/local/Cellar/httpie/0.9.2/libexec/vendor/lib/python2.7/site-packages" exec "/usr/local/Cellar/httpie/0.9.2/libexec/bin/http" "$@"

I'm having the same issue, with similar results:

pip freeze | grep requests
requests==2.3.0

grep __version__  /usr/local/Cellar/httpie/0.9.2_1/libexec/vendor/lib/python2.7/site-packages/requests/__init__.py
__version__ = '2.6.0'

grep disable_warnings /usr/local/Cellar/httpie/0.9.2_1/libexec/vendor/lib/python2.7/site-packages/requests/packages/urllib3/__init__.py
def disable_warnings(category=exceptions.HTTPWarning):

echo $PYTHONPATH

which http
/usr/local/bin/http

cat "`which http`"
#!/bin/bash
PYTHONPATH="/usr/local/Cellar/httpie/0.9.2_1/libexec/lib/python2.7/site-packages:/usr/local/Cellar/httpie/0.9.2_1/libexec/vendor/lib/python2.7/site-packages" exec "/usr/local/Cellar/httpie/0.9.2_1/libexec/bin/http" "$@"

Anything else I can do to help debug this?

[jkbrzt]

@jm3 could you try to uninstall the globally-installed Requests and try it again?

$ sudo pip uninstall requests

[jm3]

@jakubroztocil that did the trick, thanks! /cc @janten

[jkbrzt]

Great. I wonder if it would be possible to prevent this from happening by tweaking the formula.

[anentropic]

I'm getting this error without any homebrew install (pip installed, inside a virtualenv)

According to pip, httpie requires requests >= 2.3.0

I have requests 2.3.0 installed and it doesn't work

doing a pip install --upgrade httpie brings requests 2.7.0 and now it works

does the setup.py need updating?

[itkach]

I am getting the same error, also installed with pip in a virtualenv:

% pip install httpie

% pip freeze | grep requests

[jeanferri]

@anentropic may you have an older version of urllib3 without disable_warnings method and using it instead?

[sigmavirus24]

@hangtwenty if installing everything from pip, then that will not help anyone.

[floer32]

@sigmavirus24 OK nevermind, I was trying to relay something said by someone at work using Windows. I don't use Windows myself so I couldn't validate. Deleted comment so it won't mislead anyone

[jkbrzt]

This issue should be fixed in 0.9.3.

[bheemreddy181-zz]

locking httpie to 0.9.4 resolves this issue

 pip install httpie==0.9.4
