How to get urllib3 and requests working with jytho

问题:

Smart folks,

I would like to use the awesome requests module in my jython program. It installs and runs just fine in python but I cannot get it to install in jython. I have tried both Jython 2.7a2 and 2.7b1 on mac and ubuntu and get the same errors related to urllib3.

First installed ez_setup.py as mentioned in How can I use jython setup.py install?

Then run easy_install from within the jython bin directory results in exception:

NameError: name 'CERT_NONE' is not defined
gautam-mbp:bin gautam$ ./easy_install requests

Looks like problem related to urllib3 not working with jython. Appreciate help in getting requests (and urllib3 ) to work on jython. The same error shows up on ubuntu as well.

Thanks Gautam

Edit: as of May 2015, the current stable version of requests, 2.7.0, no longer suffers from the original error in Jython --Aprillion

The bug you are facing has been fixed some time ago in the development versions of urllib3 and requests.

As you won't be able to install it as it will blow up pip/easy_install with java.lang.RuntimeException: java.lang.RuntimeException: Class file too large! you have to run it directly from the source tree.

There you can fix the import bug by replacing all of the ssl_wrap_socket stuff at the end of requests/packages/urllib3/util.py with a dummy method like:

def ssl_wrap_socket(sock, keyfile=None, certfile=None, cert_reqs=None,
                    ca_certs=None, server_hostname=None,
                    ssl_version=None):
    raise Error('This is not meant to be called')

(If ssl support is a concern to you: it is broken at the moment anyways)

As jython is missing support for idna you have to remove this too. Go to line 290 of request/models.py and replace 'idna' by 'utf-8'.

So if you don't need to use ssl or idna those steps should work.

Followup: The relevant ssl bug in jython is tracked here: http://bugs.jython.org/issue2016

This problem has been resolved - please use Jython 2.7 beta 4 (or the final release).
