no module named 'requests' when pip installing ssh-import-id

  • Last Update :
  • Techknowledgy :

The library's setup.py imports the library to get the version for inclusion in the setup() function call...

import os
from setuptools
import setup
from ssh_import_id
import __version__

... and the library tries to import requests which doesn't yet exist in the environment. This is ssh_import_id.__init__.py:

import argparse
import json
import logging
import os
import platform
import requests # <= == here
import stat
import subprocess
import sys
import tempfile

A fix has been added which works around needing to import the package to get the version...

import os
from setuptools
import setup
import sys

def read_version():
   # shove 'version'
into the path so we can
import it without going through
# ssh_import_id which has deps that wont be available at setup.py time.
# specifically, from 'ssh_import_id import version'
# will fail due to requests not available.
verdir = os.path.abspath(
   os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), "ssh_import_id"))
sys.path.insert(0, verdir)
import version
return version.VERSION

I'm using Heroku as a development server. When I try to push my Django application to Heroku it first tries to install my packages from the requirements.txt file.

requests == 2.18 .3
ssh -
   import -id == 5.5

The problem is I have a dependency on one of my packages with others. In the above packages, ssh-import-id needs requests package already installed. So when I push the app, pip fails to install and stops the deployment.

Copied!#👇️ in a virtual environment or using Python 2
pip install requests

#👇️
for python 3(could also be pip3 .10 depending on your version)
pip3 install requests

#👇️
if you get permissions error
sudo pip3 install requests

#👇️
if you don 't have pip in your PATH environment variable
python - m pip install requests

#👇️
for python 3(could also be pip3 .10 depending on your version)
python3 - m pip install requests

#👇️ alternative
for Ubuntu / Debian
sudo apt - get install python3 - requests

#👇️
if you get permissions error use pip3(NOT pip3.X)
sudo pip3 install requests
Copied!#👇️ make sure to use your version of Python, e.g.3.10
python3 - m pip install requests
Copied!#👇️ check
if you have requests installed
pip3 show requests

This is unrelated to the issue, but we strongly recommend you upgrade to the separate google-cloud-* packages. The google-cloud package hasn't been updated in quite some time now.,Could you check which version of requests and urllib3 is being installed? requests.packages has been around for a few years. See psf/requests#4071, Have a question about this project? Sign up for a free GitHub account to open an issue and contact its maintainers and the community. ,@arithmetic1728 Is there an additional package that needs to be installed for the SSL support?

If you are installing your Python packages manually, not using Anaconda / MiniConda or other prepackaged distribution, it’s easily to use the Python package management utility (PIP) to solve this issue. I’ll go through the steps in a Windows computer, those will be pretty quite similar in macOS or Linux distributions.,Solution: ensure that you have indeed closed your Python editor before importing the package. If still you get and error, reboot your Windows PC and try again.,Issue: you are still getting the import error even after executing the installation using pip or the Anaconda Environment Manager.,In this post i will show you how to easily troubleshoot requests import errors in your Python development environment of choice, being it Jupyter, PyCharm, Spyder etc’ and distribution.

  1. First, go ahead and close your Python editor environment.
  2. Then open your command line ( Windows: Start >> run >> cmd) or Terminal.
  3. Now type the following command:
pip install requests
  1. Next, go ahead and close your command or Terminal window.
  2. Now go ahead and reopen your Python editor and import requests.
import requests as re

Issue: When trying to import the requests module from the Python package repository, you encounter errors:

ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement requests(from versions: none)
