Bug 380137 – dev-python/requests: needs work to get test suite working

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Johan Bergström 2011-08-21 18:51:04 UTC]

Requests is an ISC Licensed HTTP library, written in Python, for human beings.

This thing is actually awesome. If you haven't checked it out, you should.

(ebuild will arrive soon)

Initial ebuild.

Just to keep you guys posted. I'm getting close to a 0.9.0 version bump with a working test suite. The issue lies in the suite requiring httpbin, which has this pretty requirements.txt: https://github.com/kennethreitz/httpbin/blob/master/requirements.txt

I'll churn away at it.

Wow, they rev a lot.. I could not get it to work for a script before (probably me failing not the package :-)) so let me have another go with this version.

It is much better. The same script now works well.

I see 0.10 is now in portage so shouldn't this bug be closed now?

No, because the ebuild in gentoo-x86 still doesn't handle tests.

[Comment 6 Mike Gilbert 2012-03-31 18:29:18 UTC]

FYI, I have submitted a patch so that the test suite is actually included in the pypi tarballs.

Just committed 0.12.1 with test suite, but see https://github.com/kennethreitz/requests/issues/596 for anyone interested.
