verbose flag causing error with traceback

[jwarchol]

While trying to debug a server issue today I used the verbose flag for the first time. That resulted in the following traceback:

$ http -v get http://jsonip.com/
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/bin/http", line 8, in <module>
    load_entry_point('httpie==0.2.0', 'console_scripts', 'http')()
  File "/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/httpie/__main__.py", line 115, in main
    output = _get_output(args, stdout_isatty, response)
  File "/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/httpie/__main__.py", line 89, in _get_output
    message=httpmessage.from_request(response.request),
  File "/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/httpie/httpmessage.py", line 28, in from_request

Please let me know what I can provide to help you replicate and understand this error scenario.

Thanks for the report.

I was able to reproduce it with the latest version of requests. What version do you have installed?

$ pip freeze | grep requests
requests==0.12.1

[jwarchol]

requests==0.12.1 here too

It looks like this commit is the culprit:

kennethreitz/requests@324336e

FWIW you can depend on the old version like so:

put this into a file called pie.txt:

httpie
requests<0.12.0

and then:

pip uninstall requests httpie
pip install -r pie.txt

You should be fine now, assuming nothing else required requests > 0.12.0 of course.

The solution recommended by @dch works well. Thanks!

This was just fixed in #50 and consequently made compatible with older versions of requests as well by d544ec3.
