HI @donpdonp , there are several problems here. Let's fix it one by one.

• rm -rf ~/.rainbow_config.json if it exists.
• sudo pip3 uninstall HTMLParser (python3 shouldn't use this package)
• Please uninstall rainbowstream and install it again, let me know if it still not work.

hi DTVD. .rainbow_config.json does not exist. The first run of rainbowstream complained of the missing HTMLParser. If I remove it, wont it simply give the same error again?

I saw the line
It seems that ~/.rainbow_config.json has wrong format :(
and think it might exists and has something wrong with it's format.

By default when install rainbowstream it will create a brand new ~/.rainbow_config.json file.
Does ls ~/.rainbow_config.json really show nothing ?

[donpdonp]

$ cat ~/.rainbow_config.json
cat: /home/donp/.rainbow_config.json: No such file or directory

I'm sorry, I will take time to look at this problem carefully :(
Thank you very much for reporting.
At this time please try the virtualenv solution instead

virtualenv -p /path/to/python3 venv3
source venv3/bin/activate
pip list # confirm that this is a brand new virtualenv
pip install rainbowstream

[donpdonp]

when using sudo pip3 install, the installer put the config file in root's home directory.

$ sudo ls -l /root/.rainbow_config.json
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 984 Jul 25 17:50 /root/.rainbow_config.json

I moved it to my home directory, but still get the same error

$ sudo mv /root/.rainbow_config.json ~
$ sudo chown donp .rainbow_config.json
$ rainbowstream

You are right about the installer, it's my bad.

And HTMLParser error is really strange.
In Python3 support module, I expect it would jump to except.

Can you try the same thing as the link above in your Python interpreter and let me know the result ?

Oops it's really strange. Could you specify which Linux (or OSX) you are using?
Could you try the following python code ?

https://bitbucket.org/pypa/distlib/pull-request/10/issue-36-use-htmlunescape-with-python-34/diff

the problem looks related to python 3.3 vs 3.4

[orakaro]

Thanks very much for pointing it out 👍 . I will add the support asap.

[donpdonp]

also I am using Gentoo which is not recommending python 3.4 yet.

I just released v0.4.9 Pleae update with pip install -U rainbowstream and let me know if it still not work

[donpdonp]

looks good!
